Overview
Oligodendroglioma may be classified according to the WHO classification of the central nervous system tumors into five subtypes: oligodendroglioma (OII), anaplastic oligodendroglioma (OIII), oligoastrocytoma (OAII), anaplastic oligoastrocytoma (OAIII), and glioblastoma with oligodendroglioma component (GBMo).
Classification
- As of the 2016 update of the World Health Organization (WHO) classification of central nervous system tumors, oligodendroglial tumors are now more narrowly defined by molecular diagnostics to include only those diffuse gliomas harboring both a mutation in isocitrate dehydrogenase type 1 (IDH1) or type 2 (IDH2) and codeletion of chromosomes 1p and 19q.
