5-Aminolevulinic Acid Fluorescence in High Grade Glioma Surgery: Surgical Outcome, Intraoperative Findings, and Fluorescence Patterns
BACKGROUND 5-Aminolevulinic acid (5-ALA) fluorescence is a validated technique for resection of high grade gliomas (HGG); the aim of this study was to evaluate the surgical outcome and the intraoperative findings in a consecutive series of patients. METHODS Clinical and surgical data from patients affected by HGG who underwent surgery guided by 5-ALA fluorescence at our Department between Jun...
متن کاملPredictive value of intraoperative 5-aminolevulinic acid-induced fluorescence for detecting bone invasion in meningioma surgery.
OBJECT Bone invasion is a major concern in meningioma surgery, since it is predictive of the recurrence of cranial involvement, morbidity, and mortality. Bone invasion has been reported in 20%-68% of studies with histopathologically confirmed data. Unfortunately, radical resection of bone invasion remains challenging. The aim of this study was to assess the role of 5-aminolevulinic acid (5-ALA)...
متن کاملIntraoperative Detection of Superficial Liver Tumors by Fluorescence Imaging Using Indocyanine Green and 5-aminolevulinic Acid.
BACKGROUND/AIM Indocyanine green (ICG) and the porphyrin precursor 5-aminolevulinic acid (5-ALA) have been approved as fluorescence imaging agents in the clinical setting. This study evaluated the usefulness of fluorescence imaging with both ICG and 5-ALA for intraoperative identification of latent small liver tumors. PATIENTS AND METHODS There were 48 patients who had main tumors within 5 mm...
متن کاملThe role of intraoperative magnetic resonance imaging in glioma surgery
For patients with gliomas, the goal of surgery is to maximize the extent of tumor resection while avoiding injury to functional tissue. The hope is to improve patients' survival and maintain the highest quality of life as possible. However, because of the infiltrative nature of gliomas these two goals often oppose each other so a compromise must be met. Many tools have been developed to help wi...
