Laser interstitial thermal therapy using the Leksell Stereotactic System and a diagnostic MRI suite: how I do it

BACKGROUND: Laser interstitial thermal therapy (LITT) is a stereotactic neurosurgical procedure used to treat neoplastic and epileptogenic lesions in the brain. A variety of advanced technological instruments such as frameless navigation systems, robotics, and intraoperative MRI are often described...

description BACKGROUND: Laser interstitial thermal therapy (LITT) is a stereotactic neurosurgical procedure used to treat neoplastic and epileptogenic lesions in the brain. A variety of advanced technological instruments such as frameless navigation systems, robotics, and intraoperative MRI are often described in this context, although the surgical procedure can also be performed using a standard stereotactic setup and a diagnostic MRI suite. METHODS: We report on our experience and a surgical technique using a Leksell stereotactic frame and a diagnostic MRI suite to perform LITT. CONCLUSION: LITT can be safely performed using the Leksell frame and a diagnostic MRI suite, making the technique available even to neuro-oncology centers without advanced technological setup. SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: The online version contains supplementary material available at 10.1007/s00701-022-05461-x.
