abstract = {The fifth edition of the WHO Classification of Tumors of
the Central Nervous System (CNS), published in 2021, is the
sixth version of the international standard for the
classification of brain and spinal cord tumors. Building on
the 2016 updated fourth edition and the work of the
Consortium to Inform Molecular and Practical Approaches to
CNS Tumor Taxonomy, the 2021 fifth edition introduces major
changes that advance the role of molecular diagnostics in
CNS tumor classification. At the same time, it remains
wedded to other established approaches to tumor diagnosis
such as histology and immunohistochemistry. In doing so, the
fifth edition establishes some different approaches to both
CNS tumor nomenclature and grading and it emphasizes the
importance of integrated diagnoses and layered reports. New
tumor types and subtypes are introduced, some based on novel
diagnostic technologies such as DNA methylome profiling. The
present review summarizes the major general changes in the
2021 fifth edition classification and the specific changes
in each taxonomic category. It is hoped that this summary
provides an overview to facilitate more in-depth exploration
of the entire fifth edition of the WHO Classification of
Tumors of the Central Nervous System.},
