Abstract:	Gliomas are primary brain tumors which are often fatal. Recent data has demonstrated that despite the fact that surgery cannot cure gliomas, that patient survival is substantially improved by removing as much as possible. This fact has raised the imperative that neurologists try to improve techniques to bring surgical resection to as many patients as possible. Many gliomas have been deemed inoperable due to the high risk of taking them out, and the perceived lack of benefit for doing so. New insights and technologies have begun to allow many of these tumors to be removed with good results. Surgery for 'Inoperable' Gliomas radically challenge the assumption that certain gliomas cannot be removed with modern techniques by demonstrating the techniques of many surgeons who are innovating in this field to tackle these difficult tumors. This book challenges stereotypical thinking and establishes new paradigms in the field. First comprehensive book to discuss techniques for removing gliomas that are traditionally deemed 'inoperable'Great reference tool that challenges stereotypical thinking by offering techniques by innovative surgeonsChapters organized by different glioma types and surgery/techniques
