Area of Science:

  • Neurosurgery
  • Oncology

Context:

  • Insular gliomas present unique surgical challenges due to their deep location.
  • Damage to adjacent critical brain structures can lead to significant neurological deficits.

Purpose:

  • To detail microsurgical techniques for insular glioma resection.
  • To emphasize methods for protecting surrounding normal brain structures and vasculature.

Summary:

  • A retrospective analysis of 54 patients with insular gliomas treated with microsurgery via the trans-sylvian fissure approach.
  • The study outlines surgical techniques, focusing on identifying and preserving key blood vessels and neural tissues.
  • Achieved 36 complete removals, 14 secondary complete removals, and 4 partial removals, with a discussion of postoperative complications.
