Sarcoma-like tumor originating from oligodendroglioma

Abstract: We present a case of sarcoma occurring at a site of resected oligodendroglioma without preceding radiotherapy or chemotherapy. Oligosarcoma occurring at sites of resected oligodendroglioma or anaplastic oligodendroglioma with sarcomatous components are rare. Although meningioma or sarcoma-like lesions are sometimes reported after glioma-targeted radiotherapy, those without preceding radiotherapy are quite rare. Moreover, cases of sarcoma without oligodendroglial components occurring at a site of resected oligo… Show more

“…The glial component is usually astrocytic, and gliosarcoma, in which the glial component is oligodendroglia, is quite rare. There have been few reports of a sarcomatous tumor arising as oligodendroglioma with 1p/19q codeleted …”

“…6 Although in most cases the glial component of the sarcomatous tumors is astrocytic, the literature describes several cases of gliosarcomas in which the glial component is oligodendrocytic. 2,3,[6][7][8][9][10] Here, we describe the case of an oligodendroglioma WHO grade II with 1p/19q co-deletion, IDH-1 and ATRX mutation, with initial GTR, not subjected to complementary treatments, and which was dedifferentiated to the sarcomatous form. The tumor always maintained the same genetic characteristics.…”

“…Rare sarcoma-like tumors originating from oligodendroglioma have been reported, with documented IDH1 mutation and 1p/19q co-deletion, and have been termed "oligosarcoma". 39,40,41 Among all sarcomas with CDKN2C loss, 1p/19q-codeletion appears to be nearly exclusive to LMS. However, in the overall LMS cohort, occasional cases with TP53 and RB1 alterations were positive by the 1p/19q-codeletion detection algorithm.…”
