CSF Biopsy in Glioma: A Brief Review

Methods Mol Biol. 2023:2695:121-126. doi: 10.1007/978-1-0716-3346-5_8.

Abstract

Glioma is the most common intracranial malignant tumor. Over the past several years, liquid biopsy in diagnosis and treatment of solid tumors have made many progressions, but there is still a gap from a large clinical application of liquid biopsy in glioma due to many limitations. However, in recent years, researchers have made many explorations into liquid biopsy in glioma. In the future, the liquid biopsy of glioma, especially cerebrospinal fluid, will have a broad prospect. In this review, we will discuss the current research progressions of CSF biopsy in glioma in recent years.

Keywords: Cerebrospinal fluid; Glioma; Liquid biopsy.
