Central nervous system rhabdoid tumors(CNS RTs) were divided into INI1 protein-negative and -positive groups. All INI1-negative RTs were consistent with atypical teratoid rhabdoid tumor (AT/RT) in the histopathological features. Moreover, there were a few cases with combined tumors composed of INI1-positive glioma and INI1-negative rhabdoid tumors. In the INI1-positive RTs, high-grade gliomas with epithelioid/rhabdoid cells were identified, and the presence of INI1-positive AT/RT was possibly considered.
