Objectives: Digital platforms have become a major source of medical information worldwide. Among them, YouTube is one of the most frequently used for educational purposes, yet it often lacks formal content regulation. Consequently, the accuracy, reliability, and educational value of health-related videos remain uncertain, especially for complex procedures such as awake brain surgery involving language mapping.
