Atypical teratoid/rhabdoid tumour
Diagnosis in short

AT/RT. H&E stain.

LM cellular tumour with small round cells usu. with a prominent nucleolus, rhabdoid cells (eosinophilic granular cytoplasm + eccentric nucleus), mitoses. +/-necrosis (common)
LM DDx primitive neuroectodermal tumour (PNET), medulloblastoma, diffuse astrocytoma, choroid plexus carcinoma, embryonal carcinoma
IHC INI1 -ve, S-100 +ve, EMA +ve, SMA +ve
Site CNS - typically supratentorial

Clinical history usu. <3 years olds, occasionally adults
Prevalence uncommon - esp. in adults
Prognosis very poor

Atypical teratoid/rhabdoid tumour, abbreviated AT/RT, is malignant tumour usually found supratentorially.

It may be written atypical teratoid rhabdoid tumour (abbreviated ATRT) or atypical teratoid-rhabdoid tumour (abbreviated AT-RT).

It should not be confused with the extrarenal malignant rhabdoid tumour.

General

  • Usually supratentorial, occasionally in posterior fossa, case reports of spinal cord.
  • Individuals usually <3 years old, uncommon in adults.[1]
  • Prognosis very poor, but long-term survivors reported.[2]

Microscopic

Features:

  • Cellular.
  • Small round cells usu. with a prominent nucleolus.
  • Rhabdoid cells.
    • Cells with eosinophilic granular cytoplasm + eccentric nucleus.
  • Mitoses.
  • +/-Necrosis (common).

IHC

  • INI1-ve (AKA BAF-47, AKA SMARCB1 - the HGNC symbol[3]) - virtually diagnostic (4/4 cases[4]).
    • Endothelial cells +ve control.
  • S-100 +ve (4/4 cases[4]).
    • Few other brain tumours express it.
  • Vimentin +ve - perinuclear condensation (4/4 cases[4]).
  • LIN28 focally +ve [5]

Others:

  • GFAP +ve (focal - in tumour cells).
  • EMA +ve - patchy cytoplasmic (4/4 cases[4]).
  • Smooth muscle actin +ve.(4/4 cases[4]). [6]
  • Cytokeratin +ve.[7]
  • Kir 7.1 occasionally +ve[8]

Molecular

  • Almost all cases associated with SMARCB1 abberations.[9]
  • Single cases with SMARCA4 mutation.[10]
  • Two molecular subgroups:[11]
    • Group 1: usu. supratentorial, ASCL1-positive: high-risk.
    • Group 2: usu. infratentorial, BMP-signalling: very high risk.
