'''Anaplastic astrocytoma''' (AKA: ''high-grade astrocytoma'') is a infiltrating neoplasm of the diffuse astrocytic and oligodendroglial tumor group occurring in the CNS white matter. |
* Most common grade III WHO glioma in adults (peaks between 40-50 years). |
* Approx 5% of all [[glioma]]s.<ref>{{Cite journal | last1 = Ohgaki | first1 = H. | last2 = Kleihues | first2 = P. | title = Population-based studies on incidence, survival rates, and genetic alterations in astrocytic and oligodendroglial gliomas. | journal = J Neuropathol Exp Neurol | volume = 64 | issue = 6 | pages ... |
* Usually shows progression to [[glioblastoma]] sooner or later. |
WHO 2016 categorization combines morphology and genetics into following groups:<ref>{{Cite journal | last1 = Louis | first1 = DN. | last2 = Perry | first2 = A. | last3 = Reifenberger | first3 = G. | last4 = von Deimling | first4 = A. | last5 = Figarella-Branger | first5 = D. | last6 = Cavenee | first6 = WK. | last7 = ... |
*Anaplastic astrocytoma, IDH-mutant (ICD-O: 9401/3). |
*Anaplastic astrocytoma, IDH-wildtype (ICD-O: 9401/3). |
*Anaplastic astrocytoma,NOS (ICD-O: 9401/3) - genetic data missing. |
==Radiology/Clinic== |
*Mass effect. |
*Seizures. |
*Neurologic decifit. |
*The majority are contrast-enhanching, T2 bright. |
==Prognosis== |
*Overall prognosis is rather poor (average survival 2-3 years). |
*IDH-mutant tumors share a similiar prognosis to grade II IDH-mutant tumors.<ref>{{Cite journal | last1 = Reuss | first1 = DE. | last2 = Mamatjan | first2 = Y. | last3 = Schrimpf | first3 = D. | last4 = Capper | first4 = D. | last5 = Hovestadt | first5 = V. | last6 = Kratz | first6 = A. | last7 = Sahm | first7 = F. | ... |

==Macroscopy== |
*No clear demarcation from white matter. |
*Invaded structures may appear enlarged. |
*Softer consistency and opacity. |
*No necrosis. |
==Histology== |
Features: <ref name=AFIP2007>{{Ref AFIP2007|34}}</ref> |
*Increased cellularity (compared to [[Diffuse Astrocytoma]]). |
**Specimens with low cellularity but plenty mitoses are also considered anaplastic. |
*Distinct nuclear atypia and pleomorphism. |
**May include multinucleated cells. |
*Cytoplasm highly variable (even within the same tumour). |
*Mitoses present (a single mitosis in a small specimen indicates a high-grade tumor). |
*Microcystic spaces of the background (none to extensive). |
*No necrosis, no vascular proliferations. |
**Except radiation necrosis after pretreatment. |
*Lymphocytic cuffing (mostly in gemistocytic type). |
*Rosenthal fibers usu. absent. |
