Eloquent glioma resection assisted by brain connectomics: A new tool for awake neurosurgery.

Several studies have observed high resection rates with a low range of permanent deficits or associated complications.[ 4 ] A 2021 meta-analysis revealed a nonsignificant higher rate of gross total resection and shorter length of stay, as well as a nonsignificant trend toward a smaller rate of late motor deficits with intraoperative awake mapping when compared to resection under general anesthesia.[ 2 ] It is possible that the impact of these findings is diminished due to high heterogeneity between studies.
