Description: Gliomas are exceptionally diverse in location, morphology, differentiation, ease of excision and response to postoperative therapy. Knowledge of their pathology is a great practical aid, because it provides a conceptual framework in which to place specific lesions, defines reasonable expectations of surgery for each neoplasm, and clarifies the significance of histologic diagnoses as formulated according to current classifications.

Astrocytic Neoplasms
Neoplasms derived from an astrocytic lineage constitute a large and heterogeneous group. They may be divided into two categories: (1) the fibrillary astrocytic neoplasms (astrocytoma, anaplastic astrocytoma and glioblastoma multiforme) and (2) a diverse group of tumor types that warrant separation from the fibrillary astrocytic series because of their distinctive clinicopathologic features. The principal members of this group include the juvenile pilocytic astrocytomas, the pleomorphic xanthoastrocytoma and
