Abstract

Chemotherapy of malignant glioma has been discussed in relation to recent advances in experimental and clinical studies. It is now obvious that chemotherapy is of increasing importance in the multidisciplinary treatment of malignant gliomas. Survival time of patients was prolonged by intensive and prolonged chemotherapy and by second treatment upon tumour recurrence. Further progress of chemotherapy will be gained by the progressive accumulation of all experiences, however small, in all the varied routes of approach.
