Abstract BACKGROUND Numerous variant BRAF genetic alterations have been associated with malignancies. BRAF activating fusions/mutations are frequently present in low grade gliomas. BRAF intragenic deletions have been reported in melanoma, but have not previously been reported in gliomas. OBJECTIVE To report a BRAF intragenic deletion in a pediatric patient with recurrent low-grade glioma. RESULTS A 3-year-old female underwent a complete resection of a posterior fossa pilocytic astrocytoma. She had recurrences at age 4, and then at age 9; pathology was consistent with pilocytic astrocytoma. Microarray analysis on sample from the first recurrence showed one region of loss encompassing 86 Kbp within the BRAF gene. The deletion breakpoints are within intron 1 and 9, resulting in loss of exons 2 through 9, inclusive. This has been previously described melanoma, but appears to be a novel finding in glioma. It is hypothesized that, since the loss retains the kinase and ATP binding pocket domains but deletes the N-terminal conserved region 1 and 2 (CR1, CR2) of the BRAF gene, it is likely functionally similar to the loss and activation resulting from the more usually described KIAA1549 and BRAF gene fusion. CONCLUSION This is the first BRAF intragenic deletion involving exons 2–9 reported in a glioma. Although 86kbp is small using whole genome microarray technology, it is large using sequencing strategies, and a targeted sequencing approach to investigate the BRAF gene would not readily identify this deletion. It is speculated that the deletion may be under ascertained in the pediatric population.
