Low‐grade epilepsy‐associated neuroepithelial tumours with a prominent oligodendroglioma‐like component: The diagnostic challenges

Abstract: Aims: We searched for recurrent pathological features and molecular alterations in a retrospective series of 72 low-grade epilepsy-associated neuroepithelial tumours (LEATs) with a prominent oligodendroglioma-like component, in order to classify them according to the 2021 World Health Organization (WHO) classification of central nervous system (CNS) tumours. Methods: Centralised pathological examination was performed as well as targeted molecular analysis of v-Raf murine sarcoma viral oncogene homologue B (BRA… Show more

“…Diffuse gliomas with FGFR3::TACC3 fusion have been mainly reported in the adult setting where they account for 3.1–11.8% of cases with pathological features of glioblastoma [ 4 , 13 , 22 , 30 , 31 ]. The frequency of FGFR3::TACC3 fusion in gliomas with pathological features of low grade is more difficult to appreciate but does not exceed 4% in some studies [ 16 , 23 , 31 ]. Importantly, fewer than 15 FGFR3::TACC3 pediatric gliomas, presenting initially with LGG histological features, have been reported to date, including one case of PLNTY with secondary malignant transformation [ 1 , 6 , 12 , 17 , 18 , 20 , 23 , 25 , 28 ].…”

“…These cases were retrieved from 8 University Hospital Centers: GHU Paris Psychiatry and Neurosciences, Marseille, Lille, Lyon, Toulouse, Nice, Montpellier and Rennes. Three cases (#13, #16 and #19) have been previously reported [ 2 , 23 ]. Written informed consent to be included in this study was provided by the participants or participants’ legal guardian/next of kin.…”

“…The current 5 th edition of WHO Classification published in 2021 3 partly amended this gap, adopting several molecular diagnostic tools that have improved diagnostic reliability and lead to the recognition of three new tumour types in this group. More and more lesions underlying drug-resistant focal epilepsy have extensively been studied by integrated molecular-histological approach and classified 20 , in spite of their morphological similarity 21 .…”
