Case report: an unusual long-term evolution of a diffuse midline glioma, H3K27 altered by Michael Griessmair, Michael Griessmair, Claire Delbridge, Claus Zimmer, Eva Mayr, Arthur Wagner, Julian Canisius, Marie-Christin Metz, Benedikt Wiestler, Benedikt Wiestler

“…Molecular neuropathology revealed the diagnosis of diffuse midline glioma with a H3K27M mutation WHO (World Health Organization) CNS (central nervous system) grade 4. Interestingly, MR imaging conducted for migraine diagnosis 6 years ago in retrospect already showed a small, nodular T2w hyperintense lesion in the right thalamus.ConclusionDespite a more precise, molecularly driven classification of pediatric HGG (high-grade glioma) in the 5th edition of the WHO classification of CNS tumors, many genetic factors influencing the biological tumor development as well as the precise molecular evolution of tumors remain unclear. …”
