Department of Neurosurgery, Georg August University of Gottingen, Robert Koch Strasse 40, 37075 Gottingen, Germany
Eur Spine J 20:860-8. 2011..The use of robotic guidance significantly increased accuracy of screw positioning while reducing the X-ray exposure. Patients seem to have a better perioperative course following percutaneous procedures... - Frequent hypermethylation of the DNA repair gene MGMT in long-term survivors of glioblastoma multiformeRamon Martinez
J Neurooncol 83:91-3. 2007..The methylation rate in LTS GBM was significantly higher (77.8% vs. 39.2%, P = 0.033) which suggests that MGMT hypermethylation is a frequent hallmark of LTS GBM and contributes to characterize this intriguing GBM subtype...
