Additional information
This procedure is designed for large glial brain tumors and performed using microsurgical internal decompression to safely reduce tumor volume while preserving surrounding functional brain tissue. Navigation-guided surgery and intraoperative neurophysiological monitoring (EP) enhance precision and safety. Duraplasty with galeal graft and cranioplasty are performed when required for optimal reconstruction. Comprehensive perioperative imaging and structured ICU monitoring ensure safe postoperative recovery.
