The 2016 WHO Classification of Tumours of the Central Nervous System: The Major Points of Revision

Open access
KOMORI, Takashi·2017·Neurologia medico-chirurgica

Abstract

The updated 2016 edition of the World Health Organization (WHO) Classification of Tumours of the Central Nervous System (CNS) uses molecular parameters and the histology to define the main tumor categories for the first time. This represents a shift from the traditional principle of using neuropathological diagnoses, which are primarily based on the microscopic features, to using molecularly-oriented diagnoses. Major restructuring was made with regard to diffuse gliomas, medulloblastomas and other embryonal tumors. New entities that are defined by both the histological and molecular features include glioblastoma, isocitrate dehydrogenase (IDH)-wildtype and glioblastoma, IDH-mutant; diffuse midline glioma, H3 K27M-mutant; RELA fusion-positive ependymoma; medulloblastoma, wingless (WNT)-activated and medulloblastoma, sonic hedgehog (SHH)-activated; and embryonal tumor with multilayered rosettes, C19MC-altered. In addition, some entities that are no longer diagnostically relevant-such as CNS-primitive neuroectodermal tumor-have been deleted from this updated edition. The WHO2016 certainly facilitates clinical and basic research to improve the diagnosis of brain tumors and patient care.

About these checks

Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.

Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.

Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
