Gross total resection is linked with better lifespan in humans (IDH-wildtype glioblastoma) (p < 0.005).
“GTR and age ≤ 70 years were independent predictors of a longer overall survival (p < 0.005).”

What is Gross total resection linked with?
2Studies link Gross total resection with 2 measures, most often postoperative functional recovery (1 study) and overall survival (1).

Postoperative functional recovery

Gross total resection predicts postoperative functional recovery in humans (glioblastoma, IDH-wildtype).
