Reliable intraoperative neuromonitoring aids microneurosurgical technique to optimize safe resection. The authors present a case of motor mapping\u2013guided resection of a recurrent brainstem pilocytic astrocytoma. They demonstrate reliable and continuous responses from the corticospinal tract at the level of the midbrain to the pons with dynamic subcortical motor mapping using a monopolar stimulating suction. Contralateral limb and ipsilateral face muscles can be simultaneously detected and tumor resected until a threshold of less than 1 mA, corresponding to 1 mm or less from the corticospinal tracts.<\/jats:p>\n                  <jats:p>\n                    The video can be found here:\n                    <jats:ext-link xmlns:xlink=\"http:\/\/www.w3.org\/1999\/xlink\" ext-link-type=\"uri\" xlink:href=\"https:\/\/stream.cadmore.media\/r10.3171\/2024.10.FOCVID24110\">https:\/\/stream.cadmore.media\/r10.3171\/2024.10.FOCVID24110<\/jats:ext-link>\n                  <\/jats:p>","DOI":"10.3171\/2024.10.focvid24110","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2025,1,1]],"date-time":"2025-01-01T01:13:49Z","timestamp":1735694029000},"page":"V2","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":1,"title":["Motor mapping\u2013guided resection of a brainstem recurrent pilocytic astrocytoma"],"prefix":"10.3171","volume":"12","author":[{"given":"Xiaopeng","family":"Guo","sequence":"first","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Neurosurgery, Brigham and Women\u2019s Hospital, Harvard Medical School, Boston, Massachusetts;"},{"name":"Department of Neurosurgery, Peking Union Medical College Hospital, Chinese Academy of Medical Sciences and Peking Union Medical College, Beijing, China; and"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Mitali","family":"Bose","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"SpecialtyCare Inc., Neuro Services, Brentwood, Tennessee"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Colin Patrick","family":"Galvin","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Neurosurgery, Brigham and Women\u2019s Hospital, Harvard Medical School, Boston, Massachusetts;"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Wenya Linda","family":"Bi","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Neurosurgery, Brigham and Women\u2019s Hospital, Harvard Medical School, Boston, Massachusetts;"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]}],"member":"1754","reference":[{"issue":"1","key":"b1","series-title":"J Neurosurg","first-page":"104","article-title":"Microsurgical management of midbrain gliomas: surgical results and long-term outcome in a large, single-surgeon, consecutive series","volume":"140","author":"Serra C","year":"2023","unstructured":"Serra C, T\u00fcre H, F\u0131rat Z,  Microsurgical management of midbrain gliomas: surgical results and long-term outcome in a large, single-surgeon, consecutive series.
