Evaluation of preoperative cortical excitability patterns in patients undergoing glioblastoma resection in the motor area

Puntos clave

• Preoperative cortical excitability patterns significantly influence surgical risk and patient outcomes during glioblastoma resection.
• A notable correlation was observed between specific excitability patterns and functional areas in the motor cortex, highlighting clinical relevance.
• Assessment involved a detailed examination of brain mapping techniques to evaluate cortical responses pre-surgery and their implications for neurosurgery.
• The findings underscore the need for tailored preoperative interventions to optimize surgical strategies and minimize complications.
