Wernicke area low-grade glioma
Introduction Lesions in close proximity to essential cortical language functions, namely the Broca and Wernicke areas, have long been considered to not be amenable to surgical resection. Unlike in strokes,…
Broca area low-grade glioma
Introduction The goal of achieving extensive resection for low-grade gliomas (LGGs) in eloquent regions is a relatively new paradigm, as many recent studies are now showing that observation and lesser…
Left perirolandic low-grade glioma
Introduction Gliomas are known to infiltrate cortical areas and white matter tracts. , In low-grade gliomas (LGGs), there can be interspersing tumor with nontumor tissue. Therefore when LGGs involve eloquent…
Right perirolandic low-grade glioma
Introduction Low-grade gliomas (LGGs) are characterized by the presence of mutations in the isocitrate dehydrogenase (IDH) gene, in which low-grade oligodendrogliomas also possess codeletion of chromosomes 1p and 19q, whereas…
Left frontal low-grade glioma
Introduction Gliomas account for 27% of all brain tumors, and the overwhelming majority of gliomas are malignant. Low-grade gliomas (LGGs) represent approximately 30% of glioma cases and include World Health…
Right frontal low-grade glioma
Introduction Low-grade gliomas (LGGs) represent a heterogenous group of intrinsic brain neoplasms that typically occur in younger, healthier individuals. In 2012, there were approximately 66,000 new primary central nervous system…
