  • Title: [Reoperation for recurrent gliomas].
    Author: Xu WL.
    Journal: Zhonghua Wai Ke Za Zhi; 1992 Nov; 29(12):768-9, 799. PubMed ID: 1618041.
    Abstract:
    Twenty-three cases of recurrent gliomas were reoperated upon. The indications and some factors influencing the length of survival time after reoperation were studied. It was found that reoperation is important in the management of recurrent gliomas, but strict indications must be followed with special attention to prevent CSF leakage, breaking and infection of the incision. Reoperation is not only to prolong life time but also to improve living quality. After reoperation, a comprehensive treatment is needed.
