A musician Christian Nolen hit the right note with surgeons — by strumming his guitar while they operated to remove a brain tumour.
The doctors needed to monitor his dexterity as the tumour was near a part of the brain that controls hand movement.,
Nolen remained awake at the Sylvester Comprehensive Cancer Center in Miami, Florida, USA, to use his fingers.
Playing his instrument was the best way to do that.
Lead surgeon Dr Ricardo Komotar explained:” Christian has a primary brain tumour. It’s called a glioma. It was in a difficult location.
“ It was involving what’s called the hand/motor area, the part of the brain that controls hand function.
“Without treatment this tumour would have grown into that hand area and he would have lost the ability eventually to use that hand.
“The only way to safely remove that tumour is via an awake craniotomy.
“ Christian’s recovery has been remarkable. He went home better than he was before the surgery”

Dominic Matteo: 'Basically, I played my whole football career with a brain tumour'
Former Liverpool and Leeds player Dominic Matteo on losing his memory, hitting ‘rock bottom' with a gambling addiction and his road to recovery.
Matteo, 49, is sitting with Jess reflecting on his recovery from November 2019 surgery on a cancerous brain tumour. The day their lives changed forever began relatively calmly. Matteo had experienced a headache here, a bout of sickness there, but it was all easily attributable to other sources.
His GP had referred him for an MRI scan.
Matteo the footballer had had many scans. "Usually, they take a while, but I was in for what felt like a minute," he says. "They must have seen something straight away." He was not allowed to leave hospital that Monday night. By Wednesday, he was in a wheelchair, his vision blurred and his face distorted.
Dominic Matteo photopraphed at his home near Halifax in West Yorkshire. Dominic Matteo is a Scotish former professional footballer who played as a defender and midfielder in a 17-year professional career from 1992 to 2009. Matteo played for Liverpool, Sunderland, Leeds United, Blackburn Rovers and Stoke City. In November 2019, Matteo underwent surgery on a brain tumour, and was declared fully recovered in April the following year.

Dominic Matteo: 'Basically, I played my whole football career with a brain tumour'
Former Liverpool and Leeds player Dominic Matteo on losing his memory, hitting ‘rock bottom' with a gambling addiction and his road to recovery.
Matteo, 49, is sitting with Jess reflecting on his recovery from November 2019 surgery on a cancerous brain tumour. The day their lives changed forever began relatively calmly. Matteo had experienced a headache here, a bout of sickness there, but it was all easily attributable to other sources.
His GP had referred him for an MRI scan.
Matteo the footballer had had many scans. "Usually, they take a while, but I was in for what felt like a minute," he says. "They must have seen something straight away." He was not allowed to leave hospital that Monday night. By Wednesday, he was in a wheelchair, his vision blurred and his face distorted.
Dominic Matteo and his wife Jessica photographed at their home near Halifax in West Yorkshire. Dominic Matteo is a Scotish former professional footballer who played as a defender and midfielder in a 17-year professional career from 1992 to 2009. Matteo played for Liverpool, Sunderland, Leeds United, Blackburn Rovers and Stoke City. In November 2019, Matteo underwent surgery on a brain tumour, and was declared fully recovered in April the following year.
