Abstract excerpt
BACKGROUND: Mutations in isocitrate dehydrogenase 1 and 2 (IDH1/2) are a promising prognostic biomarker of gliomas. The purpose of our study was to examine the clinical prognostic properties of IDH1/2 mutations in a glioma patient cohort from the Czech Republic using an improved platform for simple and reliable IDH genotyping. MATERIAL AND METHODS: We retrospectively analyzed a group of 145 glioma patients by...
