Chordoid glioma of the third ventricle (CG3V) is a rare tumor developing in a stereotyped localization. It has been related to the circumventricular organ of the lamina terminalis, in the anterior part of the third ventricle, but its oncogenesis is poorly understood. TTF-1 transcription factor is involved in the development and adult physiology of the ventral forebrain. We studied the histopathologic and immunohistochemical features of a multicentric series of 17 cases of CG3V. We described additional histologic patterns (solid, fibrosing, and fusiform) to the typical chordoid pattern. TTF-1 was constantly expressed in CG3V, as in developing and adult lamina terminalis. The anti-TTF-1 SPT24 clone was more sensitive than the 8G7G3/1 clone. No mutation of IDH1 R132, IDH2 R172, or BRAF V600 codons was found. We showed TTF-1 as a useful marker for the diagnosis of CG3V and the understanding of its oncogenesis.
第三脑室脊索样胶质瘤(CG3V)是一种发生于特定部位的罕见肿瘤。它与第三脑室前部终板室周器官有关,但其肿瘤发生机制尚不清楚。TTF-1转录因子参与腹侧前脑的发育和成年期生理功能。我们研究了17例多中心CG3V病例的组织病理学和免疫组化特征。我们描述了除典型脊索样模式外的其他组织学模式(实性、纤维化和梭形)。TTF-1在CG3V中持续表达,如同在发育中的和成年的终板中一样。抗TTF-1 SPT24克隆比8G7G3/1克隆更敏感。未发现IDH1 R132、IDH2 R172或BRAF V600密码子的突变。我们表明TTF-1是诊断CG3V及其肿瘤发生机制研究的有用标志物。
