The prognostic value of peri-operative neurological performance in glioblastoma patients

Background IDH-wild-type glioblastoma (GBM) is a disease with devastating prognosis. First-line therapy consists of gross total resection and adjuvant radiotherapy with concomitant temozolomide. Several clinical parameters have been identified to provide prognostic value. We investigated whether peri-operative overall neurological performance could also be used to evaluate patients’ prognosis.
