In epilepsy, early diagnosis, accurate determination of epilepsy type, proper selection antiseizure medication, and monitoring are all essential. However, despite recent therapeutic advances conceptual reconsiderations in the classification management serious gaps still encountered day-to-day practice Egypt as well several other resource-limited countries. Premature mortality, poor quality life, socio-economic burden, cognitive problems, treatment outcomes, comorbidities major challenges...
Abstract Objective Epileptic patients with hypothalamic hamartoma (HH) frequently present cognitive impairments. Surgical techniques aiming at HH can be very efficient for epilepsy relief and improvement but are also demonstrated to carry a significant risk of additional reduction in memory function these already disabled patients. Gamma knife radiosurgery (GKS) offers an minimally invasive procedure. We evaluated the effect stereotactic on outcome. Methods designed prospective single‐center...
This is a retrospective-comparative-pilot study to investigate the role of vagal nerve stimulation (VNS) in improving cognitive functions pediatric age group with Drug resistant epilepsy (DRE). It was conducted from January 2018 February 2023. Children between 4-18 years were divided into two groups, "VNS group" and "best medical treatment (BMT) group". Follow up period 12 months. Demographic, clinical, etiological investigational data noted. Cognitive assessment using Modified Mini-Mental...
<b><i>Background:</i></b> Radiosurgery is performed with a diversity of instruments relying usually either on stereotactic frame or mask for patient head fixation. Comfort and safety efficacy the 2 systems have never been rigorously evaluated compared. <b><i>Material Method:</i></b> Between February 2016 January 2017, 58 patients presenting nonsmall cell lung cancer brain metastases treated by Gamma Knife radiosurgery (GKS) random use fixation...
Multidisciplinary pre-surgical evaluation is vital for epilepsy surgery decision and outcomes. Resective with assisted monitoring currently a standard treatment focal drug resistant (DRE). In resource-limited countries, lack of center huge challenge. We presented illustrated how to create multidisciplinary protocol settings in developing country outcome using brain mapping techniques ensuring satisfactory resection.We created multicentric incomplete but complementary units covering all...
Abstract BACKGROUND Vagal nerve stimulation (VNS) is an approved treatment for epilepsy and depression. Wrapping the helical electrodes around can prove technically challenging. However, a quick efficient method to slightly elevate highly facilitate this part of procedure. OBJECTIVE To provide useful surgical tips METHODS Based on experience more than 150 adult cases mainly (primary lead implant), authors share their technique experienced surgeons or newcomers field VNS with some tips. All...
Spinal extradural arachnoid cyst (SEAC) is a rare cause of spinal cord compression.Bifocal location thoracic and sacral SEACs rarely reported in the literature.We report case compression by SEAC associated with asymptomatic multiple Tarlov cysts (TC).The surgical management postoperative outcome patient are discussed.A 34-year-old woman was referred to hospital for acute pain history chronic long-standing back pain.She complained walking difficulties.Neurological examination demonstrated...
Deep brain stimulation of the anterior thalamic nucleus is one promising therapeutic options for epilepsy. Several studies are still under way to further strengthen and clarify mechanism, efficacy, complications. Contrary hardware-related operation-related events, stimulation-related adverse effect mild, target-dependent, adjustable. We present a case relapsing herpes simplex encephalitis (HSE) as newly reported potentially fatal following (ANT-DBS) accompanied by fever, confusion, cognitive...
Abstract Drop attacks are the most responsive seizure type to open callosotomy, however, surgical complications can worsen prognosis. Various less invasive techniques have been explored in an effort minimize risk. We present a patient who suffered from life‐threatening traumatizing drop whom previous anterior callosotomy and vagal nerve stimulation were unsatisfactory. Following posterior extension of by non‐invasive gamma knife surgery, rate declined 30 day once day, or every few days over...
Pilocytic astrocytoma has wide spectrum of age groups, clinical picture, anatomical location, and progression patterns. Rare unique unresectable locations in children worth analysis. Nine-year old child presented with severe hemiparesis, speech difficulties, dystonia due to giant mesial temporal pilocytic astrocytoma, mixed solid cystic. The rapidly progressive cyst was controlled by repeated aspiration through a stereotactically inserted Ommaya along the axis. One-year later, radiosurgery...
The use of surgery for treatment psychiatric conditions is a well-established strategy, especially in severe and resistant obsessive-compulsive disorder. Attractive anatomical functional targets stereotactic are reported some studies. Surgery our nation Arab world obscured hidden because several social cultural limitations, which should be overcome. We report here the first neurosurgery how we overcome such community limitation. This postoperative tremor.
Background: Lower cranial nerve palsies, or Collet-Sicard syndrome, can be caused by many different etiologies including head trauma, basilar occipital fractures, tumors, and interventions. Few reports describe presentations of this condition, we present here a case study to increase awareness add the variable spectrum. Case Description: A 56-year-old who had been hit while diving was admitted our department. On examination, he conscious without any signs lateralization but presented with...
Hypothalamic hamartomas (HHs) are disabling congenital lesions, responsible for gelastic seizures frequently associated with catastrophic epilepsies, epileptogenic encephalopathy, and cognitive psychiatric severe comorbidities. Stereotactic radiosurgery (SRS) is a well-established minimally invasive therapeutic approach.To assess whether pretherapeutic gray matter density (GMD) correlates seizure outcome.We used voxel-based morphometry at whole-brain level, as depicted on standard structural...
Abstract Background : Drug-resistant epilepsy (DRE) is very common in our daily clinical practice for which vagal nerve stimulation (VNS) used as a non-pharmacological therapeutic modality. VNS offered patients who are not amenable to resective surgery. There growing body of evidence suggesting that only improves seizure control but also modifies cognitive functions. Objective: This study aims at investigating this proposed dual effect it has great impact on the developing brain crucial,...
Abstract Background: Botulinum toxin type A (BTX-A) is a well-established therapeutic modality for the treatment of lower limb spasticity in children with cerebral palsy. There paucity evidence about its effectiveness and safety genetic disorders. Objective: To assess functional outcomes BTX-A injection Methods: We conducted retrospective chart review history, demographic data, comorbidities, neurological examination, neuroimaging findings all patients diagnosed disorders from December 2020...
OMEN with breast cancer particularly individuals diagnosed at ……..a relatively early age have an increased occurrence of osteoporosis.Aim present work is to apply Dual Energy X-ray Absorptiometry (DEXA) technique on patients who undergoing chemotherapy treatment for monitoring bone health and osteoporosis.DEXA considered as the most common accurate way, perform Bone Mineral Area Density (BMAD) scanning.DEXA scan Lumbar Spine (LS) Total Hip (TH) been done in study two groups women.First group...
