BACKGROUND: Minimally-invasive approaches are attractive alternative to standard craniotomy for large intracranial tumors with potentially lesser morbidity. In this report, we describe a sequential combination of two minimally-invasive surgical techniques to treat a large intracranial tumor.
CLINICAL PRESENTATION: A 49year-old woman presented with a history of breast cancer and large left parietal metastasis with significant perilesional edema. This was initially managed by whole brain radiation therapy and stereotactic radiosurgery. The patient underwent laser ablation of the tumor followed by internal tumor debulking using an exoscopic-assisted tubular retractor system. Post-operative MRI showed gross total coverage of the tumor by laser ablation and alleviation of mass effect. The patient recovered well and discharged on second postoperative day.
CONCLUSION: The minimally-invasive combination of laser ablation followed by internal debulking using a tubular retractor device could be done safely and effectively as a minimally invasive alternative to standard craniotomy for large intracranial tumors.
