Abstract excerpt
Oligodendrogliomas are diffuse gliomas characterised by IDH mutation and 1p/19q co-deletion. Classical oligodendrocytes, minigemistocytes, gliofibrillary oligodendrocytes, granular cells, and mucocytes are morphologic cell types described in oligodendroglioma. Even though the occurrence of granular cells in oligodendroglioma is known, exact nature of these cells and their molecular characteristics remain...
