“Awake” intraoperative functional MRI (ai-fMRI) for mapping the eloquent cortex: Is it possible in awake craniotomy?☆
As a promising noninvasive imaging technique, functional MRI (fMRI) has been extensively adopted as a functional localization procedure for surgical planning. However, the information provided by preoperative fMRI (pre-fMRI) is hampered by the brain deformation that is secondary to surgical procedures. Therefore, intraoperative fMRI (i-fMRI) becomes a potential alternative that can compensate f...
متن کاملAwake craniotomy and electrophysiological mapping for eloquent area tumours.
OBJECTIVE An awake craniotomy facilitates radical excision of eloquent area gliomas and ensures neural integrity during the excision. The study describes our experience with 67 consecutive awake craniotomies for the excision of such tumours. METHODS Sixty-seven patients with gliomas in or adjacent to eloquent areas were included in this study. The patient was awake during the procedure and in...
متن کاملAwake craniotomy, electrophysiologic mapping, and tumor resection with high-field intraoperative MRI.
BACKGROUND Awake craniotomy and electrophysiologic mapping (EPM) is an established technique to facilitate the resection of near eloquent cortex. Intraoperative magnetic resonance imaging (iMRI) is increasingly used to aid in the resection of intracranial lesions. Standard draping protocols in high-field iMRI units make awake craniotomies challenging, and only two groups have previously reporte...
متن کاملAwake craniotomy versus general anesthesia for managing eloquent cortex low-grade gliomas.
OBJECTIVE To compare awake craniotomy using conscious sedation technique versus conventional general anesthesia (GA) for excision of low-grade glioma encroaching on eloquent brain. METHODS This prospective study included 40 patients ASA classification 1 and 2, aged 23-55 years, harboring low-grade glioma encroaching on eloquent brain. The study was carried out in the Neurosurgical Theatre in ...
متن کاملAmmonia encephalopathy and awake craniotomy for brain language mapping: cause of failed awake craniotomy.
We report the case of an aborted awake craniotomy for a left frontotemporoinsular glioma due to ammonia encephalopathy on a patient taking Levetiracetam, valproic acid and clobazam. This awake mapping surgery was scheduled as a second-stage procedure following partial resection eight days earlier under general anesthesia. We planned to perform the surgery with local anesthesia and sedation with...
