摘要: This article discusses data from 3 randomized phase trials, supporting a role for surgery in glioblastoma. Data were reviewed by extent of resection during primary the ALA-Glioma Study (fluorescence-guided versus conventional resection), BCNU wafer study (BCNU placebo), and EORTC 26981–22981 (radiotherapy chemoradiotherapy with temozolomide). For glioblastoma patients ALA study, median survival was 16.7 11.8 months complete partial resection, respectively (P < 0.0001). Survival effects maintained after correction differences age tumor location. who received ≥90% increased placebo (14.5 12.4 months, respectively; P = 0.02), but no increase found <90% (11.7 10.6 months, P = 0.98). In absolute gain radiotherapy greatest resections (+4.1 months; P = 0.0001), compared (+1.8 months; or biopsies (+1.5 months; P = 0.088), suggesting enhanced adjuvant treatment. Complete appears to improve may efficacy adjunct/adjuvant therapies. If safely achievable, should be surgical goal
