Transsulcal microsurgical approach for subcortical small brain lesions: technical note.

摘要

We describe a transsulcal microsurgical approach for removal of small subcortical brain lesions, guided by frameless stereotaxy. This technique of simultaneous stereotactic localization of the subcortical lesion and its adjacent sulcus, before surgical approach, results in optimal surgical planning, leading to minimal brain tissue loss and excellent surgical outcome.
