Oligodendroglioma causes
Introduction
Overview
Overview
The most common etiology of oligodendroglioma includes genetic mutations such as t(1;19)(q10;p10), NJDS, IDH1, IDH2, CIC, FUBP1, p53, Leu-7, TCF-12,MGMT, TP73, EGFR and PTEN. It may be associated with some viral cause or irradiation of pituitary adenoma.
