Gross Total Resection of Glioma with the Intraoperative Fluorescence-guidance of Fluorescein Sodium
OBJECTIVE High dose fluorescein sodium has been utilized for fluorescence-guided tumor resection with conflicting reports on the efficacy of this procedure. The aim of this study was to reevaluate the utility and clinical limitations of using fluorescein sodium for the treatment and resection of glioma brain tumors. METHODS Patients diagnosed with glioma were divided into two groups with a to...
متن کاملExtent of Resection in Glioblastoma.
The article by Nam and de Groot provides a good overview of treatment options and considerations forglioblastoma. Surgery is a critical mainstay providing diagnostic and therapeutic benefits. The importance of extent of resection for glioblastoma has been debated for decades. Not only important at diagnosis, the relevanceof extent of resection at recurrence is increasing as patients with gliobl...
متن کاملImage guidance for brain metastases resection
The primary goal in removing a metastatic brain tumor is to maximize surgical resection while minimizing the risk of neurological injury. Intraoperative image guidance is frequently used in the resection of both primary and metastatic brain tumors. Stereotactic volumetric techniques allow for smaller craniotomies, facilitate lesion localization, and help neurosurgeons avoid eloquent structures....
متن کاملFluorescence guided resection and glioblastoma in 2015: A review.
High-grade gliomas represent a widely heterogeneous group of tumors, the most frequent of which is glioblastoma multiforme. Its annual incidence has risen over the last decades, particularly amongst elderly people. The actual standards of care allow for a 15-month median survival rate for WHO grade IV gliomas. As recurrence occurs in more than 85% of patients at the surgical margins, the initia...
متن کاملExtent of Resection and Survival in Glioblastoma Multiforme.
OBJECTIVE The influence of the degree of resection on survival in patients with glioblastoma multiforme is still under discussion. The highly controlled 5-aminolevulinic acid study provided a unique platform for addressing this question as a result of the high frequency of "complete" resections, as revealed by postoperative magnetic resonance imaging scans achieved by fluorescence-guided resect...
