Meningioangiomatosis is a rare histologically distinct abnormality that is occasionally associated with intracranial meningioma. The rhabdoid variant of meningioma is also uncommon and is classified as a World Health Organization Grade III tumour. We report a case of meningioangiomatosis in conjunction with a meningioma with prominent rhabdoid features, in an infant male who underwent complete surgical resection of the lesion. The patient has been followed up for 6 years with no disease recurrence. To our knowledge, this is the first report in the literature describing meningioangiomatosis combined with a meningioma with rhabdoid features.

Background: Central nervous system (CNS) tumors lead to cancer-related mortality in children. Genetic ancestry-associated cancer prevalence and outcomes have been studied, but is limited.
Methods: We performed genetic ancestry prediction in 1,452 pediatric patients with paired normal and tumor whole genome sequencing from the Open Pediatric Cancer (OpenPedCan) project to evaluate the influence of reported race and ethnicity and ancestry-based genetic superpopulations on tumor histology, molecular subtype, survival, and treatment.

Introduction: Spinal tumors (ST) often result in dire prognosis, carrying risks such as permanent paralysis, sensory loss, and sphincter dysfunction. Data on their incidence and etiology in pediatric populations are markedly scant. Our study investigates the etiology, clinical manifestation, treatment, and outcomes of pediatric ST.
