Anaplastic oligodendroglioma
Anaplastic oligodendroglioma is a neuroepithelial tumor which is believed to originate from oligodendrocytes, a cell type of the glia. In the World Health Organization (WHO) classification of brain tumors, anaplastic oligodendrogliomas are classified as grade III. In the course of the disease, they can degenerate into WHO grade IV glioblastoma. The vast majority of oligodendrogliomas occur sporadically, without a confirmed cause and without inheritance within a family.
