Embryonic tumors of the central nervous system (CNS) - high quality neoplasms originating from fetal cells in the CNS - develop in people of all ages, but mostly in infants and children. According to the WHO tumour classification, they include a medulla blastoma, embryonic tumour, medullaepithelioma, atypical teratoid/rabdoid tumour, etc. The vast majority of EOCNS in adult practice is represented by a medullablastoma and an embryonic tumour, so the focus was on the analysis of these tumours. Atypical teratoid/rabdoid tumour, on the contrary, is very rare; this article only describes clinical cases. At present, there are no recommendations and protocols for treatment of EOCNS in the adult population both in the Republic of Belarus and in neighboring countries. Patients are more often treated using paediatric protocols. In order to improve the quality of neurooncological care for the adult population, it is necessary to develop recommendations for treatment of patients with EOCNS. The implementation of this task will not be considered complete without analysis of the current morbidity picture.
