Atypical teratoid rhabdoid tumours (ATRT) are rare, arising typically in childhood. ATRT arising as a secondary tumour in children treated for acute lymphoblastic leukaemia have not been reported so far. We report a case of ATRT in a 17-year-old boy, 11 years after he was treatment for acute lymphoblastic leukaemia with cranial radiation.
