title: [Cerebral atypical rhabdoid/teratoid tumor: report of two cases].
abstract: The cerebral atypical rhabdoid/teratoid tumor constitutes one of the most aggressive tumors of children. Such tumors are equally characterized by a critically and speedly mortal development. The optimal management of such tumors remains unknown. The authors report two cases of cerebral atypical rhabdoid teratoid tumor in 8- and 10-year girls and discuss the histological features, immunochemistry study, prognosis and treatment of these rare tumors.
