BACKGROUND: The classical Wada test (cWada), performed by injecting a short-acting anesthetic through the intracarotid route, helps determine language dominance. In the cWada, adverse effects are observed in 10-30% of trials, hindering accurate assessments. In this study, we assessed the effectiveness of the super-selective Wada test (ssWada), a more selective approach for anesthetic infusion into the middle cerebral artery (MCA).
METHODS: We retrospectively examined the data of 17 patients with epilepsy who underwent ssWada via anesthetic injection into one M1 segment of the MCA and at least one contralateral trial.
RESULTS: The ssWada identified 12 patients with left language dominance, 3 with right language dominance, and 2 with bilateral language distribution. Nine trials on the language dominant side resulted in global aphasia for patients with left- or right language dominance. Of the 13 trials conducted on the non-dominant language side, 12 revealed intact language function and one resulted in confusion. Among these, the outcomes of global aphasia or no language impairment were confirmed in the contralateral trials. Among the 22 trials of unilateral M1 injections in patients with unilateral language dominance, 21 (95.5%) showed either global aphasia or no language impairment, indicating language dominance.
CONCLUSIONS: The ssWada yields clear results, with a high rate of over 90% in determining the language dominant hemisphere with few side effects.
