Role of Neural Plasticity of Motor Cortex in Gliomas Evaluated by Brain Imaging and Mapping Techniques in Pre- and Postoperative Period: A Systematic Review
Abstract:Background Resection of infiltrative neuroepithelial primary brain tumors, such as low-grade gliomas (LGG) remains a neurosurgical challenge. Usual lack of clinical deficit despite LGG growing in eloquent brain areas may be explained by reshaping and reorganization of functional networks. The development of modern diagnostic imaging techniques could disclose better understanding of the rearrangement of brain cortex, however mechanisms underlying such compensation and how it occurs in the motor cortex remains u… Show more
