研究室紹介
Professor Lee Kyu-Sik's research lab specializes in pediatric neuro-oncology, with a focus on primitive neuroectodermal tumors (PNETs) and Ewing's sarcoma family tumors (ESFTs), particularly their atypical presentations in young children. The lab investigates the clinical, radiological, and pathological features of these rare and aggressive pediatric brain and soft tissue tumors, emphasizing early diagnosis and improved understanding of tumor behavior in complex anatomical regions such as the cranium and intracranial structures. Research also extends to the histogenetic origins and molecular characteristics of these tumors, aiming to enhance treatment strategies and patient outcomes.

1INTRODUCTION: Primitive neuroectodermal tumor (PNET) is the most common primary malignant childhood brain tumor and is usually seen as an intraparenchymal lesion, typically arising in the cerebellum (as a medulloblastoma). Peripheral PNET (PPNET), a member of the Ewing's sarcoma (ES) family of tumors, is a tumor of putative parasympathetic neural histogenesis, typically developing in the soft tissue and skeletal structures of the trunk and extremities. We report here four cases of atypical prima
