Assess the contribution of preoperative MRI data in improving grading of adult astrocytomas reclassified according to the WHO 2016 and cIMPACT-NOW update 3. Retrospective unicentric cohort study of 679 adult patients treated for newly diagnosed diffuse astrocytic and oligodendroglial tumors (January 2006-December 2016). We first systematically compared radiological (contrast enhancement present [CE+] vs. absent [CE-]) and histopathological findings (microvascular proliferation present [MPV+] vs. absent [MPV-]) to validate whether this comparing step of neoangiogenesis represents an efficient method to appreciate the representativity of the tumoral sampling. We focused on 629 cases of astrocytomas for radio-histological integrated analyses. In 598 cases (95.1%), neoangiogenesis evaluated by MRI or histology (CE+/MPV+ or CE-/MPV-) was identical. For the CE+/MPV- and CE-/MPV+ groups (23 cases), the radio-histological face-to-face evaluation allowed us to assess that for 13 cases (56.5%) the reason for this discrepancy was an undersampled tumor. We analyzed the group of CE+/MPV- (n = 8) and CE-/MPV+ (n = 2) in verified image-guided tumoral samples. Finally, we identified three new prognostic subgroups for molecular glioblastomas: (1) "non-representative sampling" (n = 9), (2) "Non neoangiogenic glioblastoma at the time of diagnosis, without contrast enhancement and microvascular proliferation" (n = 8), and (3) "contrast enhancing glioblastoma but without microvascular proliferation in a representative sample" (n = 4). Neoangiogenesis processes should be assessed to improve the prognosis accuracy of the current integrated diagnosis. We suggest adding imaging analyses during the neuropathological analysis of astrocytomas in adults.
