Adult AT/RTs predominantly arise in female patients and in supratentorial location. Midline structures, including the sellar region, are the most affected sites, especially among females aged > 40 years. Male gender is more prevalent between the age of 18 and 40 years and more frequently associated with non-midline tumors. Factors significantly associated with better prognosis are patient's age (< 40 years), combined radio-chemotherapy adjuvant approach and Ki-67 score < 40%.
