  • Title: Molecular and Pathological Features of Paediatric High-Grade Gliomas.
    Author: Blasco-Santana L, Colmenero I.
    Journal: Int J Mol Sci; 2024 Aug 03; 25(15):. PubMed ID: 39126064.
    Abstract:
    Paediatric high-grade gliomas are among the most common malignancies found in children. Despite morphological similarities to their adult counterparts, there are profound biological and molecular differences. Furthermore, and thanks to molecular biology, the diagnostic pathology of paediatric high-grade gliomas has experimented a dramatic shift towards molecular classification, with important prognostic implications, as is appropriately reflected in both the current WHO Classification of Tumours of the Central Nervous System and the WHO Classification of Paediatric Tumours. Emphasis is placed on histone 3, IDH1, and IDH2 alterations, and on Receptor of Tyrosine Kinase fusions. In this review we present the current diagnostic categories from the diagnostic pathology perspective including molecular features.
