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: ETMR is an umbrella term for tumors formerly known as:[1]
- Embryonal tumour with abundant neuropil and true rosettes [2]
- Ependymoblastoma [3]
- Medulloepithelioma[4]
Clinical presentation
- Usu. age <4 years.
- 70% supratentorial, 30% infratentorial.
- Raised intracranial pressure.
Imaging
- Usu. enhancing.
- Rarely cysts, calcifications.
- Widespread infiltration.
Microscopy
- Rosettes (often multilayered).
- Small cells.
- Fibrillar zones (neuropil-like areas).
- Neoplastic ganglion cells.
- Papillar and tubular growth (primitive neural tubes).
- PAS-positive membranes.
- Glial/neuronal maturation after treatment (rare).
ETMR, medulloepithelioma type.
ETMR, ependymoblastoma type.
ETMR, poorly undifferentiated cells.
ETMR, ganglion cells.
