摘要
We describe a case of genetically proven atypical teratoid/rhabdoid tumor (ATRT), showing ultrastructural evidence of ependymal differentiation. Such differentiation has not been reported so far in ATRT. This finding supports the concept that ATRTs as the majority of central nervous system embryonal tumors may derive from an immature and pluripotent neuroectodermal cell capable of differentiating along multiple lineages.
