A germline variant of TP53 in paediatric diffuse leptomeningeal glioneuronal tumour.

Purpose: Diffuse leptomeningeal glioneuronal tumour (DLGNT) is an extremely rare tumour involving the neuroaxis. At present, its exact pathogenesis and associated factors remain incompletely characterised. Recent molecular investigations in a small cohort have offered some insights into this disease.

Primary paediatric epidural sarcomas: molecular exploration of three cases.

Background: Primary paediatric epidural sarcomas are extremely rare. Overall, there remains a paucity of knowledge in paediatric epidural sarcomas owing to the infrequent number of cases. The Archer FusionPlex Sarcoma Kit (ArcherDX, Inc) is a next-generation sequencing assay that has been reported to be a useful technique to detect recurrent fusion in sarcomas.
