Abstract

Awake craniotomy in tumor and epilepsy surgery or for the implantation of electrodes for deep brain stimulation requires specific anesthesiological strategies. Propofol allows for quick emergence and has little effect on the respiratory function of the usually spontaneously breathing patient. Pain control may be instituted by hemiscalp block for trepanation or local infiltration for deep brain electrode implantation. In addition, low dose remifentanil is recommended for trepanation (i.e. tumor or epilepsy surgery). The airway may be secured by an ordinary Magill tube placed transnasally with its tip underneath the epiglottis. To protect the patient against vomiting an adequate antiemetic prophylaxis is required.
