Atypical teratoid rhabdoid tumours (ATRT) are rare, arising typically in childhood. ATRT arising as a secondary tumour in children treated for acute lymphoblastic leukaemia have not been reported so far. We report a case of ATRT in a 17-year-old boy, 11 years after he was treatment for acute lymphoblastic leukaemia with cranial radiation.
非典型畸胎样横纹肌样瘤(ATRT)很罕见,通常发生于儿童期。急性淋巴细胞白血病治疗后的儿童中出现的继发性ATRT此前尚无报道。我们报告了1例17岁男孩患ATRT的病例,该男孩在接受急性淋巴细胞白血病头颅放疗11年后发病。
