Awake Brain Surgery, also known as Awake Craniotomy, is a specialized neurosurgical procedure performed while the patient is conscious. It is primarily used for removing brain tumors or treating epilepsy when the affected area is close to vital brain regions controlling speech, movement, or vision.

When is Awake Brain Surgery Recommended?

• Tumors located near functional brain areas
• Epilepsy requiring precise localization of seizure focus
• Preservation of language, motor, or sensory functions
• Patient is medically fit and cooperative

How it Works

During the procedure, the patient is awakened after initial sedation while the brain is being operated on. The surgical team engages the patient in simple tasks (like speaking, counting, or moving limbs) to ensure critical areas are not damaged.

Benefits

• Maximizes tumor or lesion removal
• Minimizes risk of neurological deficits
• Real-time brain mapping for accuracy
• Shorter recovery time compared to traditional methods
