Glioblastoma multiforme has been and still is themost common and most lethal of brain tumors forwhich neither surgical nor adjuvant therapies canbe applied. Though the average period of survivalfollowing surgery is less than a year, there havebeen a few patients who survived for longer periods.

A statistical evaluation of factors affecting thesurvival period was conducted by studying 71 casesof histologically confirmed, supratentorial and ope-rated glioblastoma multiforme in adult treatedduring the past 16 years, the conclusions being asfollow:

1. The roentgenographic state of calcificationsand histologic appearance of the neoplasma havesignificance in regard to the post-operative periodof survival.

2. Post-operative adjuvant treatment, location ofthe neoplasma and the duration of pre-operativesymptoms have some effect on the period of survival.

3. The patient's age at onset and pre-operativecondition, and the cystic formation of the neoplasmasomewhat affect the period of survival.

4. Such other factors as the patient's sex, surgicalmethods, adjuvant treatment methods, interval be-tween first and second hospitalization, frequency ofhospitalization, state of survival, cause of death,etc., are not constant prognostic factors.
