Abstract
The presence of residual tumour at repeat craniotomy within 6 months of radiotherapy is not an independent indicator of prognosis. Patients with residual tumour that had a low Ki67 had a similar median survival as those with only treatment necrosis. Reduced proliferation of residual tumour cells and widespread necrosis may be more important indicators for future outcome.
