The patient wore a standard surgical mask. Above and on the sides of the patient's head, a tent-shaped structure made of sterile drapes was constructed with the intent of limiting respiratory droplets spreading. The language testing was performed by means of picture naming tasks and reading of written phrases displayed on a slideshow presentation automatically looping on a laptop located in front of the patient. The surgery was uneventful with no surgical nor anesthesiological issues. In the postoperative period, the patient developed a slight dysphasia which resolved spontaneously within 24 h. The following days were uneventful and the patient was discharged on the seventh postoperative day. To date she remains neurologically intact. The histologic examination confirmed the metastatic nature of the lesion and the patient was sent to receive whole brain irradiation therapy.
