Changing the clinical course of glioma patients by preoperative motor mapping with navigated transcranial magnetic brain stimulation

SM Krieg, N Sollmann, T Obermueller, J Sabih… - BMC cancer, 2015 - Springer
Background Mapping of the motor cortex by navigated transcranial magnetic stimulation
(nTMS) can be used for preoperative planning in brain tumor patients. Just recently, it has
been proven to actually change outcomes by increasing the rate of gross total resection
(GTR) and by reducing the surgery-related rate of paresis significantly in cohorts of patients
suffering from different entities of intracranial lesions. Yet, we also need data that shows
whether these changes also lead to a changed clinical course, and can also be achieved …

(nTMS) can be used for preoperative planning in brain tumor patients. Just recently, it has
been proven to actually change outcomes by increasing the rate of gross total resection and
by reducing the surgery-related rate of paresis. Yet, we also need data that shows if these
changes also lead to a changed clinical course. Methods We prospectively enrolled 70
patients with supratentorial motor eloquently located high-grade gliomas (HGG) undergoing …
