## BACKGROUND. The therapeutic impact of tumor resection is poorly defined. Therefore the current study was conducted. ## METHODS. A retrospective, 2-institutional study was conducted (1991-1994) to compare the treatment results of stereotactic biopsy plus radiation therapy (99 patients; tumor
## Abstract ## BACKGROUND The 5βyear survival rate for intracranial glioblastoma multiforme (GBM) has remained at 4β5% for the last 30 years, in spite of multiple randomized prospective trials. The authors hypothesized, based on the literature, that even this remarkably poor survival rate is an ov
## Abstract ## BACKGROUND Knowledge of the molecular mechanisms involved in the biology of glioblastoma multiforme (GBM) is essential for the identification of candidate prognostic markers, new putative therapeutic targets, and early detection strategies predictive of survival. ## METHODS The au
