Medulloblastoma

Preferred Label : Medulloblastoma;

NCIt related terms : Medulloblastomas; MEDULLOBLASTOMA, MALIGNANT; CNS, medulloblastoma;

NCIt definition : A malignant, invasive embryonal neoplasm arising from the cerebellum or posterior fossa. It occurs predominantly in children and has the tendency to metastasize via the cerebrospinal fluid pathways. Signs and symptoms include truncal ataxia, disturbed gait, lethargy, headache, and vomiting. There are four histologic variants: classic medulloblastoma, large cell/anaplastic medulloblastoma, desmoplastic/nodular medulloblastoma, and medulloblastoma with extensive nodularity.;

Alternative definition : NICHD: A rapidly progressive cancer of the brain that originates in the cerebellum.; NCI-GLOSS: A malignant brain tumor that begins in the lower part of the brain and that can spread to the spine or to other parts of the body. Medulloblastomas are a type of primitive neuroectodermal tumor (PNET).; CDISC: A malignant, invasive embryonal neoplasm arising from the cerebellum.;

Neoplastic status : Malignant;
