The supplemental motor area (SMA) is an eloquent region that is frequently a site for gliomas or the region is included in the resection trajectory to deeper lesions. METHODS Patient, tumor and outcome data were collected retrospectively from the UCSF tumor registry for patients who underwent surgical resection for newly diagnosed supratentorial diffuse glioma (WHO Grade II - IV) between 2010 and 2019 in the SMA region and the extent of SMA resection was determined by volumetric assessment. Tumors were registered to a standard brain atlas to create a frequency heat map of tumor volumes and resection cavities. RESULTS Although the volume of tumor within the SMA region did not correlate with the development of SMA syndrome, patients with SMA syndrome had larger resection cavities in the SMA region (25.4% SMA resection vs. 14.2% SMA resection, p = 0.039). The size of the resection cavity in the SMA region did not correlate with the severity of the SMA syndrome. Patients who developed SMA syndrome had cavities that were located more posteriorly in the SMA region and in the cingulate. When the frontal aslant tract (FAT) was preserved, 50% of patients developed SMA syndrome post-operatively; whereas 100% of patients who had disruption of the FAT during surgery developed SMA syndrome (p = 0.06). There was no difference in the overall survival for newly diagnosed glioblastoma patients with SMA syndrome compared to those without SMA syndrome (1.6 years vs. 3.0 years, p = 0.33). CONCLUSION For patients with SMA gliomas, larger resections and resections involving the posterior SMA region and posterior cingulate gyrus increased the likelihood of a post-operative SMA syndrome. Although SMA syndrome occurred in all cases where the FAT was resected, FAT preservation does not reliably avoid SMA syndrome post-operatively.
