Atypical teratoid rhabdoid tumor (ATRT) is a rare primary malignant tumor of the central nervous system. Little knowledge is available about natural history, behavior, prognosis, and best management guidelines of such tumor. Its occurrence in adults is very rare and more predominant in females. Locations in adults are mainly cerebral hemispheres, but recently, more cases are reported in sellar/suprasellar cisterns. We are reporting a case of purely suprasellar ATRT of a middle aged male who presented initially with diabetes insipidus (DI).
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
