  • Implementing specific INM modalities including motor evoked potential (MEP), brainstem auditory evoked potential (BAEP), and visual evoked potential (VEP).
  • Main Results:

    • INM provides structural mapping of compressed cranial nerves.
    • Continuous monitoring allows for real-time assessment of neural function preservation.
    • The data recorded and interpreted guide surgical decisions to protect neural structures.

    Conclusions:

    • Appropriate recording and interpretation of INM data are vital for successful skull base tumor removal.
    • INM significantly contributes to preventing postoperative neurological deficits.
    • The integration of INM enhances the overall safety and efficacy of skull base surgeries.
