Results of univariate analysis for the 157 1p/19q co-deleted AO. (A). The 3 pathological subgroups (group 1 (>5 mitoses per 10-HPF but no MVP and no necrosis), group 2 (MVP and no necrosis) and group 3 (MVP and necrosis)) are predictive of OS (B) and PFS (C). Abbreviations: AO, anaplastic oligodendroglioma; MVP, microvascular proliferation; OS, overall survival; PFS, progression-free survival.
