Patient No. | Tract | Preoperative Assessment Based on Tractography | Postoperative Assessment Based on Tractography |
---|---|---|---|
1 | Left CB | Deviated and infiltrated | Returns to normal position; locally interrupted |
Left CST | Deviated and deformed | Close to normal | |
CC | Interrupted and partially deviated | Reduced deviations/thinned | |
2 | Left CST | Deviated | Normal |
Left IFOF | Locally interrupted | Locally interrupted | |
3 | Left CST | Deviated (with splaying and deformation) | Reduced deviation |
4 | Right CR | Infiltrated and partially deviated | More normal appearing; no apparent deviation; reduced region of infiltration |
Right CC | Deviated and partially infiltrated | No apparent deviation; reduced region of infiltration | |
Right SLF | Deviated and possible infiltration | No apparent deviation or infiltrations of the trunk region | |
5 | Left CST | Deviated | More normal position |
6 | Right CST | Slightly deviated | Normal |
Right IFOF/UF | Minor deviations with deformation | More normal position |
Note:—CB indicates cingulum bundle; CST, cortico-spinal tract; CC, corpus callosum; IFOF, inferior fronto-occipital fasciculus; CR, corona radiata; SLF, superior longitudinal fasciculus; UF, uncinate fasciculus.
