Abstract
The authors prospectively treated 18 consecutive patients with low-grade oligodendroglial tumors without postoperative radiotherapy. The treatment strategy was as follows: follow-up after total resection and chemotherapy after subtotal resection or biopsy. All patients were alive and 17 patients (94%) were progression-free after a median follow-up of 4.7 years. The results suggested that radiotherapy could be postponed until clinical progression in the treatment of low-grade oligodendroglial tumors.
