Abstract
After GTR without postoperative radiation, AMs have a high recurrence rate. Most recurrences occurred within 5 years after resection. Recurrences caused numerous reoperations per patient and shortened survival. Our finding suggesting lower recurrence rates in patients undergoing immediate postoperative radiation should be investigated in larger, prospective series.
