Objective: The aim of our study was to evaluate the usefulness of cortical-subcortical intraoperative brain mapping (ioBM) in resective awake surgery of low-grade gliomas (LGG) of the right non-dominant hemisphere (RndH). It was estimated how ioBM may affect both the extent of resection and postoperative outcome of language, spatial cognition, social cognition, and executive functions including attention and working memory. Patients and Methods: : Fifteen patients that underwent ioBM in resective awake surgery of LGG located on the RndH, were included. A cohort of 15 patients with the same tumour location operated under general anaesthesia without brain mapping was used as control. Specific intraoperative tasks for each location were carried out and results registered. Neuropsychological assessment was performed preoperatively and at 6 months after surgery. Results: In the group of patients operated by using ioBM in awake surgery, an 86.66 % mean of resection was obtained compared to 60.33 % in the control group. Speech arrest and incorrect naming responses were elicited in higher proportion in frontal and insular locations. Parietal stimulation associated higher number of incorrect responses in social cognition task. Parietal and temporal stimulation were more frequently associated with incorrect performance of spatial cognition task. Parietal stimulation associated with higher frequency incorrect execution of attention and working memory tasks. After comparing clinical and neuropsychological results in both cohorts, worst outcome at 6 months was observed in the group of patients operated under general anaesthesia without brain mapping, especially in parietal and insular locations. Conclusions: Intraoperative identification of language, cognitive functions, and social cognition of RndH by means of ioBM, can be of paramount importance in improving the extent of resection of low-grade gliomas and positively affects clinical and neuropsychological outcome at six months.
