We read with great interest their work on the use of fluorescein in peripheral nerve tumor surgery [1] that was not available at the time we drafted our article on a similar topic [2]. We first would like to point out the renowned expertise of the authors in the field of fluorescence-guided neurosurgical oncology [3] and the importance of their study regarding the comparatively high number of tumors analyzed and the variety of histologies. …
