我们报告了一例左额叶下胶质瘤患者，其语言功能磁共振成像（fMRI）范式产生右侧布洛卡区和左侧韦尼克区激活，我们提出肿瘤侵袭左额叶盖导致皮层重组和布洛卡区半球间转移。本病例强调术前功能磁共振成像在评估肿瘤附近雄辩皮质位置和指导神经外科决策中的重要性。索引术语：布洛卡区功能性fmri胶质瘤。
We report a case of a patient with a left inferior frontal glioma in whom language functional magnetic resonance imaging (fMRI) paradigms produced activation of Broca's area on the right and Wernicke's area on the left, We propose that tumor invasion of the left frontal operculum led to cortical reorganization and interhemispheric transfer of Broca's area. This case emphasizes the importance of preoperative fMRI in assessing the location of eloquent cortices adjacent to a tumor and in guiding neurosurgical decision-making. Index Terms: Broca's area-Functional fMRI-Glioma.
