Abstract
Insomnia is a common symptom in children with malignant diseases and especially in children with tumors of the central nervous system (CNS). However, little attention is paid this complication during the therapy of malignant neoplasms. Insomnia violates the quality of life of children and their immediate surroundings. In this article, the etiology, pathogenesis, and diagnostics are discussed in detail, and methods for treating this pathology are presented with two clinical cases confirming the diverse nature of insomnia in CNS tumors. Thus, the importance of an individual approach to the therapy of insomnia is emphasized.
