This investigation suggested that adjuvant treatment after incomplete resection of ATMNGs are associated with longer PFS than conservative treatment, and that there is no difference of PFS between hydroxyurea chemotherapy and radiotherapy after surgery. Therefore, hydroxyurea chemotherapy can be considered as another adjuvant tool for the ATMNGs if the postoperative adjuvant radiotherapy cannot be applicable.
