Table 2. Correlation of tumor consistency with TCTI score and resection.
Total | Soft | Fibrous | Intermediate | |
---|---|---|---|---|
Population (%) | 202 | 145 (71.8%) | 49 (24.3%) | 8 (3.9%) |
TCTI ratio (95%CI) | 1.7 (1.65–1.74) | 1.67 (1.61–1.73) | 1.74 (1.65–1.83) | 1.82 (1.54–2.1) |
Resection | ||||
GTR | 162 (80.2%) | 123 (84.8%) | 32 (65.3%) | 7 (87.5%) |
Subtotal resection | 33 (16.3%) | 19 (13.1%) | 13 (26.5%) | 1 (12.5%) |
Partial resection | 7 (3.4%) | 3 (2%) | 4 (8.1%) | 0 |
Abbreviations: CI, confidence interval; GTR, gross total resection; TCTI, tumor to cerebellar peduncle T2-weighted imaging intensity.
Subtotal resection (estimated >80% resection); partial resection (estimated <80% resection).
