Anaesthesia for awake craniotomy: A retrospective study of 54 cases
Background and Aims: The anaesthetic challenge of awake craniotomy is to maintain adequate sedation, analgesia, respiratory and haemodynamic stability in an awake patient who should be able to co-operate during intraoperative neurological assessment. The

Awake craniotomy for tumour resection: The safety and feasibility of a simple technique
Introduction: Awake craniotomy is widely used for surgery in eloquent brain in order to facilitate maximal safe resection of brain tumours. There has been huge progress in both surgical and anaesthetic techniques used during awake craniotomy.

Resting state functional connectivity magnetic resonance imaging integrated with intraoperative neuronavigation for functional mapping after aborted awake craniotomy [PDF]
BACKGROUND: Awake craniotomy is currently the gold standard for aggressive tumor resections in eloquent cortex. However, a significant subset of patients is unable to tolerate this procedure, particularly the very young or old or those with psychiatric ...

Nociceptive neuropeptide increases and periorbital allodynia in a model of traumatic brain injury. [PDF]
OBJECTIVE: This study tests the hypothesis that injury to the somatosensory cortex is associated with periorbital allodynia and increases in nociceptive neuropeptides in the brainstem in a mouse model of controlled cortical impact (CCI) injury.
