'''Astrocytoma, IDH-mutant''' is a diffusely-growing, infiltrating astrocytoma of the adult occurring in the CNS white matter. IDH1 codon 132 or IDH2 codon 172 mutations are frequently associated with ATRX and TP53 mutations.
'''Astrocytoma, IDH-mutant''' is a diffusely-growing, infiltrating astrocytoma of the adult occurring in the CNS white matter. IDH1 codon 132 or IDH2 codon 172 mutations is mandatory for diagnosis and are frequently associated with ATRX and TP53 mutations.
