Abstract

Primary intracranial sarcoma, DICER1‐mutant is a recently described central nervous system tumour with specific genomic and DNA‐methylation profiles. Although some of its histological features (focal spindle‐cell morphology, intracytoplasmic eosinophilic granules, and focal heterologous differentiation) are common across most reported cases, the presence of significant histological variability and the lack of differentiation pose diagnostic challenges. We aim to further define the immunoprofile of this tumor.
