Pathology and molecular genetics of oligodendroglial tumors.

Abstract excerpt

Oligodendroglial gliomas are second only to astrocytic gliomas in frequency. The lack of stringent diagnostic criteria cause high interobserver variation in regard to classification and grading of these tumors. Previous studies have described oligodendrogliomas with features that overlap with those of neurocytic tumors, thus further complicating diagnostic decisions. The increasing need for standardized...
