P32. Improved reliabilty of intraoperative language mapping through preoperative nTMS and baseline linguistic scores
Sign Up to like & getrecommendations! Published in 2018 at "Clinical Neurophysiology"
DOI: 10.1016/j.clinph.2018.04.673
Abstract: Objective Repetitive navigated transcranial magnetic stimulation (rnTMS) and direct cortical stimulation (DCS) during awake surgery are complementary tools to locate speech functional areas of the brain. However, patients show inter-individual differences in their preoperative linguistic… read more here.

DOI: 10.1016/j.neuropsychologia.2020.107727
Abstract: How do we choose words, and what affects the selection of a specific term? Naming tests such as the DO80 are frequently used to assess language function during brain mapping in awake surgery. The present… read more here.

DOI: 10.1016/j.wneu.2018.08.155
Abstract: Low-grade glioma (LGG) usually occurs in young patients who enjoy an active family, social, and professional life. Because awake surgery for patients with LGG has resulted in significant improvement in both functional and oncological outcomes… read more here.

DOI: 10.1227/neu.0000000000002477
Abstract: BACKGROUND Failure in achieving a function-based resection related to the insufficient patient's participation is a drawback of awake surgery. OBJECTIVE To assess preoperative parameters predicting the risk of patient insufficient intraoperative cooperation leading to the… read more here.

DOI: 10.23736/s0390-5616.17.04017-6
Abstract: The traditional principle underlying oncological neurosurgery is to remove a tumor mass displacing the brain in order to increase survival. Recently, advances in connectomics enabled an improved understanding of cerebral processing, and led to a… read more here.

Impact of Anticipated Awake Surgery on Psychooncological Distress in Brain Tumor Patients
Sign Up to like & getrecommendations! Published in 2022 at "Frontiers in Oncology"
DOI: 10.3389/fonc.2021.795247
Abstract: Background Brain tumor patients present high rates of distress, anxiety, and depression, in particular perioperatively. For resection of eloquent located cerebral lesions, awake surgery is the gold standard surgical method for the preservation of speech… read more here.

Neurocognitive Outcome and Seizure Freedom After Awake Surgery of Gliomas
Sign Up to like & getrecommendations! Published in 2022 at "Frontiers in Oncology"
DOI: 10.3389/fonc.2022.815733
Abstract: Objectives Gliomas are often diagnosed due to epileptic seizures as well as neurocognitive deficits. First treatment choice for patients with gliomas in speech-related areas is awake surgery, which aims at maximizing tumor resection while preserving… read more here.
