European Journal of Anaesthesiology, 10/15/09
Bonhomme V et al. – Awake craniotomy has become an increasingly frequent procedure. In this paper, the principles of its anaesthetic management are reviewed. The means allowing achievement of anaesthetic objectives are described, with emphasis on points that determine success of the procedure. More prospective randomized clinical trials are still needed to improve safety and efficacy of awake craniotomies, as well as to validate this technique in comparison with more conventional anaesthetic management.
