- Abstract
This article discusses the evidence supporting the resection of glioblastoma beyond the borders of contrast-enhancing tumor. While several techniques for this have been described, including a so-called FLAIRectomy, lobectomy, or via the use of adjuncts such as fluorescence or intraoperative MRI, the optimal extent of additional resection has yet to be established. Many authors have noted a survival benefit with supramarginal resection without significant additional morbidity., Competing Interests: Disclosure The authors have nothing to disclose., (Copyright © 2024 Elsevier Inc.
