Hemispherectomy is a recognized option in the treatment of symptomatic forms intractable focal epilepsy patients with developmental brain malformations and some acquired lesions one hemispheres. The prognosis for an outcome technique important terms indications surgical treatment.We described hemispherectomy its variants analyzed our own experience surgery 40 children. most common (27 cases) pathology was extended unilateral cortical dysplasia polymicro- or pachygyria consequences perinatal...
The study objective was to develop a rational approach for defining the extent of posterior decompression in children with Chiari 1 malformation.Posterior performed 76 malformation, under 18 years age, period between 2001 and 2015. Fifty two (68%) had syringomyelia. Extradural (EDD) 14 (18%) cases, extra-arachnoid duraplasty (EAD) 21 (28%) intra-arachnoid dissection foramen Magendie stenting 20 (26%) cases.Complications occurred 15 (20%) patients, one them being fatal (case fatality rate,...

One of the main manifestations posterior cranial fossa (PCF) tumors is development hydrocephalus (HC) symptoms that in most cases are reason for examination and diagnosis [1, 2]. According to literature, rate shunt surgery after removal PCF children's population 18-40% [3-9]. Hydrocephalus remaining tumor requiring further treatment called persistent hydrocephalus. The above figures based on outcomes children, which were obtained as early 1990s. Given these facts, we conducted a modern study...
The paper describes a new technology - application of resorbable plates and pins for securing laminotomy flap in children's neurosurgery. Four patients were operated on at our clinic. We describe detail surgical technique compare it with traditional fixation using ligatures.Работа посвящена применению новой технологии фиксация ламинотомированного лоскута резорбируемыми пластинами и пинами в детской нейрохирургической практике. В нашей клинике прооперированы 4 пациента. Подробно описана...
Introduction. Atypical teratoid/rhabdoid tumor (ATRT) of the central nervous system (CNS) belongs to embryonic group, occurs mainly in children under 3 years age and is characterized by an extremely aggressive clinical course unfavorable outcome. However, there not enough data about heterogeneity CNS ATRT role therapeutic prognostic factors patients 1 year 1–3 age. The aim this study was conduct a comparative evaluation treatment results with indicated groups. Materials methods. From 2008...
Chordoid glioma is a rare slow-growing tumor of the central nervous system. Available world experience includes no more than 200 cases (lesion third ventricle in absolute majority cases). Recognition and treatment chordoid are currently difficult problems due to small incidence this disease.To describe clinical manifestations surgical considering literature data own experience.There were 12 patients (6 men 6 women) with between 2004 2023 (10 lesion ventricle, 1 - lateral pineal region). Only...
Posterior cranial fossa tumors are the most common neuro-oncological pathology of childhood. More than half them located along midline, occupying cerebellar vermis and 4th ventricle cavity. Historically, these were operated on with patient in sitting position. This tendency has significantly changed last 30 years. For example, 95% all operations Japan now performed lying position; for US Europe, figures 80 60%, respectively. global switching to position is mainly associated a high risk...
Glioneuronal tumors (GNT) are usually found in children (less than 1.5% of all neoplasms the brain). With rare exceptions, they benign and manifest only by epilepsy, which is quite often resistant to treatment with AE drugs. Tumor removal helps cope epileptic seizures, however, a number issues regarding diagnosis surgical (interpretation morphological data classification, epileptogenesis topography epileptogenic zone, value intraoperative invasive EEG optimal volume resection) remain...

This sample selected from 554 intramedullary tumors 365 dysraphism (aged 2 months 72 years) who were by first author 2002-2017.Our findings confirm high efficacy low risk...
Introduction . The development of technologies for molecular genetic typing tumors the central nervous system (CNS) has significantly increased specificity traditional histological and immunohistochemical research methods. As a result, completely new variants have appeared, as well improved results treatment with long-term favorable prognosis. Thanks to biomarkers, among morphologically similar small-cell embryonic CNS tumors, extremely rare been identified: ETMR (embryonic tumor multiple...

Medulloblastomas of the WNT molecular group (MB-WNT) represent smallest MB and account for only 10 % total. This is characterized by a favorable prognosis. Given aggressive treatment regimens MB, reducing intensity therapy prognostically tumors seems justified. Purpose study – to demonstrate results children with MB-WNT determine impact on survival various prognostic factors. The included 85 patients under age 18 who received were followed up from 1993 2022. Median at diagnosis was years...
