Secondary supratentorial primitive neuroectodermal tumor following irradiation in a patient with low-grade astrocytoma.

Neuroimaging was unable to distinguish between a recurrence of the original neoplasm and the development of a new, distinct entity. Pathologic review assisted by immunohistochemical staining, however, revealed a high-grade PNET. Although rare, ...

A 16-year-old boy presented with an unusual case of a supratentorial, extraaxial small round blue cell tumor of the central nervous system, which was most likely a primitive neuroectodermal tumor (PNET). Preoperative computed tomography and magnetic resonance imaging showed a large multistage hematoma in the left central region. Intraoperatively, a small, superficial tumorous lesion was found b...
متن کاملExtraneural Supratentorial Primitive Neuroectodermal Tumor Metastasis: An Adult Case Report
Primitive neuroectodermal tumor (PNET) is anundifferentiated neoplasm arising from the germinal matrix of the primitive neural tube. It is predominantly an infratentorial tumor of childhood. Adult supratentorial PNETs are less common and extraneural metastasis are extremely unusual. Only five sporadic cases were reported in the international literature.1–6 In this article, we report a rare case...
