Evaluation of Resection Quality of Cerebral Metastases Using Fluorescence Guided Surgery: a Prospective Randomised Study

Few studies have evaluated the use of fluorescein sodium for the resection of brain tumours (especially glioblastomas) but also cerebral metastases. We therefore propose to evaluate the technique of fluorescence guided microsurgery (fluorescein sodium) compared to the conventional microsurgical technique in the resection of cerebral metastases in adults in order to specify, by a prospective and randomised study, the assistance provided by this technique in the quality of resection and the gain in terms of overall survival and local control of brain disease.
