Central Nervous System Embryonal Carcinoma

Preferred Label : Central Nervous System Embryonal Carcinoma;

NCIt synonyms : Embryonal Carcinoma of CNS; Embryonal Carcinoma of the Central Nervous System; Embryonal Carcinoma of the CNS;

NCIt definition : A malignant germ cell tumor of the central nervous system composed of large cells that proliferate in cohesive nests and sheets. In rare occasions, tumor cells may replicate the structure of the early embryo, forming embryoid bodies replete with germ discs and miniature amniotic cavities. Additional morphologic characteristics include enlarged nucleoli, abundant clear to somewhat violet-hued cytoplasm, a high mitotic rate and zones of coagulative necrosis. (Adapted from WHO);

Neoplastic status : Malignant;
