Abstract
The newly identified frontal aslant tract (FAT) that connects the posterior Broca's area to the supplementary motor area is known to be involved in speech and language functions. We successfully intraoperatively monitored FAT using cortico-cortical evoked potentials generated by single-pulse electrical cortical stimulation in a patient with oligodendroglioma.
