## Abstract Supratentorial primitive neuroectodermal tumors (stPNETs) and medulloblastomas have long been thought to arise from a common cell type in the subventricular germinal matrix. Because of the infrequent occurrence of stPNETs, little is known about their genetic background. Here, we perform
## Abstract ## BACKGROUND Radiation induced intracranial neoplasms are uncommon but well described and include gliomas, meningiomas, and sarcomas. The development of primitive neuroectodermal tumors (PNETs) following prophylactic craniospinal irradiation has been infrequently reported previously.
## Abstract We previously reported an i(17q) as a nonβrandom finding in childhood primitive neuroectodermal tumors (PNETs) of the central nervous system. In the present study, we describe a twoβcolor interphase fluorescence in situ hybridization (FISH) assay for detection of chromosome 17 abnormali
