Abstract OBJECTIVE: To characterize admissions related to ventricular shunts in the year 2000 terms of diagnoses, procedures, socioeconomic status, and other data. METHODS: The Nationwide Inpatient Sample database (year 2000) was analyzed retrospectively. We reviewed 7.45 million patient for primary International Classification Diseases, 9th Revision, procedure codes 023 0243 (ventricular peritoneal, atrial, pleural, urinary systems initial placement, revision, removal); listing...
The extended frontal approach is a modification of the transbasal Derome. addition bilateral orbitofrontal or orbitofrontoethmoidal osteotomy improves exposure midline lesions anterior, middle, and posterior skull base, while minimizing need for lobe retraction. authors present 5-year experience with 49 patients operated on via approach. In seven patients, was used alone; in remaining 42, it combined other base approaches. Highly malignant tumors were removed en bloc, whereas benign...
Object Petroclival meningiomas are notoriously difficult lesions to manage surgically, given the critical neurovascular structures that intimately associated with tumors. In this paper, authors' aim was review their series of patients petroclival who underwent surgical treatment; emphasis placed on evaluating modes presentation, postoperative neurological outcome, complications, and recurrence rates. Methods Fifty treatment for meningiomas. The majority were women (72%). authors...
l-Glutamate is a major excitatory neurotransmitter that binds ionotropic and metabotropic glutamate receptors. Cerebral endothelial cells from many species have been shown to express several forms of receptors; however, human cerebral not either the N-methyl-D-aspartate (NMDA) receptor message or protein. This study provides evidence protein for NMDA Human cell monolayer electrical resistance changes in response agonists, antagonists, second blockers were tested. RT-PCR Western blot analysis...
The adhesion of both leukocytes and platelets to microvascular endothelial cells has been implicated in the pathogenesis ischemia/reperfusion (I/R) injury several vascular beds. objectives this study were (1) assess platelet-leukocyte-endothelial cell interactions induced cerebral microvasculature by middle artery occlusion (MCAO)/reperfusion, (2) define molecular determinants prothrombogenic inflammatory responses model focal I/R. MCAO was for 1 hour wild-type (WT) mice, WT mice treated...
Ventriculoperitoneal shunting is the most widely used neurosurgical procedure for management of hydrocephalus.To evaluate our long-term single-institution experience in adult hydrocephalus patients with ventriculoperitoneal shunts.Adult who underwent shunt placement from October 1990 to 2009 were included. Medical charts, operative reports, imaging studies, and clinical follow-up evaluations reviewed analyzed retrospectively outcome patients.A total 683 included study. The common etiologies...
Object Hydrocephalus is a notorious neurosurgical disease that carries the adage “once shunt always shunt.” This study was conducted to review treatment results of pediatric hydrocephalus. Methods Pediatric patients who underwent ventriculoperitoneal surgery over past 14 years were reviewed for revisions. Variables studied included age at placement, revision, or replacement; programmable shunts; infection; obstruction; and diagnosis (congenital, posthemorrhagic, craniospinal dysraphism,...
The mechanisms and outcomes in coronavirus disease (COVID-19)-associated stroke are unique from those of non-COVID-19 stroke.To describe the efficacy acute revascularization large vessel occlusion (LVO) setting COVID-19 an international cohort.We conducted multicenter retrospective study consecutively admitted patients with concomitant LVO across 50 comprehensive centers. Our control group constituted historical controls presenting receiving a mechanical thrombectomy between January 2018...
Big data has transformed into a trend phrase in healthcare and neurosurgery, becoming pervasive inescapable everyday life. The upsurge big applications is direct consequence of the drastic boom information technology as well growing number internet-connected devices called Internet Things healthcare. Compared with business, marketing, other sectors, are lagging due to lack technical knowledge among workers, technological limitations acquiring analyzing data, improper governance data. Despite...
While there are reports of acute ischemic stroke (AIS) in coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) patients, the overall incidence AIS and clinical characteristics large vessel occlusion (LVO) remain unclear.To attempt to establish COVID-19 patients an international cohort.A cross-sectional retrospective, multicenter study consecutive admitted with was undertaken from March 1 May 1, 2020 at 12 centers 4 countries. Out those centers, 9 all types strokes data were used calculate rate AIS. Three...
INTRODUCTION Insurance coverage is a critical determinant of access to care. Uninsured patients suffer poorer outcomes including increased risk morbidity/mortality. To reduce uninsurance among adults, the Affordable Care Act provisioned states option expand Medicaid eligibility. We hypothesized that with isolated traumatic brain injury (TBI) had more insurance and better after expansion as compared before. METHODS National data on trauma admissions were obtained from American College...
Abstract BACKGROUND: Ventriculoperitoneal shunting remains the most widely used neurosurgical procedure for management of hydrocephalus, albeit with many complications. OBJECTIVE: To review and assess long-term clinical outcome ventriculoperitoneal shunt surgery in adult transition patients pediatric-onset hydrocephalus. METHODS: Patients 17 years or older who underwent placement hydrocephalus during their pediatric (younger than years) were included. Medical charts, operative reports,...
<i>Background:</i> The majority of ventriculoperitoneal (VP) shunt malfunctions are due to proximal catheter failure. Ideal placement Ommaya reservoirs is desired avoid toxicity from intraparenchymal chemotherapy infusion. <i>Objective:</i> To determine whether stereotactic ventricular catheters decreases the rate reservoir complications and VP <i>Methods:</i> Under institutional review board approval, areview a prospectively collected database was...
OBJECTIVE Adult-onset hydrocephalus is not commonly discussed in the literature, especially regarding its demographic distribution. In contrast to pediatric hydrocephalus, which related a primary CSF pathway defect, development adults often secondary other pathologies. this study, authors investigated epidemiology of adult-onset as it pertains different etiologies and reference age, sex, race distributions. METHODS The retrospectively reviewed clinical notes 2001 patients with who presented...
