Local recurrence of malignant tumor of kidney T2: Renal tumor > 7.0 cm in greatest dimension limited to the kidney
(Definition/Background Information) Extrarenal Rhabdoid Tumor (ERRT) is an extremely infrequent, aggressive, and high-grade tumor. The tumor is usually observed in infants and very young children ERRT affects any region outside of the kidneys (hence the term ‘extrarenal’), like the liver, central nervous system (CNS), and heart

Cell study and genetic analysis have implicated certain anomalies in chromosome 22. Such anomalies include a loss of genetic material and gene mutation. These gene abnormalities are primary factors responsible for Extrarenal Rhabdoid Tumor development
Chemotherapy and to some extent surgery is used to treat the tumor. Radiation therapy may cause certain adverse effects in young children, and so, is not commonly used. ERRT cancer, which affects the soft tissues, is a highly malignant and often fatal illness.

Although usually a brain tumor, AT/RT can occur anywhere in the central nervous system (CNS) including the spinal cord. About 60% will be in the posterior cranial fossa (particularly the cerebellum). One review estimated 52% posterior fossa, 39% sPNET (supratentorial primitive neuroectodermal tumors), 5% pineal, 2% spinal, and 2% multi-focal.
This means that while there is no exact mapping between this ICD10 code C72.9 and a single ICD9 code, 192.9 is an approximate match for comparison and conversion purposes.
