Abstract

This is a retrospective analysis of high grade glioma cases treated in N.C.I during the period from 2000-2009.
The most important prognostic factors in literature were tumor grade, performance status, radiation dose, extent of surgery and use of concurrent and adjuvant temozolamide.
The independent prognostic factors in this study were tumor grade, performance status and radiation dose.
Extent of surgery & effect of temozolamide were not evident in our study due to very limited no. of patients who received temozolamide or underwent GTR.
Limitations in this study were bad recording in files, selection bias, improper assessment of performance status and grading of toxicity and irregular follow up of the patients
