Resumen

En este artículo se revisan los aspectos anatomopatológicos y biológicos generales de los oligodendrogliomas. Estos tumores son relativamente benignos y representan alrededor del 8% de los gliomas. Microscópicamente presentan una morfología característica y su evolución biológica es difícil de predecir, aunque su tendencia es hacia la recidiva, mostrando por lo general signos histológicos de malignidad.
