Overview
According to the World Health Organization (WHO) classification system, ganglioglioma may be classified into 3 grades based on the severity of disease and the degree of cellular differentiation.
Classification
According to the World Health Organization (WHO) classification system, ganglioglioma may be classified into the following 3 grades:[1]
- WHO Grade I: Well-differentiated, benign ganglioglioma with slow growth
- WHO Grade II: Benign ganglioglioma with less degree of differentiation compared to grade I
- WHO Grade III: Anaplasic, malignant ganglioglioma with rapid growth
