Overview
The broad topic "oligodendroglial tumors" was first described by Bailey and Cushing in 1926, where they mentioned that gliomas were formed by transformation of glial cells.[1][2]
Historical Perspective
- The broad topic "oligodendroglial tumors" was first described by Bailey and Cushing in 1926.[1][2]
- The anaplastic nature of oligodendroglial tumors was described by Kernohan based on the features such as endothelial proliferation, nuclear atypia, mitoses, and necrosis.
- These tumors were later published by WHO and St. Anne-Mayo Clinic schema (Daumas-Duport system) in the later part of 20th century.
- The studies by Zulch resulted in the formulation of the WHO classification of CNS tumors.[3]
- Celli et al in 1994 gave the name of "oligoastrocytoma" to those oligodendroglial tumors where the astrocytes formed more than 20% of the tumor cells.[4]
