Although the goal of surgery for World Health Organization Grade II gliomas is maximal extent of resection, complete tumor removal is not always possible when the glioma involves eloquent areas. The authors propose a multistage surgical approach to highly crucial areas that are classically considered inoperable, enabling optimization of the extent of resection while avoiding permanent cognitive deficits due to induced functional reshaping in the interim between the 2 consecutive operations. To demonstrate such plasticity, the authors used a combination of sequential functional MR imaging and intraoperative electrical stimulation mapping before and during surgeries spaced by several years in 2 patients who each underwent 2 separate resections of Grade II gliomas located in the left dominant premotor area. During several years of follow-up after the first procedure, both patients had unremarkable examination results and normal socioprofessional lives. There was no malignant transformation. Based on their experience with these cases, the authors suggest that in cases of incomplete glioma removal, a second operation before anaplasia should be considered, made possible by brain reorganization after the first operation.
