Abstract Cauda equina syndrome (CES) is a rare and critical complication of lumbar disc herniation with reported incidence between 0.08 0.5%. Whether CES occurs because compression from or as surgery, surgical decompression remains the mainstay management CES. In cases partial CES, without motor symptoms, conservative may also be considered. We describe case following spinal stenosis in patient adjacent segment disease (ASD) which no postoperative radiological evidence residual iatrogenic...
Purpose Even though plate and screw designs in anterior cervical discectomy fusion (ACDF) have evolved to improve stability enhance patient outcomes, some argue that pre-tapping remained the best option. The purpose of this study is evaluate outcomes complications self-drilling, self-tapping screws their efficacy maintaining instrumentation position plated ACDFs. Methods In retrospective case series, patients who underwent ACDF with plating selfdrilling, from February 2021 May 2023 were...
INTRODUCTION: Total Intravenous Anesthesia (TIVA) has been widely adopted in neurosurgery. TIVA is favored for its ability to maintain a stable hemodynamic profile and control intracranial pressure. In addition, shown have minimal impact on neurophysiological monitoring. Despite these advantages, EEG-guided volatile anesthesia neurosurgery presents compelling alternative. Utilizing EEG, specifically, density spectral array (DSA), anesthetic delivery can be tailored individual physiological...
Foreign Body Reaction Mimicking Intracranial Abscess following the Use of Oxidized Regenerated Cellulose (SurgicelTM): Case Report and Literature Review
Study Design. Retrospective population-based database analysis from the Physician/Supplier Procedure Summary Medicare/Medicaid Dataset. Objective. To provide a comprehensive of trends in spinal orthosis utilization over 12-year period. Background Data. Widespread prescription persists, despite evidence suggesting equivocal efficacy many conditions. The on national level, including prescribing specialty data, has not been previously analyzed. Methods. Healthcare common procedure coding system...
Cerebral cavernous angiomas are vascular malformations characterized by large adjacent vessels. Usually, these lesions smaller than 3 cm, the mean age at presentation occurs between 20 and 40 years, neuroradiological findings well described, especially for magnetic resonance imaging, where "popcorn balls" appearance is due to presence of locules containing blood. Among these, giant very rare, particularly in adults. We collected clinical data from file hospital diagnostic archive. A...
A Rare Association between Meningioma and Two Intracranial Vascular Lesions: Case Report Review of Literature
Delayed Bilateral Symptomatic Vasospasm after Resection of a Skull Base Meningioma: Report on New Case and Literature Review
Background: The artery of Percheron (AoP) is a rare single thalamo-perforating branch posterior cerebral (PCA) that provides bilateral blood supply to paramedian thalami and rostral midbrain. occlusion rate AoP less than 0.6% it usually occurs due embolism or atherothrombosis only two cases reporting this complication after transsphenoidal endoscopic endonasal approach (EEA) have been described in literature.
Introduction: The cavernous sinus (CS) has always posed a challenge for neurosurgeons due to the significance of its anatomical structures and high rate complications associated with surgery in this region. anatomy area been extensively described. However, debate on optimal approach lesions involving CS remains open vibrant. In study, we have investigated surgical Lateral Supracerebellar Approach (LSA) accessing posterior wall using two different techniques: microsurgery endoscopy.
Dural arteriovenous fistula (DAVF) may be associated with trigeminal neuralgia. These complex malformations in the posterior fossa are known for their intricate arterial supply and retrograde venous drainage patterns. When trans-arterial endovascular treatment is unsuccessful, surgical clip ligation can successfully performed. In this case, a retrosigmoid keyhole craniotomy solely endoscopic visualization prove advantageous treating petrosal DAVF, including managing intraoperative rupture,...
Objective: Despite technological and microsurgical advancement, surgical resection of skull base meningiomas with complete motor function preservation still represents a troublesome issue in Neurosurgery. The impact intraoperative transcranial evoked potentials (t-MEPs) monitoring on the these tumors has not been entirely clarified so far. purpose this work is to examine if how t-MEPs may affect postoperative whether specific features lesions be predictive an alteration deficit.
