  Embryonal tumors start in early forms of nerve cells in the central nervous system. About 10% to 20% of brain tumors in children are embryonal tumors. They are more common in younger children than older ones, and are rare in adults. Embryonal tumors tend to grow quickly and often spread throughout the CSF pathways. […] Medulloblastomas are the most common type of embryonal tumor. These tumors start in the cerebellum. There are several different types of medulloblastomas, based on how the tumor cells look under a microscope, and on which gene mutations the cells have. Some types of medulloblastoma tend to have a better outlook than others, and doctors are now trying to determine how this might affect treatment. […] Medulloblastomas can often be treated effectively and tend to have a better outlook than embryonal tumors in other parts of the brain. […] Other, less common types of embryonal tumors include: Medulloepithelioma, Atypical teratoid/rhabdoid tumor (ATRT), Embryonal tumor with multilayered rosettes. […] In the past, many embryonal tumors were referred to as primitive neuroectodermal tumors (PNETs).

  https://www.cancerresearchuk.org/about-cancer/brain-tumours/types/embryonal-tumours

  Embryonal tumours can start anywhere in the brain or the spinal cord. They are likely to grow quickly and can spread through the cerebrospinal fluid to other parts of the brain and the spinal cord (high grade tumour). […] Your treatment depends on the type of embryonal tumour you have and whether it has spread to other parts of the brain. The main treatments for embryonal tumours are: surgery, radiotherapy, chemotherapy. […] Surgery is usually the first treatment you have. A highly specialised doctor (neurosurgeon) removes as much of the tumour as possible. The exact type of surgery you have depends on where the tumour is. […] You might have radiotherapy to the brain and sometimes the whole of the spinal cord. You usually have it after surgery. Radiotherapy uses high energy x-rays to destroy tumour cells. This reduces the risk of the embryonal tumour coming back.

  If your child has symptoms that suggest medulloblastoma, another type of CNS embryonal tumor, or pineoblastoma, the doctor will need to find out if these are due to cancer or another problem. They will ask about your child’s personal and family health history and do a physical exam. Depending on the results, they may recommend other tests. If your child is diagnosed with medulloblastoma, another type of CNS embryonal tumor, or pineoblastoma, the results of these tests will help you and your child’s doctor plan treatment. […] The tests used to diagnose medulloblastoma, other CNS embryonal tumors, and pineoblastoma may include: MRI (magnetic resonance imaging) of the brain and spinal cord with gadolinium; CT scan (CAT scan); lumbar puncture. […] If doctors think your child may have medulloblastoma, another type of CNS embryonal tumor, or pineoblastoma, a biopsy may be done. The biopsy is done by removing part of the skull and using a needle to remove a sample of tissue.

  Embryonal brain tumours develop from cells left over from when the embryo was forming in the womb, but have remained in the brain after the child has been born. The cells should be harmless, but can sometimes become cancerous. […] Surgery is usually the first type of treatment offered to patients with embryonal tumours, followed by chemotherapy. Patients over 3 years old may also be offered radiotherapy. […] The prognosis for each type of embryonal tumour is included in the relevant section above, but overall survival rates for embryonal tumours (not including medulloblastoma) are generally poor, ranging from less than 5% to 50% of patients surviving more than 5 years from diagnosis. […] Signs and symptoms of embryonal tumours depend upon where the tumour has developed. Common symptoms include headaches, seizures, muscular weakness or partial paralysis of facial muscles, and muscular weakness or partial paralysis on one side of the body. […] The most reliable way to diagnose any kind of brain tumour is initially by an MRI scan and then by taking a biopsy (a small sample of the tumour, removed during neurosurgery) for analysis in a laboratory.

  Many brain and spinal cord tumors are rare and aggressive but difficult to categorize. […] If your child has been diagnosed with any of these, you have come to the right place. We will guide you to a better understanding of their diagnosis. […] These tumors are all aggressive. Each responds differently to treatment. We are redefining how to treat these tumors. We intensify and change the therapy for the most aggressive tumors. For those with a better prognosis, we can decrease therapy. This reduces side effects. […] Because there are different types, molecular testing must occur on the tumor to get the correct diagnosis and determine the best treatment. […] Treatment may include surgery followed by radiation and chemotherapy: Surgery removes part or all of the tumor tissue. This takes out cancerous tissue and helps determine the type of tumor. Radiation is an important part of treatment for all of these tumors. The dose, location, and timing of radiation will depend on many factors. These include your child’s age, type of tumor, and if it has spread to other parts of the brain or spine. Chemotherapy (chemo) is important in the treatment of these tumors. The exact type of chemotherapy and the length of treatment will depend on your child’s age and type of tumor.
