TLDR
Although the prognosis for DNT is generally favorable, the pathology can lead to poor outcomes in rare cases, and common demographic factors, treatment with surgery, and the extent of surgical resection did not show significant associations with OS.About:

Sabino Luzzi,Sabino Luzzi,Angela Elia,Mattia Del Maestro,Samer K. Elbabaa,Sergio Carnevale,Francesco Guerrini,Massimo Caulo,Patrizia Morbini,Renato Galzio +9 more
TL;DR: An updated and comprehensive review on dysembryoplastic neuroepithelial tumor (DNET) focusing on differential diagnosis, atypical presentation, seizure outcome, and risk of malignant transformation is conducted.

TL;DR: Clinical factors such as younger age, Caucasian race, and presence of surgery are significant independent factors for overall survival in patients with HBs, though analysis regarding extent of surgery did not produce a meaningful relationship.

A Multi-Institutional Analysis of Factors Influencing Surgical Outcomes for Patients with Newly Diagnosed Grade I Gliomas

Leuthardt,Keith M. Rich,Gregory J. Zipfel,Jeffrey R. Leonard,Daniel P. Cahill,Mitesh V. Shah,Steven R Abram,John J. Evans,Yu Tao,Michael R. Chicoine +20 more
TL;DR: Patients with grade I gliomas have extended OS and PFS, which correlates positively with increasing EOR, especially for patients with pilocytic astrocytoma, and intraoperative MRI may increase EOR but was not independently associated with increased OS or PFS.

Satellite lesions of DNET: implications for seizure and tumor control after resection
Jeyul Yang,Seung-Ki Kim,Ki Joong Kim,Jong Hee Chae,Byung Chan Lim,Kyu-Chang Wang,Sung Hye Park,Ji Hoon Phi +7 more
TL;DR: A thorough review identifying satellite lesions preoperatively and using intraoperative neuronavigation, electrocorticography (ECoG) or intraoperative ultrasonography is warranted to accomplish the wide resection of tumors with accompanying satellite lesions.

TL;DR: The identification of DNT has therapeutic and prognostic implications because aggressive therapy can be avoided, thus sparing these young patients the deleterious long term effects of radio- or chemotherapy.

Epidemiology of central nervous system tumors in childhood and adolescence based on the new WHO classification
TL;DR: Pediatric brain tumors vary considerably in their histological, topographical and gender distribution throughout childhood and adolescence, reflecting different dynamics of individual tumor entities as well as a susceptibility to their occurrence during certain periods of a child’s life.

TL;DR: Although the majority of children remain seizure free after surgical excision of DNT, a considerable number have recurrent seizures, and short-term outcome is influenced by older age at surgery and longer duration of epilepsy.

TL;DR: This case is the first documented example of malignant transformation of a DNT of the complex form and serves as a warning of the potential formalignant transformation in this entity, which has been traditionally accepted as benign.

TL;DR: This study supports the existence of a range of subtypes of DNT some with overlapping features with ganglioglioma; molecular genetic abnormalities were not predictive of atypical behavior.
