Abstract
Background: Although glioblastoma (GB) is kept up to date, rate of progress is nearly unavoidable. Earlier researches put forward the endurance advantages with removal of GB; but comparatively a small number of literatures have assessed the role of operative intervention in glioblastoma management.
 Objective: The aim of this research is to assess the results of surgical resections in patients with glioblastoma.
 Methods: Study conducted in Bacha Khan Medical College, Mardan Medical Complex Records were retrospectively identified and reviewed for all individuals that went through gliolastoma biopsy or its removal between Oct 2017 and Dec 2020 to identify 50 progressive GB patients. The Kaplan-Meier method produced median survival and 95 percent CI. The Cox Proportional Risks model was used for the multivarian analysis, which conducted for age, Karnofsky score, extent of resection, and tumor site and tumor multifocality of survival after the advancement of disease.
 Results: Patients with progressing illness received first recorded resection. The median survival after progression was 12.8 and 7.0 months for patients who had not received resections at this time. In multivariable analyses, KPS 0.70 (HR 0.438), and surgical intervention were linked with better survival after advancement of glioblastoma.
 Recommendations: In the circumstance of present maximum non-operative treatment, operative intervention for advancing glioblastoma is effective in controlling the symptoms but however, the survival of the patients is limited. Further research is required to determine if any, the role of surgical intervention may prolong post-progressive endurance in progressive GB individuals.
