Hello Everyone!
So my Neurosurgery residency diaries continue and I continue sharing as I learn.
Learnt about the Grades of Tumor resection while operating on a Glioma.
These are Simpsons Grades of Tumor resection and are correlated as the degree of surgical resection completeness with with symptomatic recurrence.
These are Simpsons Grades of Tumor resection and are correlated as the degree of surgical resection completeness with with symptomatic recurrence.
Grade I-complete removal including resection of underlying bone and associated dura.
9% symptomatic recurrence at 10 years
Grade II-complete removal and coagulation of dural attachment.
19% symptomatic recurrence at 10 years
Grade III-complete removal without resection of dura or coagulation.
29% symptomatic recurrence at 10 years
Grade IV-subtotal resection of the tumor.
44% symptomatic recurrence at 10 years
Grade V-simple decompression with or without biopsy
100% symptomatic recurrence at 10 years.
That was it!
