Diffuse leptomeningeal glioneuronal tumour (abbreviated DLGNT) is a neuropathology tumour related to pilocytic astrocytoma. The future WHO classification of CNS tumours will include it as separate entity.

General

Features:

  • Currently no WHO grade assigned. Molecular class MC-1 corresponds to WHO I, class MC-2 to WHO II/III[1]
  • Low-grade lesion but anaplastic progression reported.
  • Previously known as Disseminated oligodendroglial-like leptomeningeal tumour (abbreviated DOLN)
    • AKA "disseminated oligodendroglial-like leptomeningeal tumor of childhood" (DOGLT).[2]
  • Intermediate prognosis.

Gross

Features:

  • Multiple tumor sites (60-85% spinal).
  • Diffuse leptomeningeal expansion.
    • Hydrocaphalus due to CSF occlusion.
    • May spread extraneural through shunts. [3]
    • Rarely Cysts.[4]

Microscopic

Features:

  • Oligodendroglioma-like cells with low-mitotic activity.
  • Rare ganglion/ganglioid cells.
  • Ocassionally eosinophilic granular bodies and Rosenthal fibers.
  • Infiltrative growth pattern.
  • Variable mitotic activity.

IHC

Fetaures:[5][6]

  • OLIG2 (7 of 9) (78 %).
  • S100 (11 of 12) (92 %).
  • GFAP (12 of 31) (39 %).
  • Synaptophysin (19 of 27) (70 %).
  • NeuN -ve.
  • EMA -ve.
  • IDH-1 -ve.
  • HuC/D +/-ve.
  • CD99 -ve.

Molecular

  • Mixture of partially oligodendroglioma, partially pilocytic astrocytoma features.[1]
  • 1p loss in 100% (or combined 1p/19q loss in 15-50%)[7]
  • KIAA1549-BRAF fusions.[9]
    • High frequency of co-occurence of BRAF-KIAA1549 fusions and 1p deletion.
    • BRAF-KIAA1549 fusions are usu. absent in oligodendroglioma.[10]
  • BRAF V600E-negative.
  • IDH1/2-Wildtype.
  • Two methylation class subgroups (DLGNT MC-1 and MC-2)
    • 1p gain in all MC-2 class cases.
    • MC-1 class cases are younger and have a more favourable prognosis.
