Popis: PURPOSE: Extent of resection remains a paramount prognostic factor for long-term outcomes for glioblastoma. As such, supramaximal resection or anatomic lobectomy have been offered for non-eloquent glioblastoma in an attempt to improve overall survival. Here, we conduct a propensity-matched analysis of patients with non-eloquent glioblastoma who underwent either lobectomy or gross total resection of lesion to investigate the efficacy of supramaximal resection of glioblastoma. METHODS: Patients who underwent initial surgery for gross total resection or lobectomy for non-eloquent glioblastoma at our tertiary care referral center from 2010-2019 were included for this propensity-matched survival analysis. Propensity scores were generated with the following covariates: age, location, preoperative KPS, product of perpendicular maximal tumor diameters, and product of perpendicular FLAIR signal diameters. Inverse probability of treatment weighting (IPTW) with generated propensity scores was used to compare progression-free survival and overall survival. RESULTS: Sixty-nine patients were identified who underwent initial resection of glioblastoma for non-eloquent glioblastoma from 2010-2019 (GTR=37, lobectomy=32). Using IPTW, overall survival (30.7 vs. 14.1 months) and progression-free survival (17.2 vs. 8.1 months were significantly higher in the lobectomy cohort compared to the GTR group (p
