摘要：
Atypical teratoid/rhabdoid tumors (AT/RTs) are malignant intracranial neoplasms that usually occur in the posterior fossa of children. They are characterized by cells with paranuclear rhabdoid inclusions, a mesenchymal and epithelial immunohistochemical profile, and 22q deletions with inactivation of the IN11/hSNF5 gene. Although they usually occur in young children, AT/RTs are being recognized in adults with increasing frequency. We report the cytologic features of an AT/RT from the cerebellum of a 45-year-old man and discuss the differential diagnosis in adults. (C) 2004 Wiley-Liss. Inc.
