Molecular genetic findings. FISH-analysis showed retained 1p (a) and 19q (b) expression. Mutation analysis using Sanger sequencing showed a H3F3A K27M mutation (c) and a TERT C228T promoter mutation (d), NGS showed a PDGFRα Y849C mutation (e). Further molecular analysis showed wild-type status of all other 51 genes including BRAF, HIST1H3B, HIST1H3C, IDH1, and IDH2 status (f). Epigenome-wide methylation profiling using the Illumina EPIC Array at the Department of Neuropathology, University Hospital Heidelberg/German Cancer Research Center, allocated the tumor to the methylation class of diffuse midline glioma H3 K27M mutant (g). Magnification: a, b: 100 × oil immersion. c–e: mutations are indicated using “*”. f: wild-type gene status is indicated by green, mutant gene status by red color
