Abstract

Background

Awake surgery to preserve language function in young children is challenging, therefore reliable non-invasive work-up of language functional anatomy is needed to preserve language function at any cost. Furthermore, there are obvious limitations of an awake craniotomy with direct stimulation on a child.

Case report

A 6-year-old boy with a low-grade glioma of the left temporal lobe suffering from epileptic seizures underwent surgery, guided by preoperative transcranial magnetic stimulation (TMS) language mapping and consecutive DTI fiber tracking.

Discussion and conclusion

We report successful surgery of a language eloquent brain tumor in a young child based on TMS mapping and DTI fiber tracking alone. Surgical treatment of left-sided perisylvian tumors in children is discussed.

S3-Leitlinie „Diagnostik und Therapie des Karpaltunnelsyndroms“

Karpaltunnelsyndrom BDC Leitlinien Webinare
CME: 2 Punkte

Das Karpaltunnelsyndrom ist die häufigste Kompressionsneuropathie peripherer Nerven. Obwohl die Anamnese mit dem nächtlichen Einschlafen der Hand (Brachialgia parästhetica nocturna) sehr typisch ist, ist eine klinisch-neurologische Untersuchung und Elektroneurografie in manchen Fällen auch eine Neurosonografie erforderlich. Im Anfangsstadium sind konservative Maßnahmen (Handgelenksschiene, Ergotherapie) empfehlenswert. Bei nicht Ansprechen der konservativen Therapie oder Auftreten von neurologischen Ausfällen ist eine Dekompression des N. medianus am Karpaltunnel indiziert.

S2e-Leitlinie „Distale Radiusfraktur“

Radiusfraktur BDC Leitlinien Webinare
CME: 2 Punkte

Das Webinar beschäftigt sich mit Fragen und Antworten zu Diagnostik und Klassifikation sowie Möglichkeiten des Ausschlusses von Zusatzverletzungen. Die Referenten erläutern, welche Frakturen konservativ behandelt werden können und wie. Das Webinar beantwortet die Frage nach aktuellen operativen Therapiekonzepten: Welcher Zugang, welches Osteosynthesematerial? Auf was muss bei der Nachbehandlung der distalen Radiusfraktur geachtet werden?
