PURPOSE: The vital function of eloquent and deep brain areas necessitates precise treatment for tumors located in these regions. Fluorescein-guided surgery (FGS) has been widely used for high-grade gliomas (HGGs) resection. Nevertheless, the safety and efficacy of utilizing this technique for resecting brain tumors located in eloquent and deep-seated areas remain uncertain. This study aims to assess the safety and extent of resection of HGGs in these challenging tumors with fluorescein and explore its impact on patient survival.
METHODS: A retrospective analysis was conducted on the clinical and radiological data of 67 consecutive patients with eloquent or deep-seated HGGs who underwent surgery between January 2020 and June 2023. Lacroix functional location grade was used to determine the eloquence of the tumors. The comparison between the fluorescence-guided surgery group (FGS, n = 32) and the conventional white-light microscopic surgery group (non-FGS, n = 35) included assessments of extent of resection (EOR), rates of gross total resection (GTR, 100%) and near-total resection (NTR, 99 to 98%), postoperative Neurologic Assessment in Neuro-Oncology (NANO) scores, overall survival (OS), and progression-free survival (PFS), to evaluate the safety and efficacy of fluorescein-guided technology in tumor resection at these specific locations.
RESULTS: Baseline of demographics, lesion location, and pathology showed no significant difference between the two groups. GTR of the FGS group was higher than the non-FGS group (84.4% vs. 60.0%, OR 3.60, 95% CI 1.18-10.28, p < 0.05). The FGS group also showed higher GTR + NTR (EOR ≥ 98%) than the non-FGS group (93.8% vs. 65.7%, OR 7.83, 95% CI 1.86-36.85, p < 0.01). 87.0% of eloquent tumors (Lacroix grade III) in the FGS group achieved GTR + NTR, compared to 52.2% of control group (OR 6.11, 95% CI 1.50-22.78, p < 0.05). For deep-seated tumors, the rate of GTR + NTR in the two groups were 91.7% and 53.3%, respectively (OR 9.62, 95% CI 1.05-116.50, p < 0.05). No significant difference of the preoperative NANO score of the two groups was found. The postoperative NANO score of the FGS group was significantly lower than the non-FGS group (2.56 ± 1.29 vs. 3.43 ± 1.63, p < 0.05). Median OS of the FGS group was 4.2 months longer than the non-FGS group despite no statistical difference (18.2 months vs. 14.0 months, HR 0.63, 95% CI 0.36-1.11, p = 0.112), while PSF was found significantly longer in FGS patients than those of the non-FGS group (11.2 months vs. 7.7 months, HR 0.59, 95% CI 0.35-0.99, p < 0.05).
CONCLUSION: Sodium fluorescein-guided surgery for high-grade gliomas in eloquent and deep-seated brain regions enables more extensive resection while preserving neurologic function and improve patient survival.
