Summary:[...]the time to pain relief took 1.5 months which is similar to the latency for a first treatment. [...]the definition of SMA and the resected cortical area should be described more concretely. Because the extent and topography of the resected medial frontal area have been well-known associative factors for the characteristics of the SMA syndrome, as previously reported, the resection of the SMA and Rolandic area is still challenging to neurosurgeons. The authors suggested that intraoperative direct cortical stimulation mapping and evoked potential monitoring might guarantee safe resection of those regions. [...]the exact understanding of the topographical characteristics of those regions can help neurosurgeons to plan the resected area.
