Rosette‐forming glioneuronal tumour (RGNT) is a rare central nervous system (CNS) World Health Organization (WHO) grade 1 brain neoplasm. According to the WHO 2021, essential diagnostic criteria are a ‘biphasic histomorphology with neurocytic and a glial component, and uniform neurocytes forming rosettes and/or perivascular pseudorosettes associated with synaptophysin expression’ and/or DNA methylation profile of RGNT whereas ‘FGFR1 mutation with co‐occurring PIK3CA and/or NF1 mutation’ are desirable criteria.
