Congenital brain tumors are rare accounting for 0.5%–1.9% of all pediatric brain tumors. While different criteria have been used to classify a tumor as congenital, those diagnosed prior to 6 months of age are considered to be “probably” congenital in origin. We performed an institutional review of all central nervous system (CNS) tumors (surgical and autopsy specimens from 1990 to 2019) in patients...
We report on a case of EWSR1‐PATZ1 rearranged brain tumor occurring in a 17 month‐old child, originally interpreted as an infantile glioblastoma. Our case shows important analogies with the 2 previously reported cases, including the intraventricular location, the histologic appearance (pushing borders, oligodendrocyte‐like morphology, rich vascular network) and the glioneural immunophenotype, supporting...
Recent epigenomic analyses have revealed the existence of a new DNA methylation class (MC) of infant‐type hemispheric glioma (IHG). Like desmoplastic infantile ganglioglioma/astrocytoma (DIG/DIA), these tumors mainly affect infants and are supratentorial. While DIG/DIA is characterized by BRAF or RAF1 alterations, IHG has been shown to have receptor tyrosine kinase (RTK) gene fusions (ALK, ROS1, NTRK1/2/3...
