Article Synopsis
- Atypical teratoid/rhabdoid tumor (AT/RT) is a rare brain cancer mainly found in children, but can appear in adults, especially in the sellar region of middle-aged women.
- A case study is presented of a 51-year-old woman with AT/RT who had headaches and left ptosis, leading to a diagnosis and treatment that included surgery, radiation, and chemotherapy.
- Despite treatment, the patient developed lung metastases and passed away seven months post-diagnosis, highlighting the need for further awareness of AT/RT in adults, particularly when considering sellar masses.
