Sodium Fluorescein-Guided Resection under the YELLOW 560 nm Surgical Microscope Filter in Malignant Gliomas: Our First 38 Cases Experience
Figure 2
Case (30). (a) Preoperative axial, sagittal, and coronal T1-weighted gadolinium-enhancement MR image revealed a left frontal GBM (tumor volume 13.32 cm3). (b) Postoperative (in 24 hours after surgery) axial T1-weighted gadolinium-enhancement MR image, revealing a gross total resection of the tumor without any area of CE region. (c) intraoperative view under YELLOW 560 filter revealing biopsy specimen was obtained beyond the margin of FL-labeled area. (d) Pathological image results revealed almost normal brain tissues (red arrow) and only a few gliocyte proliferation cells (black arrow) were obtained from the region beyond margin of the FL-labeled area (c).
