Malignant gliomas in adults
Malignant gliomas, the most common type of primary brain tumor in adults, are associated
with disproportionate cancer-related morbidity and mortality. Recently, there have been
important advances in our understanding of the molecular pathogenesis of malignant
gliomas and progress in treating them. This review summarizes the diagnosis and
management of these tumors in adults, highlighting new advances.
