Abstract excerpt
Mutations in the isocitrate dehydrogenase (IDH) gene are recognized as the key drivers in the oncogenesis of astrocytoma and oligodendroglioma. However, the significance of IDH mutation in tumor maintenance and malignant transformation has not been elucidated. We encountered a unique case of IDH-mutant astrocytoma that, upon malignant transformation, presented two distinct intratumoral components: one...
