The fifth edition of the WHO classification of tumors of the central nervous system (WHO CNS5) was published in 2021 which is the sixth version of the international standard for the diagnostics of CNS tumors. Regular updates of the consortium to inform molecular and practical approaches to CNS tumor taxonomy (cIMPACT-NOW) shaped the WHO CNS5 which continues the trend of incorporating the molecular characteristics of tumors into the histological and immunohistochemical findings. The various updates can be classified into general changes across all tumors and specific changes within the tumor groups. This mini-review highlights the general changes and the major changes in adult diffuse gliomas.

Tumor Progression
Colon cancer is one of the best-documented examples of tumor progression. Early mutation in the APC gene in colon cells causes a small growth on the colon wall called a polyp. With time, this polyp grows into a benign, pre-cancerous tumor. Further...
