Article Synopsis
- Anaplastic gangliogliomas (GGGs) are rare brain tumors with unclear progression patterns; this study examined their clinical, imaging, and prognostic features in a group of 43 adult patients from a French database over a ten-year period.* -
- Patients commonly presented with neurological deficits, seizures, or increased intracranial pressure, and imaging typically showed unifocal tumors with features like enhancement and necrosis; treatment often involved surgery followed by radiotherapy.* -
- The study found that while the overall survival rates are slightly better than glioblastomas, tumor characteristics such as midline crossing and location can impact survival; however, no factors remained significant in advanced statistical analysis.*
