RESUMEN
Although treatment-related secondary malignancies are rare, they are important problems after the treatment of childhood malignant diseases. Irradiation-induced sarcomas are the development of sarcoma different from the primary tumor after a latent period of ≥3 years or more in the radiotherapy field. Desmoid tumor is extremely rare as irradiation-induced tumor. A 7.5-year-old girl was referred to our hospital after a subtotal mass excision for a solid lesion with a cystic component located in the pineal gland. Pathologic examination revealed pineoblastoma. After surgery, craniospinal radiotherapy, and chemotherapy consisting of vincristine, cisplatin, and etoposide were performed. Painless swelling in the left parieto-occipital region ~75 months after the end of the treatment developed in the patient. A mass was detected in the intracranial but extra-axial region by radiologic imaging methods. Due to the total removal of the mass and the absence of a tumor in the surgical margins, she was followed up without additional treatment. The pathologic diagnosis was a desmoid tumor. She was followed up disease free for ~7 years after the primary tumor and ~7 months after the secondary tumor. Treatment-related desmoid tumor development after treatment for a central nervous system tumor in a child is extremely rare.
