摘要：
Introduction: Elderly patients with glioblastoma multiforme (GBM) are frequently excluded from cancer therapy trials, treated suboptimally or not treated at all. The average survival in elderly patients is 4–8 months. The goal of the present study was to evaluate the efficacy of different treatment options in terms of survival in an elderly population affected with GBM.
