摘要

Embryonal tumor with abundant neuropil and true rosettes has been recently defined as a distinct central nervous system embryonal neoplasm, although it was initially regarded as a subtype of central nervous system primitive neuroectodermal tumor. To date 70 cases have been reported. We have performed a literature review and we present 2 new cases. Analysis of the reported data revealed that radiotherapy, tumor excision and high-dose adjuvant chemotherapy with sequential autologous hematopoietic stem cell rescue have a prognostic significance.
