Intracranial atypical teratoid rhabdoid tumor is an uncommon malignancy with a dismal outcome. Commonly misdiagnosed over the decades as primitive neuroectodermal tumor of the brain, it has dramatically different biological behavior.
We herein report a case series of five patients diagnosed and treated as atypical teratoid rhabdoid tumor of the brain in a major cancer center in north India. We have also analyzed the clinical, histopathological, and radiological features and the therapeutic options of this enigmatic tumor.
颅内非典型畸胎样横纹肌样瘤是一种罕见的恶性肿瘤,预后不佳。在过去几十年中,它常被误诊为脑原始神经外胚层肿瘤,但其生物学行为却截然不同。
我们在此报告在印度北部一家大型癌症中心诊断并治疗的5例脑非典型畸胎样横纹肌样瘤患者的病例系列。我们还分析了这种神秘肿瘤的临床、组织病理学和放射学特征以及治疗选择。
