Abstract
5-Aminolevulinic Acid (5-ALA) induced fluorescence is useful in guiding glioma resection. The extent of 5-ALA accumulation is beyond gadolinium contrast enhancement.1,2 Supratotal resection may be achieved, potentially granting patients with better survival. We present our experience on 5-ALA guided glioma resection in Chinese ethnics.
