– Intraoperative image of the Stria Terminalis: A – Preoperative Coronal T1Gad imaging showing an intrinsic infiltrative and expansive lesion centered to the left supplementary motor area with extension to the middle frontal gyrus, cingulate and corpus callosum; B – Postoperative Coronal T1Gad documenting complete resection of this lesion and showing the angle of view towards the contralateral ventricle (green arrow) where the stria terminalis was identified in the caudothalamic groove; C – Intraoperative view of the right stria terminalis (black arrow) in the caudothalamic groove separating the caudade nucleus (CN) and the Thalamus (T). We can also identify the caudate veins (number 1), lamina affixa (number 2) and the thalamostriate vein (number 3).
