AB  - The concept of primitive neuroectodermal tumour (PNET) has been evolving for many 
      years, as has its nomenclature. It was first described as a tumour arising in 
      peripheral nerve, when it was called neuroepithelioma. These tumours are part of 
      the differential diagnosis of malignant small round cell tumours, which include 
      Ewing's sarcoma, rhabdomyosarcoma, neuroblastoma and lymphoma, and which appear 
      as sheets of monotonous small round cells on light microscopy, staining dark blue 
      with haematoxylin and eosin. In the 1970's, reports of tumours displaying neural 
      features introduced new terms such as primitive neuroectodermal tumour and 
      peripheral neuroectodermal tumour. A relationship to the undifferentiated 
      primitive neuroectodermal tumours of the central nervous system in children was 
      assumed by the title of these tumours, although it was recognised that they were 
      not necessarily related to peripheral nerves.
