The extent of corpus callosum involvement, however, ranges from partial unilateral to complete bilateral infiltration. The role of surgery in glioblastoma with corpus callosum involvement is controversial. In this study, we aimed to examine prognostic differences between glioblastoma with unilateral and glioblastoma with bilateral corpus callosum infiltration, and to evaluate possible treatment strategy implications. Patients with newly diagnosed glioblastoma from 2010 to 2019 were included. Corpus callosum infiltration was assessed in contrast-enhanced T1-weighted preoperative magnetic resonance imaging. Extent of resection, adjuvant treatments and overall survival were evaluated. Corpus callosum involvement was found in 96 (26.4%) out of 363 patients with newly diagnosed glioblastoma. Bilateral corpus callosum infiltration was found in 27 out of 96 patients (28%), and 69 patients had unilateral corpus callosum infiltration. Glioblastoma with corpus callosum affection had significantly lower median overall survival compared to glioblastoma without corpus callosum involvement (9 vs. 11 months,\n p\n  = 0.02). A subgroup analysis of glioblastoma with unilateral corpus callosum infiltration revealed a significant difference in median overall survival dependent on extent of resection (6.5 without gross total resection vs. 11 months with gross total resection, Log-rank test\n p\n  = 0.02). Our data confirms a shorter overall survival in glioblastoma subpopulation with corpus callosum involvement, especially for glioblastoma with bilateral corpus callosum infiltration. However, patients with partial corpus callosum infiltration undergoing gross total resection exhibited a significant survival benefit compared to their counterparts without gross total resection. Whenever reasonably achievable gross total resection should be considered as an integral part of the treatment strategy in glioblastoma with partial corpus callosum infiltration."],["dc.identifier.doi","10.1038/s41598-022-23794-6"],["dc.identifier.pii","23794"],["dc.identifier.uri","https://resolver.sub.uni-goettingen.de/purl?gro-2/118028"],["dc.language.iso","en"],["dc.notes.intern","DOI-Import GROB-621"],["dc.relation.eissn","2045-2322"],["dc.rights.uri","https://creativecommons.org/licenses/by/4.0"],["dc.title","Prognostic differences and implications on treatment strategies between butterfly glioblastoma and glioblastoma with unilateral corpus callosum infiltration"],["dc.type","journal_article"],["dc.type.internalPublication","yes"],["dspace.entity.type","Publication"]]

Considering the treatment duration and its side effects identification of patients with survival benefit from treatment is essential to guarantee the best achievable quality of life. The aim of this study was to evaluate the survival benefit from radio-chemotherapy and to identify clinical, molecular, and imaging parameters associated with better outcome in patients with biopsied GBMs. Consecutive patients with inoperable GBM who underwent tumor biopsy at our department from 2005 to 2019 were retrospectively analyzed. All patients had histologically confirmed GBM and were followed up until death. The overall survival (OS) was calculated from date of diagnosis to date of death. Clinical, radiological, and molecular predictors of OS were evaluated. A total of 95 patients with biopsied primary GBM were enrolled in the study. The mean age was 64.3 ± 13.2 years; 56.8% (54/95) were male, and 43.2% (41/95) female. Median OS in the entire cohort was 5.5 months. After stratification for adjuvant treatment, a higher median OS was found in the group with adjuvant treatment (7 months, range 2–88) compared to the group without treatment (1 month, range 1–5) log-rank test, p  < 0.0001. Patients with inoperable GBM undergoing biopsy indeed experience a very limited OS. Adjuvant treatment is associated with significantly longer OS compared to patients not receiving treatment and should be considered, especially in younger patients with good clinical condition at presentation."],["dc.identifier.doi","10.1007/s10143-022-01754-y"],["dc.identifier.pii","1754"],["dc.identifier.uri","https://resolver.sub.uni-goettingen.de/purl?gro-2/105601"],["dc.language.iso","en"],["dc.notes.intern","DOI-Import GROB-530"],["dc.relation.eissn","1437-2320"],["dc.relation.issn","0344-5607"],["dc.rights.uri","https://creativecommons.org/licenses/by/4.0"],["dc.title","Defining the impact of adjuvant treatment on the prognosis of patients with inoperable glioblastoma undergoing biopsy only: does the survival benefit outweigh the treatment effort?"],["dc.type","journal_article"],["dc.type.internalPublication","yes"],["dspace.entity.type","Publication"]]
