Neuro 1
A 46-year old professional clarinet player requires an awake craniotomy for a frontal glioma. The surgery is thought to be curative and they wish to minimise the impact on their capacity to play their instrument after the surgery. Their background is significant only for anxiety, which is managed with sertraline.

Neuro 2
You are the anaesthetist on call overnight at a tertiary hospital. You receive a call from your junior registrar asking you to come in to assist. The case is an endovascular clot retrieval for a 57-year old lady who is being transferred by ambulance from a peripheral centre after experiencing stroke-like symptoms about two hours ago. She recently returned from a trip to Europe and has a background of T2DM.
