Double fluorescence-guided surgery with 5-ALA and fluorescein sodium in grade 2 and grade 3 adult-type diffuse gliomas: retrospective analysis of 112 cases by Andrea Bianconi, Marta Bonada, Pietro Zeppa, Francesco Bruno, Pietro La Cava, Flavio Panico, Roberta Rudà, Antonio Melcarne, Diego Garbossa, Fabio Cofano

“…Conclusion: The results achieved in this study do not support the role of 5-ALA and FS to intraoperatively define the extent of resection, because of low fluorescence rates. Nevertheless, 5-ALA expression could be used to intraoperatively identify more aggressive foci and add useful prognostic information before the histological analysis. …”
