ABSTRACT
Tissue diagnosis of brain tumours in eloquent is often done via needle biopsy but this method yields small samples that may not be representative of the whole tumour. The Neuroport® system enables a larger tumour biopsy to be taken via a burr hole. We report our experience on 5 cases October 2017 and June 2018. Brainlab® navigation was used. The diagnosis in all patients was made without worsening of their modified Rankin scale scores.
