[Glioblastoma of the cerebrum. Clinical course of the disease with special reference to tumor site].
Glioblastomas are radiation-resistant tumours which react only rarely to radiotherapy. Radiotherapy was employed in such cases only where the condition was not clinically dramatic or terminal. A certain degree of improvement was noted in the patients who had been selected in this manner. Chemotherapy has not yielded any success to date.
