Spindle-shaped oligodendrogliomas: features and treatment.
Oligodendrocytoma is a glial tumor of the central nervous system that affects nervous tissue and grows from oligodendral cells. These tumors belong to the group of glioblastoma-positive astrocytomas, and they are relatively rare but highly malignant. The appearance of a tumor in the brain area occurs frequently. Although usually pathological formations form locally in the brain, most cases of oligodentolisoma are a secondary process that develops as a result of a primary tumor - astrocytoma or glioblastoma. The formation of spindle tumors is a very rare form of development of limbomas compared to other types of neoplasms, especially from the anterior pituitary gland, diffuse glimas, multifocal glial tumors, multiple plaques or mixed paracellular glimas and atypical gliomas. Fusiform oligocytoma has high malignant activity. Such a tumor progresses rapidly not only
Benign tumors of the nervous system are a fairly rare disease. The tumor development is based on residual “fungal cells”. They arise due to decreased immunity, infectious diseases and prolonged exposure to chemicals. The tumor that develops from these cells is called glioma. A type of glioma is oligodendrogamoma. According to various sources, this tumor occurs in 0.5% to 5% of people during histological examination. Most often, the tumor occurs between the ages of 5 and 20 years. Su
