Targeted next-generation sequencing did also not detect a single nucleotide variant but instead revealed insertion of an AluY element into exon 2 of SMARCB1. Specific PCR-based Sanger sequencing verified the Alu insertion (SMARCB1 c.199_200 Alu ins) resulting in a frame-shift truncation not present in the patient's germline. In conclusion, transposable element insertion represents a hitherto not widely recognized mechanism of SMARCB1 disruption in AT/RT, which might not be detected by several widely applied conventional diagnostics
