PURPOSE: The anatomical association between the lesion and the perforating arteries supplying the pyramidal tract in insulo-opercular glioma resection should be evaluated. This study reported a novel method combining the intra-arterial administration of contrast medium and ultrahigh-resolution computed tomography angiography (UHR-IA-CTA) for visualizing the lenticulostriate arteries (LSAs), long insular arteries (LIAs), and long medullary arteries (LMAs) that supply the pyramidal tract in two patients with insulo-opercular glioma.
METHODS: This method was performed by introducing a catheter to the cervical segment of the internal carotid artery. The infusion rate was set at 3 mL/s for 3 s, and the delay time from injection to scanning was determined based on the time-to-peak on angiography. On 2- and 20-mm-thick UHR-IA-CTA slab images and fusion with magnetic resonance images, the anatomical associations between the perforating arteries and the tumor and pyramidal tract were evaluated.
RESULTS: This novel method clearly showed the relationship between the perforators that supply the pyramidal tract and tumor. It showed that LIAs and LMAs were far from the lesion but that the proximal LSAs were involved in both cases. Based on these results, subtotal resection was achieved without complications caused by injury of perforators.
CONCLUSION: UHR-IA-CTA can be used to visualize the LSAs, LIAs, and LMAs clearly and provide useful preoperative information for insulo-opercular glioma resection.
