Abstract

In 1995, as a result of the observation of Rhabdoid elements among the other components of a Teratoid/Rhabdoid tumor (TRT), a new nomenclature was introduced, Atypical Teratoid/Rhabdoid Tumor (ATRT) of infancy and childhood. We report the clinical history and radiological findings in a child affected by central nervous system (CNS) ATRT.
