Object Extent of resection (EOR) has been shown to be an important prognostic factor for
survival in patients undergoing initial resection of glioblastoma (GBM), but the significance of …

Although low-grade gliomas (LGG) have a less aggressive course than do high-grade
gliomas, the outcome of these tumours is ultimately fatal in most patients. Both the tumour …

Object The spontaneous prognostic factors and optimal therapeutic strategy for WHO Grade
II gliomas (GIIGs) have yet to be unanimously defined. Specifically, the role of resection is …

OBJECTIVE: There is still no general consensus in the literature regarding the role of extent
of glioma resection in improving patient outcome. Although the importance of resection in …

Background Our previous study on cognitive functioning among 195 patients with low-grade
glioma (LGG) a mean of 6 years after diagnosis suggested that the tumour itself, rather than …

Diffuse low-grade glioma grows, migrates along white matter tracts, and progresses to high-
grade glioma. Rather than a “wait and see” policy, an aggressive attitude is now …

Diffuse low-grade gliomas are highly epileptogenic brain tumours. We aimed to explore the
natural course of epileptic seizures, their predictors and the prognostic significance of their …

Objectives: Recent studies have shown that IDH1 and IDH2 mutations occur frequently in
gliomas, including low-grade gliomas. However, their impact on the prognosis and …

Background Total or subtotal surgical resection of WHO grade II glioma (diffuse low-grade
glioma, DLGG) can significantly increase survival. Moreover, a supratotal resection, ie, an …

Background: Diffuse infiltrative low‐grade gliomas of the cerebral hemispheres in the adult
are a group of tumors with distinct clinical, histological and molecular characteristics, and …
