Endoscopic third ventriculostomy (ETV) is mostly safe but may have serious complications. Most of the complications are inherent to procedure's intra-axial nature. This study aimed explore an alternative route overcome issues with conventional ETV. The authors performed supraorbital, subfrontal extra-axial ETV (EAETV) via lamina terminalis.This prospective began in October 2021 and included patients obstructive triventricular hydrocephalus a Glasgow Coma Scale score 8 or more minimum...

Abstract Spinal tumors extending up to two levels can be removed using minimally invasive techniques. A microscope is traditionally used as a visualization tool with the tubular-retractor system. An exoscope newer optical improved digital resolution, panoramic view, and better ergonomics for surgery. 36-year-old who presented paraparesis was diagnosed intradural extramedullary tumor in T7-T8 region. complete resection possible tubular retractors exoscope. The patient recovered clinically. We...

The keyhole approach has been an emerging technique for cerebral aneurysm surgery in the past two decades. preoperative simulation and tailored-made each patient make feasible to clip many aneurysms via approach. In our study, we reviewed previous experiences of approach, related specifically anterior circulation aneurysm.The comprehensive literature review was performed on PubMed, Google Scholar, ScienceDirect, various neurosurgery neurology journals. Then, manuscript's reference list...

Endoscopic third ventriculostomy is a safe alternative to ventriculo-peritoneal shunt for certain cases of obstructive hydrocephalus. It has the advantage not leaving permanent foreign body in-situ, besides preventing over-drainage and reducing chances infection. A thorough knowledge endoscopic anatomy ventricles must performing various procedures.The aim this study was demonstrate educational purpose.ETV done using zero-degree LOTTA endoscope. Right Kocher's point usually chosen as entry...

ABSTRACT Objective: Type II odontoid fractures need surgical stabilization for disabling neck pain and instability. Anterior screw fixation is a well-known technique. However, certain patients require posterior fixation. We present our results experiences with nine cases managed by the Goel-Harms Materials Methods: This retrospective review of operated on between January 2019 December 2021 Their clinical profile was collected from case files. The radiological data were retrieved radiology...

Intracranial tuberculoma is an uncommon presentation of tuberculosis, and its occurrence in intraventricular location very rare. It usually confused with glioma, parasitic cyst, craniopharyngioma. Few case reports exist the literature on this entity. We report a at foramen Monro 7-year-old child review terms diagnostic dilemma.

A patient with multiple dolichoectasia of the intracranial cerebral artery was followed sequentially clinical and radiological progression disease in past 5 years. The treated stages years endovascular microsurgical clipping method. maximum diameter each major segment recorded compared follow-up year. size dolichoectatic observed spite surgical intervention. In review diagnostic criteria, etiopathogenesis treatment options have been discussed.

The literature contains several reports of herpes recrudescence after neurosurgery. We analyze our experience by vindicating or refuting the existing plausible hypotheses.

In this report, we describe a 6-month-old child having Type I split cord malformation (SCM), associated with meningomyelocele of one hemicord and lipomeningomyelocele other at the same level along II Chiari malformation. The classical embryological theories on neurulation defect do not clearly explain such complex entity level. new research genetic association posterior neuropore opens horizon genesis.

Effects of coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) pandemic lockdown on road traffic accidents (RTAs) in Chhattisgarh, India.Most neurosurgical emergencies are from brain and spine trauma. RTA is the leading cause such injuries. While nationwide was an extreme measure to control COVID pandemic, it influenced overall dynamics neurotrauma.This study aims assess impact retrospective included all patients with injuries who were admitted between January 17th May 31st, 2020. The population divided...

Abstract Background Although rare in small vestibular schwannomas, preoperative facial nerve paresis is often present giant schwannomas. Preserving function these cases remains a herculean task. This study evaluates the functions after complete tumor removal and whether involvement affects postoperative functional status. Methods retrospective from January 2014 to August 2021 excluded nongiant tumors (< 4 cm), neurofibromatosis type 2 cases, incomplete removals, redo surgeries, deaths,...

Abstract Lhermitte and Duclos first described the dysplastic gangliocytoma of cerebellum in 1920. In last 100 years, its clinical presentation, radiological features, pathological characteristics, association with Cowden syndrome have been well described. However, documentation surgical experiences is lagging. We here describe intraoperative experience during removal tumor, which could help operating surgeon plan mental makeup.

There are two main types of approaches for anterior communicating artery (AcomA) aneurysms, namely pterional approach, and an interhemispheric (IH) approach. Pterional approach is the most common circulation aneurysms. However, this cannot be used without resection gyrus rectus when aneurysm located high within IH fissure directed posterosuperiorly, which better handled with In article, we will describe tricks a case illustration.

Objective Visual impairment in vestibular schwannomas is an underreported entity. The plethora of literature focuses primarily on facial and hearing preservation. This study aims to describe our experience find the possible reasons for visual impairment. Materials Methods a retrospective observational study. We evaluated 114 patients with schwannoma, operated during 2015 2020. Eight parameters were studied-age, gender, maximum tumor size, hydrocephalus, economic status, duration symptoms,...
