The main aim of preparing this article was to review the preoperative diagnosis, algorithmic investigational methods, neurofunctional techniques, and microsurgical and intraoperative monitorization techniques in the treatment of eloquent area gliomas. The ideal treatment of eloquent area glioma requires working together with some related disciplines. It is necessary to keep in mind that this principle is the golden rule and also the first rule. These disciplines cover microneurosurgery, neurology, neuroanatomy, neurophysiology, neuroradiology, neuroophthalmology and neurorehabilitation. In these patients, quality of life and long survival can be provided by establishing the ideal treatment protocol via the correct diagnosis and comprehensive neuroanatomical knowledge.
