Molecular analyses have shown that tumours diagnosed as supratentorial primitive neuro-ectodermal tumours of the central nervous system (CNS-PNETs) in the past represent a heterogenous group of rare childhood tumours including high-grade gliomas (HGG), ependymomas, atypical teratoid/rhabdoid tumours (AT/RT), CNS neuroblastoma with forkhead box R2 (FOXR2) activation and embryonal tumour with multi-layered rosettes (ETMR). This evidence concerns the gene FOXR2 and glioma.
