Is intracranial volume a risk factor for IDH-mutant low-grade glioma? A case-control study.

Abstract excerpt

PURPOSE: Risk of cancer has been associated with body or organ size in several studies. We sought to investigate the relationship between intracranial volume (ICV) (as a proxy for lifetime maximum brain size) and risk of IDH-mutant low-grade glioma. METHODS: In a multicenter case-control study based on population-based data, we included 154 patients with IDH-mutant WHO grade 2 glioma and 995 healthy controls. ICV...
