'''Small round cell tumours''' (SRCT), also '''small round blue cell tumours''' (SRBCT), are a group of tumours that have a similar histologic appearance.   
'''Small round cell tumours''' (SRCT), also '''small round blue cell tumours''' (SRBCT), are a group of tumours that have a similar histologic appearance.   


It is a group of tumours that is seen more often in childhood than adulthood.
==General==
*Group of tumours that is typically seen in childhood and younger adults.
*Most common small round cell tumour is non-Hodgkin lymphoma.<ref name=pmid23998069/>
