Overview
Pathophysiology
Pathogenesis
Genetics
- Development of oligoastrocytoma is the result of multiple genetic mutations.
- Oligoastrocytomas are mixed tumors that have molecular genetics that overlap with both oligodendrogliomas and astrocytomas.
- Genes associated with the pathogenesis of oligoastrocytoma include:
