OBJECTIVE In this study, the authors sought to define differences in incidence of delayed cerebral ischemia (DCI) between patients treated with dapsone and those placebo. Secondary objectives were clinical outcome at discharge 3 months brain infarction. METHODS A prospective, randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled study was performed included aneurysmal subarachnoid hemorrhage (SAH) within 5 days from ictus who candidates for aneurysm occlusion, had a Fisher grade or 4. Patients sulfa...

Introduction: In recent years, neurosurgery has predominantly relied on cadaveric dissection for surgical training, which is an excellent option training in anatomy and techniques but often lacks the simulation of real pathological scenarios such as complex skull base tumor resection procedures. Current technological advances virtual reality (VR) three-dimensional (3D) printing enhance planning, patient care, resident education brain surgery. Here, we demonstrate usefulness integration these...
The genetic substrate of severe hypertriglyceridemia (sHTG) in Latin America is insufficiently understood. To identify variants genes related to triglyceride (TG) metabolism among adults with sHTG from Colombia. In individuals plasma TG ≥ 880 mg/dL at least once their lifetime, we amplified and sequenced all exons intron/exon boundaries the LPL, APOC2, APOA5, GPIHBP1 LMF1. For each variant ascertained its location, zygosity, allelic frequency pathogenicity classification according American...
BACKGROUND AND OBJECTIVES: Awake minimally invasive transforaminal lumbar interbody fusion (MIS-TLIF) generates minimal surrounding tissue damage and has been shown to be a safe, time-effective, cost-reductive technique in single-level procedures. The purpose of this study was advocate for the utilization multilevel MIS-TLIF even challenging cases as it demonstrated positive outcomes. METHODS: Chart review conducted consecutive patients undergoing awake from 2020 2023. Various demographic,...
Neurenteric cysts (NCs) are rare benign endodermal lesions of the central nervous system (CNS), most commonly found in spinal cord. Intracranial rare, among which posterior fossa appears to be predominant location. We present a case 60-year-old man who presented with suddenly decreased level consciousness. After series radiological studies were done, multilobulated cystic lesion right was observed. Surgical resection performed and based on its histopathological characteristics, NC diagnosis...
Cerebral arteriovenous malformations (AVMs) are pathologic communications between veins and arteries of the brain vasculature. Its spontaneous regression is rare, many factors have been described in effort to explain this phenomenon, including a hypercoagulable state.We present case unruptured AVM patient where thrombosis malformation was found, probably due prothrombotic state associated with multiple myeloma (MM).We aim contribute study rare presenting relationship caused by MM that has...
Collision tumors are rare neoplasms composed of two different types histological tissues in the same organ. The most frequent association with cerebral cavernous malformations (CCMs) meningiomas, gliomas, and gangliogliomas, while sellar collision is between pituitary adenoma (PA) craniopharyngiomas, still very few cases have been reported. We present case a 43-year-old woman who started months ago fall from her height followed by severe headache bilateral hemianopsia. An isointense,...
Hypothalamic cavernous malformation (HCM) is rare, and to our knowledge, there are only 28 cases reported in the literature. An 18-year-old male presented two years ago with a severe headache followed by right eye blindness. Following imaging studies, bleeding hypothalamic cavernoma was discovered together another incidental brain. We sustained diagnosis of cavernomatosis, conservative treatment indicated. A year later, he vomit; for this reason, patient underwent new MRI which showed...
Background: The intracranial migration of a ventriculoperitoneal shunt (VPS) has been previously described, it is very rare event, and the mechanisms this have not yet elucidated. Case Description: Newborn at 38 weeks gestation by cesarean section, with congenital hydrocephalus due to Dandy–Walker malformation that required right Frazier VPS placement. At 2-month follow-up, computed tomography skull showed cranial dysfunction. evaluation, there were signs systemic infection. External...
Hypophosphatasia (HPP) is a hereditary metabolic disease caused by mutations in the ALPL gene. Taking into account challenges found adequate management of patients with HPP, an interdisciplinary consensus experts (pediatric endocrinologists, pediatric nephrologists, orthopedists and clinical geneticists) was carried out, order to propose recommendations utility for diagnosis, treatment follow up Colombian HPP. These suggestions are made context different types presentations ages patients.
Abstract Objective : to determine diagnosis value of a new LHRH test for or precocious puberty (PP) correlated with clinical and paraclinical pubertal changes. Methods:79 girls under age 10 years old were referred our laboratory went thought physical exam bone /pelvic US review classify them clinically in probably PP unlikely PP. A was performed measurement at least 3 times including baseline gonadotrophins (LH / FSH) estradiol 0-24 hours after dose 100 mcg/m2 (max mcg) Triptorelin Pamoate....
Association between cerebral aneurysms and sellar tumors has been previously reported. Rupture of anterior circulation during a transsphenoidal surgery causing massive subarachnoid hemorrhage (SAH) is uncommon, but rupture posterior aneurysm an infrequent event. We present three cases SAH secondary to undetected treat tumor. The common factor in these was the adverse outcome despite treatment. fatal seen all questions whether include (magnetic resonance) MR angiography or (computed...
Encephaloceles are congenital malformations of the neural tube, mostly located in occipital region Western world. Its presence is related to many complications, among which cognitive impairment and death most important. The diagnosis usually made prenatal period, but sometimes due poor control, this not feasible. Surgery required as early possible prevent further damage. Sometimes we can face complications procedure, such wound dehiscence, has been aim work. Many different types treatments...
