INTRODUCTION: Connectomics-guided brain tumor resection has emerged as a novel tool in the neurosurgeon's armamentarium. Leveraging functional-structural imaging, this approach enables identification of canonical and non-canonical networks vulnerable to pathology therapeutic interventions. Such insights facilitate customized surgical planning, optimizing lesions situated within or around eloquent areas augment oncological functional outcomes. METHODS: The involves integrating connectomic...
In Brief Study Design. A retrospective analysis of a case series was performed. Objective. To describe novel technique to monitor femoral nerve function by analyzing the saphenous somatosensory evoked potential (SSEP) during transpsoas surgical exposures lumbar spine. Summary Background Data. During direct lateral approaches spine, electromyography monitoring is frequently advocated; however, sensory and motor neurological complications are still being reported. Femoral injury remains feared...
Subcortical stimulation (SCS) is the gold standard neuromonitoring technique for intraoperative identification of descending white matter tracts. Dynamic SCS confers several advantages over more commonly used static devices; however, current commercially available devices dynamic have not been widely adopted.We fashioned a device using stainless-steel suction and materials assessed its efficacy in series 14 patients with brain tumors. The was to provide continuous during tumor resection....
Intraoperative neurophysiological monitoring plays a pivotal role in modern neurosurgery, aiding real-time assessment of eloquent neural structures to mitigate iatrogenic injury. This study represents the largest retrospective series date corticospinal tract integrity during intracranial surgery with transcranial motor-evoked potentials (TCMEPs), focusing on influence demographic factors, comorbidities, and preoperative motor deficits reliability intraoperative monitoring. While impact...
Purpose: Direct-wave (D-wave) neuromonitoring is a direct measure of corticospinal tract integrity that detects potential injury during spinal cord surgery. Epidural placement electrodes used for D-wave measurements can result in high electrical impedances resulting substantial signal noise compromise interpretation. Subdural electrode may offer solution. Methods: Medical records consecutive patients with epidural and subdural monitoring were reviewed. Demographic clinical information...
Bowel and bladder function are at risk during tumor resection of the conus, cauda equina, nerve roots. This study demonstrates ability to acquire transcranial electrical motor evoked potentials (TCeMEPs) from urethral sphincter muscles (USMEPs) by utilizing a catheter with an embedded electrode. A retrospective analysis intraoperative neurophysiological monitoring (IONM) data nine intradural tumors, four tethered cord releases, two spinal stenosis procedures was performed (n = 15). The...
Transcranial motor evoked potential (TCMEP) and direct cortical (DCMEP) paradigms have historically been used contemporaneously or independently for supratentorial craniotomies. DCMEP provides focal stimulation to the surface, whereas TCMEP is more variable may be activating structures deeper than those at risk during a craniotomy. We present case report 65-year-old female who underwent craniotomy clipping of right-sided unruptured middle cerebral artery (MCA) aneurysm. recordings upper...
A novel intraoperative neurophysiological technique for testing the integrity of pedicle during screw fixation spinal deformity surgery is presented. The thoracic paraspinal muscles at appropriate level are used as electromyogram (EMG) pick-up direct current stimulation that level. This shown to give reliable and reproducible results. found produce more data than methods most commonly this time.
