  • Title: [Oligodendroglioma. Clinical course in relation to histological grading].
    Author: Neumann J, Kimpel J, Gulotta F.
    Journal: Neurochirurgia (Stuttg); 1978 Mar; 21(2):35-42. PubMed ID: 643146.
    Abstract:
    The history of 99 patients, operated on for oligodendroglioma, has been related to the microscopic picture of the tumours which were graded in three stages of malignancy. Clinical course and histological grading fit together well. Certain signs and symptoms correlate with the kind of tumour. The prognosis in oligodendroglioma is as bad as in astrocytoma. The danger of recurrence is high, even after radical operation. Radiation therapy is useless.
