ABSTRACT
Objective To analyze the application of intraoperative neurophysiological monitoring combined with neuronavigation multi-modal fusion technology in the brainstem glioma resection. Methods One hundred twenty patients with brainstem glioma were divided into observation group and control group. The control group was treated by traditional operation, while the observation group was treated by intraoperative nerve electrophysiological monitoring combined with neuronavigation multimodal fusion technology. The general condition, clinical efficacy, KPS score, complications and survival rate of the two groups were compared. Results The effect was significantly better in the observation group(76.66%)than in control group(53.33%)( x2=11.962,P=0.001).KPS scores were significantly higher in the observation group (27.91 ±1.98) than in the control group (12.11 ±2.13)(t=32.669, P<0.001). Conclusions Intraoperative nerve electrophysiological monitoring plus neuronavigation multimodality fusion technology can improve clinical efficacy and quality of life in patients with brainstem glioma.
