WHAT DOES PPNET MEAN IN ENGLISH?

Primitive neuroectodermal tumor

Primitive Neuroectodermal Tumor is a malignant neural crest tumor. It is a rare tumor, usually occurring in children and young adults under 25 years of age. The overall 5 year survival rate is about 53%. It gets its name because the majority of the cells in the tumor are derived from neuroectoderm, but have not developed and differentiated in the way a normal neuron would, and so the cells appear "primitive". PNET belongs to the Ewing family of tumors.
