Intradural lumbosacral malignant extrarenal rhabdoid tumor: a case report.
Child's Nervous System : ChNS : Official Journal of the International Society for Pediatric Neurosurgery 2018 January
BACKGROUND: Rhabdoid tumors are highly malignant tumors predominantly affecting the pediatric population. When these tumors occur outside of the kidneys, they are referred to as malignant extrarenal rhabdoid tumors (MERT), a rare highly aggressive subtype. Less commonly, these tumors involve the neuro-axis.
OBJECTIVE: Here we present a case of a 15-year-old girl with intradural MERT of the lumbosacral spine who presented with back pain, sudden worsening of lower extremity strength, and complete loss of bowel and bladder control.
RESULTS: The patient's tumor showed loss of INI-1 and negative staining for cytokeratin AE1AE3, CD99, and SOX10.
CONCLUSIONS: To our knowledge, there are no previous case reports of MERT with intradural lumbosacral spinal involvement.
