Background: Non-invasive brain mapping using navigated transcranial magnetic stimulation (nTMS) is a valuable tool prior to resection of malignant brain tumors. With nTMS motor mapping, it is additionally possible to analyze the function of the motor system and to evaluate tumor-induced neuroplasticity. Distinct changes in motor cortex excitability induced by certain malignant brain tumors are a focal point of research. Methods: A retrospective single-center study was conducted involving patients with malignant brain tumors. Clinical data, resting motor threshold (rMT), and nTMS-based tractography were evaluated. The interhemispheric rMT-ratio (rMTTumor/rMTControl) was calculated for each extremity and considered pathological if it was >110% or |
