Clinical and imaging characteristics of supratentorial slioma with IDH2 mutation

The rarity of IDH2 mutations in supratentorial gliomas has led to gaps in understanding their radiological characteristics, potentially resulting in misdiagnosis based solely on negative IDH1 immunohistochemical staining. We aimed to investigate the clinical and imaging characteristics of IDH2-mutant gliomas. We analyzed imaging data from adult patients with pathologically confirmed diffuse lower-grade gliomas and known IDH1/2 alteration and 1p/19q codeletion statuses obtained from the records of our institute (January 2011 to August 2022, Cohort 1) and The Cancer Imaging Archive (TCIA, Cohort 2). Two radiologists evaluated clinical information and radiological findings using standardized methods. Furthermore, we compared the data for IDH2-mutant and IDH-wildtype gliomas. Multivariate logistic regression was used to identify the predictors of IDH2 mutation status, and receiver operating characteristic curve analysis was employed to assess the predictive performance of the model. Of the 20 IDH2-mutant supratentorial gliomas, 95
