| The WHO grading of CNS tumors establishes a malignancy scale based on histologic features of the tumor. The histologic grades are as follows:
| |
| | |
| *'''WHO grade I''' includes lesions with low proliferative potential, a frequently discrete nature, and the possibility of cure following surgical resection alone.
| |
| | |
| *'''WHO grade II''' includes lesions that are generally infiltrating and low in mitotic activity but recur. Some tumor types tend to progress to higher grades of malignancy.
| |
| | |
| *'''WHO grade III''' includes lesions with histologic evidence of malignancy, generally in the form of mitotic activity, clearly expressed infiltrative capabilities, and anaplasia.
| |
| | |
| *'''WHO grade IV''' includes lesions that are mitotically active, necrosis-prone, and generally associated with a rapid preoperative and postoperative evolution of disease.
