Safe Brain Tumor Resection Does not Depend on Surgery Alone - Role of Hemodynamics.

ABSTRACT: Aim of this study was to determine if perioperative hemodynamics have an impact on perioperative infarct volume and patients' prognosis. 201 cases with surgery for a newly diagnosed or recurrent glioblastoma were retrospectively analyzed. Clinical data and perioperative hemodynamic parameters, blood tests and time of surgery were recorded. Postoperative infarct volume was quantitatively assessed by semiautomatic segmentation. Mean diastolic blood pressure (dBP) during surgery (rho -0.239, 95% CI -0.11 - -0.367, p = 0.017), liquid balance (rho 0.236, 95% CI 0.1-0.373, p = 0.017) and mean arterial pressure (MAP) during surgery (rho -0.206, 95% CI -0.07 - -0.34, p = 0.041) showed significant correlation to infarct volume. A rank regression model including also age and recurrent surgery as pos
