AbstractA 40-year-old bilingual man underwent removal of glioblastoma multiforme with intraoperative language mapping, mainly using the picture-naming and auditory responsive-naming tasks under cortical stimulation. Multiple language areas were identified, including one located in the middle of the inferior temporal cortex (ITC). Individual mapping for glioma patients must be performed because language areas might be located in various and unexpected regions, including the ITC.
