Abstract

Subdural grid monitoring (SDG) has the advantage to provide continuous coverage over a larger area of cortex, direct visualization of electrode location and functional mapping. However, SDG can cause direct irritation of the cortex or postoperative headaches due to cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) leakage. Epidural grid monitoring (EDG) without opening the dura is thought to reduce the possibility of these complications. We report our experience with EDG.
