Abstract

Objective: evaluating the results of application of needle biopsy with neuro-navigation system in brain tumor biopsy at Vietam National Cancer Hospital. Methods: A retrospective study based on 58 patients diagnosed with brain tumors undergoing biopsy surgery under navigation from February 2022 to August 2023. Researcher do the clinical examination patient, lesions on imaging diagnosis surgery and assess the results of postoperative treatment, combination treatment after surgery. Assessment of indicators of quality of life after surgery according Karnofski scale, evaluate the results of the operation. Results: Men predominate over women (41/17), the age of patients is usually high (> 40 years). The main clinical symptom is headache (42/58), some cases have vague symptoms such as cognitive impairment, memory impairment. The tumor is usually located in the white matter area, the gray matter area, the size is usually small (<3cm), has diffuse properties and low edema level. Tumors with common pathology are lymphoma and glioma. The length of hospital stay after surgery averages 5.7 days, 3 cases of postoperative cerebral edema complication, patients have good treatment results: 32/58. Conclusion: The brain biopsy application neuro-navigation system is a safe method with a short hospital stay.
