Background: Re-irradiation (ReRT) is an effective treatment modality in appropriately selected patients with recurrent/progressive high-grade glioma (HGG). The literature is limited regarding recurrence patterns following ReRT, which was investigated in the current study. Methods: Patients with available radiation (RT) contours, dosimetry, and imaging-based evidence of recurrence were included in the retrospective study. All patients were treated with fractionated focal conformal RT. Recurrence was detected on imaging with magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) and/ or amino-acid positron emission tomography (PET), which was co-registered with the RT planning dataset. Failure patterns were classified as central, marginal, and distant if >80%, 20–80%, or <20% of the recurrence volumes were within 95% isodose lines, respectively. Results: Thirty-seven patients were included in the current analysis. A total of 92% of patients had undergone surgery before ReRT, and 84% received chemotherapy. The median time to recurrence was 9 months. Central, marginal, and distant failures were seen in 27 (73%), 4 (11%), and 6 (16%) patients, respectively. None of the patient-, disease-, or treatment-related factors were significantly different across different recurrence patterns. Conclusion: Failures are seen predominantly within the high-dose region following ReRT in recurrent/ progressive HGG.
