Diffuse infiltrating tumour with the molecular profile of an atypical teratoid rhabdoid tumour (AT/RT SHH-1B) in an adult patient

Neuropathol Appl Neurobiol. 2024 Jun;50(3):e12983. doi: 10.1111/nan.12983.

Abstract

We describe a 46-year-old patient with an IDH-wildtype diffusely infiltrating atypical teratoid/rhabdoid tumour (AT/RT), SHH-1B molecular subtype. The unusual histology and subsequent diagnosis in an adult patient will be discussed.

Keywords: atypical teratoid/rhabdoid tumour; methylation sequencing; molecular techniques; neuro‐oncology.
