## Abstract The __SMARCB1__ gene status in 50 patients with atypical teratoid rhabdoid tumor and/or malignant rhabdoid tumor recruited to a German registry was prospectively analyzed with FISH and PCR. Altogether we found 40 __SMARCB1__ mutations in 28 patients. Two patients were positive for SMARC

## Abstract Beckwith–Wiedemann syndrome (BWS) is a genetic disorder associated with an increased risk of childhood tumors. Here we describe a patient with BWS who developed a central nervous system atypical teratoid/rhabdoid tumor (AT/RT). To our knowledge, despite the known cancer predisposition,
Atypical teratoma/rhabdoid tumor (AT/RT) of the central nervous system is a highly malignant neoplasm in infants and early childhood. Approximately one third of patients develop intracranial dissemination with involvement of cerebral spinal fluid (CSF). The clinical, radiological, and pathological f
## Abstract ## BACKGROUND: Atypical teratoid/rhaboid tumors (AT/RTs) and extracranial malignant rhabdoid tumors are highly malignant neoplasms with a dismal prognosis. These tumors predominantly affect infants and targeted, adjuvant treatment approaches would be highly desirable. ## METHODS: In
## Abstract Chromosome‐specific low copy repeats (LCRs) are implicated in several clinically significant microdeletion and microduplication syndromes. The well‐recognized phenotype of DiGeorge/velocardiofacial syndrome (DG/VCF) results from deletions of the long arm of chromosome 22 (22q11.2) media
We describe a four-month-old child who presented with an atypical teratoid/rhabdoid tumor of the brain and subsequently developed a renal rhabdoid tumor. Distinct histologic features, immunophenotypic profiles, and deletions of chromosome 22 were supportive of two primary tumors. An identical mutati
