This article provides an elaborate overview of central nervous system primitive neuroectodermal tumor. She has clearly sourced the information from reputable sources that are relevant throughout the article. The lead explains what PNET is like generally, and her sections elaborate on each aspect of the tumor. This tumor is notable in that it has many sources referring to this tumor and recognition from WHO. There are no effective treatments available for this tumor that is normally found in children; the prognosis is not favorable for the patients. Patients tend to survive for less than ten years after diagnosis. The images incorporated in the Wikipedia article allow me to visualize how the tumor looks like. The only thing that I would suggest is that the Risk factors could be divided into subsections such as age and pre-existing genetic conditions.
