The chromosome 1p/19q deletion has been reported as a good prognosis marker for gliomas. However, the detection of 1p/19q status alone in glioma patients is not sufficient. The identification of a combination of molecular factors could effectively enhance the prediction accuracy. Thus far, the potential correlation between the 1p/19q status and vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF) expression has not been elucidated. The level of VEGF mRNA expression in the tumor and the adjacent normal tissues was determined by real-time polymerase chain reaction.
