“…The most frequent localization is the temporal pole, followed by the frontal pole, parietal pole and brainstem [41,45,46]. In FLAIR sequences, a stalklike shape of the tumor outline projecting deeply towards the lateral ventricle has been reported by several authors [45,47,48]. In a series of six angiocentric gliomas, histological and immunohistochemical investigations revealed a focal cortical dysplasia adjacent to the tumor in five cases, classified according to the International League Against Epilepsy (ILAE) as a dysplasia type IIIb (ILAE type IIIb) [44].…”

The classification of diffuse gliomas into the adult type and the pediatric type is the new basis for the diagnosis and clinical evaluation. The knowledge for the neuroradiologist should not remain limited to radiological aspects but should be based additionally on the current edition of the World Health Organization (WHO) classification of tumors of the central nervous system (CNS). This classification defines the 11 entities of diffuse gliomas, which are included in the 3 large groups of adult-type diffuse gliomas, pediatric-type diffuse low-grade gliomas, and pediatric-type diffuse high-grade gliomas. This article provides a detailed overview of important molecular, morphological, and clinical aspects for all 11 entities, such as typical genetic alterations, age distribution, variability of the tumor localization, variability of histopathological and radiological findings within each entity, as well as currently available statistical information on prognosis and outcome. Important differential diagnoses are also discussed.

“…MYB is a proto-oncogene, and MYB proteins are transcription factors characterized by a highly conserved DNA-binding base sequence. MYB-QKI fusion is relevant to AG ( 8 ). MYB-QKI fusion is found in 87% of AGs and 41% of pDLGGs ( 18 ).…”

The fifth edition of the World Health Organization Classification of Tumors of the Central Nervous System (WHO CNS5) has identified a new classification system for tumors of the brain and spinal cord, highlighting the pivotal role of molecular diagnosis in accurately categorizing neoplasms. In addition to previous classifications, one of the key distinctions lies in categorizing pediatric-type diffuse low-grade gliomas (pDLGGs) and pediatric-type diffuse high-grade gliomas (pDHGGs) as distinct tumor types. Although similar in histology and morphology, pediatric diffuse gliomas are completely different from the adult type with respect to the molecular genetic characteristics, prognosis, and treatment strategies. pDLGG includes four tumor types, namely, diffuse astrocytoma, MYB- or MYBL1-altered; angiocentric glioma; polymorphous low-grade neuroepithelial tumor of the young (PLNTY); and diffuse low-grade glioma, MAPK pathway-altered, three types of which are newly recognized tumor types. Herein, we review the clinical characteristics, histopathological and molecular genetic characteristics, neuroimaging features, and prognosis of pDLGG and summarize the neuroimaging key points in diagnosing different tumor types. This review aims to evaluate and update the relevant pDLGG features and advances in neuroimaging that may assist in differential diagnosis, surgery planning, and prognostic determination of these tumor types and provide accurate diagnostic information for clinical colleagues.
