Résumé
Awake craniotomy (AC) is a valuable technique for surgical interventions in eloquent areas, but its adoption in low- and middle-income countries faces challenges like limited infrastructure, trained personnel shortage, and inadequate funding. This scoping review explores AC techniques in Latin American countries, focusing on patient characteristics, tumor location, symptomatology, and outcomes. A scoping review followed PRISMA guidelines, searching five databases in English, Spanish, and Portuguese. We included 28 studies with 258 patients (mean age: 43, range: 11-92). Patterns in AC use in Latin America were analyzed. Most studies were from Brazil and Mexico (53.6%) and public institutions (70%). Low-grade gliomas were the most common lesions (55%), most of them located in the left hemisphere (52.3%) and frontal lobe (52.3%). Gross-total resection was achieved in 34.3% of cases. 62.9% used an Asleep-Awake-Asleep protocol, and 14.8% used Awake-Awake-Awake. The main complication was seizures (14.6%). Mean post-surgery discharge time was 68 h. Challenges included limited training, infrastructure, and instrumentation availability. Strategies discussed involve training in specialized centers, seeking sponsorships, applying for awards, and multidisciplinary collaborations with neuropsychology. Improved accessibility to resources, infrastructure, and adequate instrumentation is crucial for wider AC availability in Latin America. Despite disparities, AC implementation with proper training and teamwork yields favorable outcomes in resource-limited centers. Efforts should focus on addressing challenges and promoting equitable access to this valuable surgical technique in the region.

BACKGROUND AND OBJECTIVE
OBJECTIVE
Awake craniotomy (AC) is a valuable technique for surgical interventions in eloquent areas, but its adoption in low- and middle-income countries faces challenges like limited infrastructure, trained personnel shortage, and inadequate funding. This scoping review explores AC techniques in Latin American countries, focusing on patient characteristics, tumor location, symptomatology, and outcomes.
METHODS
METHODS
A scoping review followed PRISMA guidelines, searching five databases in English, Spanish, and Portuguese. We included 28 studies with 258 patients (mean age: 43, range: 11-92). Patterns in AC use in Latin America were analyzed.
RESULTS
RESULTS
Most studies were from Brazil and Mexico (53.6%) and public institutions (70%). Low-grade gliomas were the most common lesions (55%), most of them located in the left hemisphere (52.3%) and frontal lobe (52.3%). Gross-total resection was achieved in 34.3% of cases. 62.9% used an Asleep-Awake-Asleep protocol, and 14.8% used Awake-Awake-Awake. The main complication was seizures (14.6%). Mean post-surgery discharge time was 68 h. Challenges included limited training, infrastructure, and instrumentation availability. Strategies discussed involve training in specialized centers, seeking sponsorships, applying for awards, and multidisciplinary collaborations with neuropsychology.
CONCLUSION
CONCLUSIONS
Improved accessibility to resources, infrastructure, and adequate instrumentation is crucial for wider AC availability in Latin America. Despite disparities, AC implementation with proper training and teamwork yields favorable outcomes in resource-limited centers. Efforts should focus on addressing challenges and promoting equitable access to this valuable surgical technique in the region.
