We read with interest a recent paper published by Jiang et al. on molecular classification for high-grade oligodendroglial tumors (HGOs) based on 1p/19q status. Using 117 tumors with histological diagnosis of primary HGOs, the authors divided these patients into four subtypes which conferred remarkably distinct prognosis based on the number of risk factors (higher tumor grade, 1p/19q maintenance and 1q/19p copolysomy). The authors concluded that the molecular classification scheme based on 1p/19q status alone can serve as a supplement of the current WorldHealth Organization classification system and contribute to the personalized treatment decision-making. An oligoastrocytoma (OA) is defined as a tumor with a conspicuous mixture of two distinct neoplastic cell types resembling oligodendrocytes and astrocytes. Due to the heterogenous morphology, the histological diagnosis of OA is often subjective. No guidelines currently exist regarding the minimum percentage of either part required for the diagnosis. Consequently, the frequency of OA diagnosis varies widely among different institutions and the interobserver agreement of OA diagnosis is low and the diagnosis is made of varying frequencies in different institutions. The often limited amount of material available for histopathological diagnosis further contributes to the diagnostic uncertainty. It is still unclear if the oligodendroglial and astrocytic areas of OA are derived from a common cell origin or from two different cell clones during neoplastic transformation. Previous studies have shown that the vast majority of OAs, in addition to harboring mutations in IDH1/2, exhibit the molecular signature of either pure oligodendroglioma (1p/19q codeletion, CIC and FUBP1 mutation) or astrocytoma (ATRX mutation, p53 mutation) with almost complete mutual exclusivity. This supports the notion that OA, as an independent biological entity, does not truly exist.
