Overview
Optic nerve glioma may be classified into several subtypes based on microscopic histopathology, anatomic location, and association with neurofibromatosis type 1. Optic pathway gliomas are classified according to WHO classification into two subtypes: pilocytic astrocytoma and fibrillary astrocytoma. Optic nerve gliomas may be classified according to anatomic location into two subtypes: anterior visual pathway tumors and posterior visual pathway tumors. Based on whether or not they are associated with neurofibromatosis type 1, they may be classified into two subtypes: optic nerve gliomas associated with neurofibromatosis type 1 and optic nerve gliomas not associated with neurofibromatosis type 1.
Classification
- Optic nerve glioma may be classified into several subtypes based on microscopic histopathology, anatomic location, and association with neurofibromatosis type 1.
| Classifications of Optic Nerve Glioma | |
|---|---|
| Microscopic Histopathology | Fibrillary astrocytoma(40%) |
| Pilocytic astrocytoma(60%) | |
| Association with Neurofibromatosis type 1 | Optic nerve gliomas associated with neurofibromatosis type 1 |
| Optic nerve gliomas not associated with neurofibromatosis type 1 | |
| Anatomic location | Anterior visual pathway
|
Posterior visual pathway

Classification based on Microscopic Histopathology
- Optic pathway gliomas are classified according to WHO classification into two subtypes:
- Fibrillary astrocytoma(40%)
Classification based on Association with Neurofibromatosis type 1
- Based on whether or not they are associated with neurofibromatosis type 1, they may be classified into two subtypes:
- Optic nerve gliomas associated with neurofibromatosis type 1
- Optic nerve gliomas not associated with neurofibromatosis type 1
Neurofibromatosis type 1 tumors are more likely to involve anterior visual pathway. Optic nerve gliomas without an association with neurofibromatosis type 1 are more frequent in the posterior visual pathway.[1] In children diagnosed with NF-1, approximately 15% develop optic gliomas.[2] [3] Twenty to forty percent of optic gliomas occur in children with NF-1.
Classification based on Anatomic location
- According to their location along the optic pathway, the two major categories are:
Anterior visual pathway
- Orbital
- Intracanalicular
- Intracranial prechiasmal lesions.
Most of anterior visual pathway tumors are classified as pilocytic astrocytomas and they occur most frequently in prepubertal children.[4]
Posterior visual pathway
- Optic chiasm
- Hypothalamus
- Anterior third ventricle
- Most of posterior visual pathway tumors are classified histologically as pilocytic astrocytomas, and occasionally gangliogliomas.
- Hypothalamic and chiasmal lesions present at a mean age of about three years.[5]
- About 10% of optic pathway tumors are located within an optic nerve, one third of the tumors involve both optic nerve and chiasm, another one third involves predominantly the chiasm itself, and one fourth involves predominantly the hypothalamus. 5 5% of optic nerve gliomas are multicentric.
