Abstract excerpt
Isocitrate dehydrogenase (IDH)1/2 mutations have been proposed as a genetic marker for secondary glioblastoma (sGBM). This study aimed to evaluate the impact of the IDH1/2 mutations on the clinical course and genetic alterations of sGBMs, which histopathologically progressed from lower-grade gliomas. We investigated 18 sGBMs, including 8 sGBMs with IDH1/2 mutations (sGBM-Mut) and 10 with wild-type IDH1/2...
