Abstract

Key Clinical Message: We herein present atypical histologic and immunohistochemical features of DSRCT. The various differential diagnoses of DSRCT may occasionally generate confusion. Cytogenetic analysis may solve diagnostic dilemmas such as that in our case. Further studies are required to establish a standard treatment for DSRCT.
