Prognostic factors in treatment for low-grade brain supratentorial infiltrative gliomas

The study showed the results of univariate and multivariate analyses of treatment of patients with low-grade brain supratentorial infiltrative gliomas. It was reaffirmed the importance of the most significance of such adverse prognostic factors as histology, tumor size, displacement of midline structures of the brain, age and neurological deficit. When assessing the prognostic significance of severity of the debut of clinical symptoms in this category of neuro-oncological patients as well as radical surgical treatment of the primary tumor there were obtained data confirming the absence of their independent prognostic significance.
