Object Despite better knowledge of cortical language organization, its subcortical
anatomofunctional connectivity remains poorly understood. The authors used intraoperative …

OBJECTIVE: Subcortical stimulation can be used to identify functional language tracts
during resection of gliomas located close to or within language areas or pathways. The …

Functional neuroimaging has improved pre‐planning of surgery in eloquent cortical areas,
but remains unable to map white matter. Thus, tumour resection in functional subcortical …

OBJECTIVE: Evaluation of the accuracy of preoperative localization of language-related
cortex by magnetic resonance imaging-guided positron emission tomography. METHODS …

Abstract IN A SERIES of 40 patients undergoing an awake craniotomy for the removal of a
glioma of the dominant hemisphere temporal lobe, cortical stimulation mapping was used to …

OBJECT The deep frontal pathway connecting the superior frontal gyrus to Broca's area,
recently named the frontal aslant tract (FAT), is assumed to be associated with language …

Background Language sites in the cortex of the brain vary among patients. Language
mapping while the patient is awake is an intraoperative technique designed to minimize …

Object Surgery in the left dominant inferior parietal lobule (IPL) is challenging because of a
high density of somatosensory and language structures, both in the cortex and white matter …

Refinement of neurosurgical technique has enabled safer operations with more aggressive
outcomes. One cornerstone of modern-day practice is the utilization of intraoperative …

Although a primary tenet of neurosurgical oncology is that survival can improve with greater
tumor resection, this principle must be tempered by the potential for functional loss following …
