Abstract

The excision of lesions around motor strip amounts to profound morbidity in term of neurodeficit in postoperative period. Use of navigation and motor strip mapping, connectome study preoperatively for better surgical outcome are useful tools to minimize the neurodeficit specially in patients who are not a candidate for the awake craniotomy. We present our three patients who underwent brain mapping in the excision and gave good postoperative outcome.
