Popis: Frameless stereotactic brain biopsy (FSB) with navigation system has been widely used. We reported preliminary experience of FSB with intraoperative computed tomography (iCT) and examined the usefulness of this novel adjuvant technique and real target registration error (rTRE) of FSB. The FSB with 5-aminolevulinic acid (5-ALA) and iCT was performed on 10 patients. The gadolinium-enhanced lesions on magnetic resonance image were defined as the biopsy target. In the procedure, iCTs were scanned twice, for autoregistration of the navigation system and for confirmation of the position of the actual inserted biopsy needle. The red fluorescence of the samples was observed under excitation with violet-blue light through a low-cut filter of neurosurgical microscope. The distance between the planned target and the tip of the biopsy needle in the image of iCT was calculated in a workstation for the assessment of rTRE. The median volume of the target was 12.13 mL (0.06-39.15 mL). We performed the surgical procedure in a prone position in four patients. None to faint 5-ALA-induced fluorescence was observed in six samples. There existed no sampling errors. The mean target distance between the planned and real targets of the mean rTRE of FSB was 2.7 ± 0.56 mm. The real TRE of FSB was first reported and was larger than the reported rTRE exactly calculated from the fiducial registration error. iCT guarantees accurate tumor sampling with autoregistration regardless of the surgical position and prevents inaccurate biopsy to occur even with ALA fluorescence assistance.
