Abstract

Diffuse midline glioma, H3K27-altered, is a relatively new entity, characterized by H3K27M histone mutation. This rare pediatric disease with severe prognosis has recently been identified as a new subtype of diffuse astrocytoma due to major breakthrough in histopathological and molecular characterization of gliomas. We report a case of H3K27-altered diffuse midline glioma in a 30-year-old woman.
