Early suturectomy with a rigid endoscope followed by orthotic cranial helmet therapy is an accepted treatment option for single-suture craniosynostosis. To the authors' knowledge, flexible endoscope-assisted suture release (FEASR) has not been previously described. Presented herein their experience FEASR of isolated sagittal craniosynostosis.A retrospective analysis health records patients who had undergone between March 2018 and December 2020 was performed. Patients under age 6 months...
Awake craniotomy is a useful surgical approach to identify and preserve eloquent areas during tumour resection, surgery for arteriovenous malformation resections resective epilepsy surgery. With decreasing age, child's ability cooperate mange an awake becomes increasingly relevant. Preoperative screening essential the child who can undergo procedure safely. Case Description. A 11-year-old female patient presented with in her right motor cortex, presumed be dysembryoplastic neuroepithelial...
ABSTRACT Epidermoid cysts are rare lesions of the central nervous system, representing 1-2% all intracranial tumours. These mass typically found in parasellar region or cerebellopontine angle. As far as we aware only 15 cases an intrinsic brainstem epidermoid have been reported pediatric population to date. We report a case which 8-year-old male patient with was misdiagnosed and treated diffuse pontine glioma (DIPG). The child subsequently referred our unit failing response treatment at...
Background: Traditionally, human coenurosis has been ascribed to Taenia multiceps while neurocysticercosis attributed solely solium infection. Historically, however, the identification and differentiation of cestodal infection was primarily based on inaccurate morphological criteria. With increasing availability molecular methods, accuracy larval cestode species improved, not typically associated with central nervous system (CNS) are now being identified as aetiological agents. Case report:...
