Figure/Graphic 5: Awake Craniotomy Kaplan-Meier curve of survival for elderly patients (65 years) with highgrade gliomas (HGG) who underwent awake-craniotomy gross tumour resection (GTR) compared to subtotal resection (STR) or biopsy. Median survival was significantly longer for patients with HGG who underwent GTR compared to those who underwent STR or biopsy (10.8 vs 7.8 months, respectively; p = 0.039) [39]. |
