Description Subventricular brain zone (SVZ) and hippocampal regions are supposed to harbor astrocyte-like neural stem cells. While some tumors may arise from transformed SVZ stem cells, other may be initiated by neo-plastic transformation of non-SVZ progenitor cells or mature glial cells. Lim's et al classification (Neuro-Oncology 2007) of initial glioblastoma location, related to these neural stem cells regions, was predictive for invasive and multifocal tumor phenotype. The aim of this retrospective single-institutional study is to evaluate the relations of this Lim classification on survival parameters in unselected cohort of glioblastoma patients.
