Abstract The fusiform gyrus is understood to be involved in the processing of high-order visual information, particularly related faces, bodies, and stimuli characterized by high spatial frequencies. A detailed understanding exact location nature associated white-tracts could significantly improve post-operative morbidity declining capacity. Through generalized q-sampling imaging (GQI) validated gross dissection as a direct anatomical method identifying white matter tracts, we have these...
ABSTRACT In this supplement, we build on work previously published under the Human Connectome Project. Specifically, show a comprehensive anatomic atlas of human cerebrum demonstrating all 180 distinct regions comprising cerebral cortex. The location, functional connectivity, and structural connectivity these are outlined, where possible discussion is included significance areas. part 6, specifically address relevant to temporal lobe.
There is growing evidence indicating the need to combine rehabilitation and regenerative medicine fields maximize functional recovery after spinal cord injury (SCI), but there are limited methods synergistically fields. Conductive biomaterials may enable synergistic combination of with electric stimulation (ES), which direct ES neurons enhance axon regeneration reorganization for better recovery; however, three major challenges in developing conductive biomaterials: (1) low conductivity...
Abstract Introduction The semantic network is an important mediator of language, enabling both speech production and the comprehension multimodal stimuli. A major challenge in field neurosurgery preventing deficits. Multiple cortical areas have been linked to processing, though knowledge connectivity has lacked anatomic specificity. Using attentional task‐based fMRI studies, we built a neuroanatomical model this network. Methods One hundred fifty‐five studies related categorization visual...
Introduction Spinal arachnoid cysts are commonly encountered throughout all age groups and often managed observantly, but a minority cause symptoms requiring intervention. These can be caused by congenital malformations, trauma, inflammation, or even occur spontaneously. A vast majority of in the spine extradural, about 10% intradural. One type intradural cyst occurs between two leaflets dura, described as an interdural cyst. Case Report This case report describes 47-year-old female with...
ABSTRACT In this supplement, we build on work previously published under the Human Connectome Project. Specifically, seek to show a comprehensive anatomic atlas of human cerebrum demonstrating all 180 distinct regions comprising cerebral cortex. The location, functional connectivity, and structural connectivity these are outlined, where possible discussion is included significance areas. part 8, specifically address relevant posterior cingulate cortex, medial parietal lobe, parieto-occipital sulcus.
Cryptococcus neoformans is a fungus that commonly invades the central nervous system. While choroid plexus, site of blood-cerebrospinal fluid barrier, serves as one potential entry point for pathogen, disease involvement plexus itself remains very rare manifestation infection. In cases in which blocks cerebrospinal flow, obstructive hydrocephalus may occur. Here we report case 63-year-old woman who presented with plexitis causing at foramen Monro. Endoscopic biopsy confirmed neoformans, and...
Spinal osteochondromas are rare, benign tumors arising from the cartilaginous elements of spine that may appear as solitary lesions versus multiple in patients with hereditary exostoses. Here, we present a 15-year-old female C3-C4 osteochondroma who presented progressive quadriparesis and hand contracture successfully managed laminectomy/posterior spinal fusion.A 3-month history secondary to magnetic resonance (MR) documented cervical osteochondroma. The MR imaging revealed osseous...

Abstract BACKGROUND Laser interstitial thermal therapy (LITT) is a growing technology to treat variety of brain lesions. It offers an alternative treatment options, such as open craniotomy and stereotactic radiosurgery. OBJECTIVE To analyze our experience using LITT for metastatic melanoma. METHODS This retrospective chart review the patients from institution. Our case series involves 5 who had previously failed radiation treatment. RESULTS have low complication rates short hospital stays....
ABSTRACT BACKGROUND The proximity of intraventricular or periventricular tumors to critical white matter structures, such as the fornix, poses an operative challenge. In order avoid significant neurological morbidity, deliberate selection surgical approach is necessary when planning resection in this region. We report our initial experience with fornix modeling adjunct standard navigational techniques across multiple pathologies. OBJECTIVE To feasibility using diffusion tensor imaging (DTI)...
Cerebral venous thrombosis (CVT) is a rare cause of stroke that preferentially affects reproductive aged females and patients with hereditary or acquired thrombotic risk factors. The superior sagittal sinus transverse are the two most common sites for thrombus formation.We report case CVT arising in very location, sphenoparietal sinus. A 32-year-old woman history factor V Leiden mutation multiple prior episodes thromboembolism presented new-onset seizure, headache, emesis. CT angiography...
Objective Primary repair of posteriorly located anterior skull base (ASB) dural defects following cranial trauma is made difficult by narrow operative corridors and adherent dura mater. Inadequate closure may result in continued cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) leak infectious sequelae. Here, we report surgical outcomes the use nonpenetrating titanium microclips as an adjunctive technique traumatic extending from olfactory groove to tuberculum sellae. Methods All patients who underwent a bifrontal...
The diagnosis and management of mixed intracranial germ cell tumors may be complicated by the diversity present within this tumor category. Mixed demonstrate variable natural histories which altered inclusion even most minute immature histological components. We report case an 18-year-old male who presented with a 3-month history progressive headache nausea leading to lethargy. Imaging revealed giant pineal region mass extending superiorly from roof fourth ventricle into lateral ventricle,...

ABSTRACT BACKGROUND AND PURPOSE Cerebral vasospasm in the setting of subarachnoid hemorrhage causes morbidity and mortality due to delayed cerebral ischemia permanent neurological deficits. Vasospasm treatment includes intra‐arterial injection a spasmolytic during angiography. To evaluate effectiveness, neurointerventionalists subjectively examine posttreatment angiogram determine change vessel diameter or increase microvascular perfusion. Flat‐detector computed tomography (FDCT) scanner has...
