Abstract excerpt

The desmoplastic cerebral astrocytoma of infancy (DCAI) is a rare tumor that presents as a large hemispheric mass in infants. Despite an ominous histologic picture that may resemble a sarcoma, the tumor is astrocytic and has a good prognosis. We present two cases of DCAI, with histopathologic, immunohistochemical, ultrastructural, and molecular genetic data, and draw the following conclusions: (1) the diagnosis...
