We aimed to retrospectively determine the resection rate of fluid-attenuated inversion recovery (FLAIR) lesions to evaluate the clinical effects of supramaximal resection (SMR) on the survival of patients with glioblastoma (GBM). Thirty-three adults with newly diagnosed GBM who underwent gross total tumor resection were enrolled. The tumors were classified into cortical and deep-seated groups according to their contact with the cortical gray matter. Pre- and postoperative FLAIR and gadolinium-enhanced T1-weighted imaging tumor volumes were measured using a three-dimensional imaging volume analyzer, and the resection rate was calculated. To evaluate the association between SMR rate and outcome, we subdivided patients whose tumors were totally resected into the SMR and non-SMR groups by moving the threshold value of SMR in 10% increments from 0% and compared their overall survival (OS) change. An improvement in OS was observed when the threshold value of SMR was 30% or more. In the cortical group (n = 23), SMR (n = 8) tended to prolong OS compared with gross total resection (GTR) (n = 15), with the median OS of 69.6 and 22.1 months, respectively (p = 0.0945). Contrastingly, in the deep-seated group (n = 10), SMR (n = 4) significantly shortened OS compared with GTR (n = 6), with median OS of 10.2 and 27.9 months, respectively (p = 0.0221). SMR could help prolong OS in patients with cortical GBM when 30% or more volume reduction is achieved in FLAIR lesions, although the impact of SMR for deep-seated GBM must be validated in larger cohorts.
