Clin. DDx metastatic brain tumours

Glioblastoma a very common malignant primary brain tumour in adults. It has a very poor prognosis.

It was previously known as glioblastoma multiforme, abbreviated GBM.

General

  • Median survival is measured in months.[1]
  • Only about 5% can expect to survive more than three years.[2]

Macroscopy

Features:

  • Usu. in white matter.
    • central necrotic core.
    • ill-defined borders.
    • yellowish to dark-brown changes.
    • midline shift due to tumor mass.
  • In the corpus callosum as bihemispheric "butterfly glioma"

  • Ring-enhancement in GBM (WC/Hellerhoff)

  • Left insular GBM macroscopy (WC/Sbrandner)

  • "Butterfly glioma" (WC/AFIP)

Microscopic

Features:

  • Astrocytic tumour with:
    • Nuclear atypia.
    • Necrosis.
    • Endothelial proliferation (AKA microvascular proliferation).
    • +/-"Pseudopalisading necrosis" - tumour cells lined-up like a picket fence around necrotic areas.

Glioblastoma variants:

  • Giant cell glioblastoma (ICD-O: 9441/3)
  • Gliosarcoma (ICD-O: 9442/3)
  • Future variant (in 2016?)
    • Epitheloid glioblastoma (50% BRAF V600E mutations) [3]


Morphological patterns in Glioblastoma:

  • Lipidized (foamy)cells [4]
  • Adipocyte-like maturation [5]
  • Rhabdoid glioblastoma (focal loss of INI-1) [6]
  • Melanotic glioblastoma [7]
  • Glioblastoma with oligodendroglial component (no improved survival) [8]
  • Granular cell Glioblastoma [9]
  • Glioblastoma with PNET component [10]
  • Small cell glioblastoma.
  • Ependymal-like growth patterns.



Images

  • Core features of GBM: Necrosis, MVP and mitoses (WC/jensflorian)

  • Anaplastic cells in GBM (WC/jensflorian)

  • Endothelial proliferations in GBM (WC/jensflorian)

  • Mitotic activity in GBM (WC/jensflorian)

  • Pseudopalisading necrosis in GBM (WC/jensflorian)

  • Diffuse brain infiltration in GBM (WC/jensflorian)

  • MVP adjacent to tumor infiltration border in GBM (WC/jensflorian)

  • GBM - low mag. (WC)

  • GBM juxtaposed with near normal white matter - intermed. mag. (WC)

  • GBM juxtaposed with near normal white matter - high mag. (WC)

  • GBM - very high mag. (WC)

  • GBM - high mag. (WC)

  • Extreme nuclear enlargement in a GBM - very high mag. (WC)

  • Giant cell glioblastoma (WC/jensflorian)

  • Adenoid growth pattern in GBM (WC/jensflorian)

  • Adenoid growth pattern in GBM (AFIP)

  • Epitheloid glioblastoma (WC/jensflorian)

  • GBM with PNET component (WC/jensflorian)

  • GBM with PNET component (WC/jensflorian)

  • GBM with oligodendroglial component (WC/jensflorian)

  • Nuclear pleomorphism in with oligodendroglial component (WC/jensflorian)

  • GBM with granular cell component (WC/jensflorian)

  • Glioblastoma with ependymal-like growth pattern (WC/jensflorian)

  • Spinal cord GBM (AFIP)

  • Glioblastoma mimicking a (amelanotic) melanoma (WC/jensflorian)

  • Resection borders in a recurrent GBM (WC/jensflorian)

  • Radiation changes in a recurrent GBM (WC/jensflorian)

IHC

  • GFAP +ve (cytoplasm).
  • MAP2 +ve.
  • IDH-1 -ve (95%).
    • +ve if developed from lower grade astrocytoma (secondary GBM).
  • WT-1 +ve (cytoplasm).
  • p53 +ve (70%).
  • Neurofilament -ve.
  • Synaptophysin -ve (residual Cortex may be +ve).
  • panCK -ve (except for GBM with epithelial component).
  • ATRX: +ve (no loss, nuclei)
    • -ve if developed from lower grade astrocytoma (secondary GBM).
  • EMA: Dot-like expression less common than in ependymomas.
  • MIB-1 usu. 15-30%, but varies greatly.

  • GFAP immunostaining in GBM (WC/Marvin 101)

  • WT1 immunostaining in GBM (WC/jensflorian)

  • GBM with strong p53 immunreactivity (WC/jensflorian)

  • IDH1 R132H immunreactivity in a secondary GBM (WC/Marvin101)

  • CK7 staining in glioblastoma with epithelial component (WC/jensflorian)

Molecular

  • Seen in inherited tumor syndromes:
  • Most common alterations (TCGA[11])
    • Tp53 (42% of the tumors mutated)
    • PTEN (33%).
    • NF1 (21%).
    • EGFR (18%).
    • RB1 (11%).
    • PI3K-pathway genes (7-10%).


  • Diagnostic/therapeutic relevant markers:
    • MGMT promoter methylation status
    • Absence of LOH 1p/19q (otherwise classify tumor as oligodendroglioma).
