  • To report our experience and investigate frequencies of adverse events and functional status from the first 5 years of performing awake surgery for gliomas in a single-center population-based setting.We conducted a review of all patients with a glioma treated with awake surgery during the first 5 years following introduction of awake surgery at our center (February 2015 to February 2020). We assessed functional and radiological outcome, with adverse events classified according to the Landriel-Ibanez classification for neurosurgical complications, while neurological deficits were further subdivided into transient vs permanent. We sought to analyze our initial results and learning curve, as well as compare our results with literature.Forty-two patients were included. The median age was 38 years (range 18-66) and 13 (31%) were female. The indication for awake surgery was a presumed glioma in or near an eloquent area. The overall 30-day complication rate was 25 (59%), with 19 (45%) grade I complications, 3 (7%) grade II complications, and 3 (7%) grade III complications. Fifteen patients (36%) experienced transient neurological deficits, and 11 (26%) permanent neurological deficits. At 3-month follow-up, the Karnofsky Performance Score was 80 or higher for the entire cohort. The median extent of resection was 87%, with GTR achieved in 11 (26%). In search of potential learning curve difficulties, patients were divided into the 21 patients treated first (Early Group) versus the remaining 21 patients treated later (Late Group); no statistically significant difference in operating time, amount of tumor removed, or incidence of long-term postoperative neurological deficit was identified between groups. No awake surgery was aborted due to seizures. Comparison to the literature was limited by the diverse and unsystematic way in which previous studies have reported adverse events after awake craniotomy for gliomas.We provide a standardized report of adverse events and functional status following awake surgery for glioma during a single-center 5-year learning period, with similar rates of severe adverse events and functional outcome compared to literature without concerns of substantial learning curve difficulties. However, this comparison was flawed by non-standardized reporting of complications, highlighting a demand for more standardized reporting of adverse events after awake craniotomies.
