Predictors of tumor progression among children with gangliogliomas
Journal of Neurosurgery: Pediatrics, 06/03/09
Khashab ME et al. - The PFS and overall survival of children with gangliogliomas are good. Tumors located in the cerebral hemispheres, the achievement of total resection, and seizures at presentation were associated with prolonged PFS. Cox regression analysis identified presenting symptoms including seizures as significant predictive factors of PFS. Prospective studies with larger numbers of children are needed to define the significant factors of tumor progression.
