Embryonal tumour with multilayered rosettes, abbreviated ETMR, is a very rare neuropathology embryonal tumour with aggressive behaviour.

General

  • Extremely rare.
  • ETMR historically had been termed CNS PNET.
  • The WHO2016 CNS classification contains two groups:
    • Embryonal tumour with multilayered rosettes, C19MC-altered.
    • Embryonal tumour with multilayered rosettes, NOS.

Note:

Clinical presentation

  • Usu. age <4 years.
  • 70% supratentorial, 30% infratentorial.
  • Raised intracranial pressure.

Imaging

  • Usu. enhancing.
  • Rarely cysts, calcifications.
  • Widespread infiltration.

IHC

  • LIN28+ve.
