Methods: Between March 2012 and March 2023, 50 cases of tumor-related trigeminal neuralgia were treated with GKRS (tumor was targeted).
Objective: Surgery of eloquent area gliomas is challenging and requires monitoring of the nearby white fiber tracts. In the present study, we analyzed 102 patients with eloquent region gliomas and discussed the concept of intraoperative dynamic white fiber tract navigation and monitoring.
Methods: A total of 102 patients with an eloquent area glioma (52 insular, 29 motor area, 21 temporoparietal) were evaluated.

Knowing the different epidemiological characteristics from high-income nations can target appropriate prevention strategies. This study aims to provide a comprehensive overview of the clinico-epidemiological data of HI patients, focusing on the existing challenges with possible solutions from a developing nation's perspective.
