Background: To explore the altered malignant behavior, prognosis and survival of glioblastoma in contact with Subventricular Zone (SVZ) and independent predictors on patients' overall survival.
Method: The records of 131 patients with supratentorial primary glioblastoma who underwent surgery at our hospital between 2012 and 2018 were reviewed retrospectively. The authors reviewed preoperative MRI images and divided patients into two groups: Glioblastoma not in contact with SVZ (G-SVZ) and glioblastoma in contact with SVZ (G + SVZ).
