CONCLUSIÓN
Los avances contemporáneos en genética y biología mole-
cular se han traducido en un renacimiento en el estudio de
los tumores del SNC. Estos nuevos enfoques sugieren el uso
de una taxonomía molecular que promete influenciar el diag-
nóstico, la clasificación de la enfermedad y el manejo clínico.
Más aún, el conocimiento y la identificación de sellos mole-
culares de cada grupo de neoplasias del SNC puede conducir
a la expansión del arsenal terapéutico disponible para tratar
estas lesiones, brindando así nueva luz de esperanza en el
entendimiento y pronóstico de este complejo grupo de
lesiones.
