Deep Intra-Axial Tumors

Selective deep-seated intra-axial tumors can be surgically resected with the use of a tubular retractor system that creates a controlled surgical corridor with minimal brain retraction and damage to surrounding brain tissue.

This controlled surgical corridor can be used for most intra-axial lesions, including lesions involving:

• Basal ganglia.

• Insular cortex.

• Lateral and/or third ventricle.

• Pineal region.

• Pulvinar/posterior thalamus.

Infiltrative lesions that preclude a safe resection.
