Embryonal tumour with abundant neuropil and true rosettes, abbreviated ETANTR, is a very rare neuropathology tumour reported only in children. It is currently not listed in the WHO CNS tumour classification. There is consens, to group this entity together with ependymoblastomas under the umbrella term embryonal tumour with multilayered rosettes (ETMR).[1]
