 PAGE \* MERGEFORMAT 14 Posterior cranial fossa brain tumor surgery in the role of neurophysiological monitoring Study: Yongjian Lu Qi Mao had long white cloud Zhu Shiqiang Keyan Bin Bin [Abstract] Objective: To investigate the posterior fossa tumor resection using intraoperative neurophysiological monitoring in cranial nerve function. Methods: The hospital in January 2008 ~ June 2009 in patients with posterior fossa brain tumors in 23 cases, all patients In the course of tumor resection are monitoring section , , , cranial nerves, analysis results. Results: Total removal of the tumor in 17 cases, near total resection of tumor in 3 cases, 3 cases of partial tumor resection. after 3 months of House- Brackmann facial paralysis grade 2 cases, ~ grade 3 cases, ~ grade 18 cases; swallowing dysfunction in 2 cases. Conclusion: The posterior fossa brain tumor surgery in the monitoring section , , , cranial nerves EMG can protect patients with the corresponding cranial nerve function.

Conclusion: Intraoperative monitoring cranial nerves with , , , could protect cranial nerves function during posterior fossa tumor being resected.
