What is anaplastic ependymoma?
Anaplastic ependymoma is a tumor that arises from the ependyma, which is a tissue of the central nervous system. Anaplastic tumors are usually faster growing and malignant compared to myxopapillary ependymoma (MPE) tumors. In pediatric cases, the tumor is usually located in the brain.
