Abstract
Background: Recurrence after resection is a major factor in poor prognosis for grade 2 and 3 gliomas. The effect of Supratotal Resection (STR) on recurrence timing remains debated. This meta-analysis examines overall survival (OS) and tumor progression in grade 2 and 3 gliomas after supratotal resection.
Methods: Studies on patients with grade II and III gliomas who underwent supratotal resection were included, with comparisons to subtotal, partial, and total resections. The primary outcomes were overall survival (OS) and tumor progression, while secondary outcomes included return-to-work (RTW) rates, malignant transformations and cognitive impairments.
Results: We included 954 patients from 8 studies, mean age was 39 (± 16) years. The mean OS for patients undergoing supratotal resection was 17.45 (95% CI: 3.39 to 89.74, p < 0.05) compared to TR. The OR for RTW in the STR group versus TR group was 0.12 (95% CI: 0.01 to 1.28, p = 0.08). Tumor progression OR was, no statistical significantly, 0.15 (95% CI: 0.00 to 38.00, p = 0.5), and the likelihood of malignancy was reduced 0.03 (95% CI: 0.01 to 0.18, p < 0.01) compared to the TR group. In the immediate pos-operatory, when comparing STR with TR, the OR of language impairment was 5.47 (95% CI: 2.73 to 10.97, p < 0.01) and cognitive impairment was 0.38 (95% CI: 0.17 to 0.58). During the follow-up, the OR of language impairment was 0.68 (95% CI: 0.25 to 1.81, p = 0.44) and cognitive impairment was 0.34 (95% CI: 0.03 to 3.61, p = 0.37) comparing STR with TR.
Conclusion: Patients with grade 2 and 3 gliomas undergoing supratotal resection showed significantly higher overall survival, fewer malignant transformations and language impairments in immediate pos-operatory. While there was a trend towards higher return-to-work rates, progression of tumor and better cognitive status during the follow-up, it was not statistically significant. Further studies are needed for definitive conclusions.
期刊介绍：
The goal of Neurosurgical Review is to provide a forum for comprehensive reviews on current issues in neurosurgery. Each issue contains up to three reviews, reflecting all important aspects of one topic (a disease or a surgical approach). Comments by a panel of experts within the same issue complete the topic. By providing comprehensive coverage of one topic per issue, Neurosurgical Review combines the topicality of professional journals with the indepth treatment of a monograph. Original papers of high quality are also welcome.
