Abstract

Nurses in neurosurgical departments play a critical role as they are involved in the first stages of the care pathway of patients with glioblastoma. Indeed, surgery enables a definitive histopathological diagnosis to be established and the size of the tumour to be significantly reduced, thereby improving the prognosis.

Keywords: biopsie; biopsy; excision; exérèse; glioblastoma; glioblastome; neurochirurgie; neurosurgery; nursing care; soin infirmier.
