Abstract:
Atypical teratoid/rhabdoid tumor (AT/RT) is a rare malignancy located primarily in infratentorial or subcortical areas with a poor prognosis, and rarely in the lateral ventricle with a very poor prognosis. So far, only 6 cases of AT/RT in lateral ventricle have been reported in China. This article reports the diagnosis and treatment of four children with AT/RT in the lateral ventricle, and discusses the clinical manifestations, differentiation and diagnosis, treatment and prognosis of the disease through literature review, in order to improve clinicians' understanding of the disease and reduce missed diagnosis and misdiagnosis.
