Atypical meningiomas (AMs) are that have a higher rate of recurrence than grade I meningioma. Due to the risk recurrence, adjuvant radiotherapy (RT) after resection AM has been employed. At our institution, some neurosurgeons employ RT on all primarily resected AMs, while others watchful waiting with serial imaging.To study effect newly AMs.A retrospective review AMs at institution from 1996 2018 was completed. Data patient demographics, radiographic findings, use RT, time follow-up, and...
Improving overall survival in recurrent glioblastoma remains a challenge, and drugs acting by unique mechanisms are urgently required. Ixazomib is an orally‑administered proteasome inhibitor used combination with lenalidomide dexamethasone to treat patients multiple myeloma who have received at least one prior therapy. However, ixazomib's ability reach brain tumors has not been studied during its development. The aim of the present study (ClinicalTrials.gov, NCT02630030) was establish...
BACKGROUND A bilateral infraoptic origin of the anterior cerebral arteries (ACAs) is a rare anatomical variant that can be encountered during skull base surgery. The ACAs arise from internal carotid artery (ICA) at level ophthalmic and course medially, traveling inferior to ipsilateral optic nerves. Herein, authors discuss different configurations variant, its prevalence, hypotheses leading variable configuration this anomaly. OBSERVATIONS 67-year-old woman presented with worsening dizziness...
Abstract Introduction Atypical meningiomas (AM) are that more aggressive than their grade-I counterparts and have a higher rate of recurrence. The effect adjuvant radiotherapy (ART) on AM the skull base is not defined. Methods A retrospective review all AM's primarily resected at our institution from 1996 to 2018 was completed. ART defined as (RT) occurred within 6 months initial resection, regardless Simpson's grade. Minimum time length follow-up after resection 2 years. Statistical...
Intradural metastatic tumors of the foramen magnum region are extremely rare tumors. We report a 73-year-old patient that presented with right hemiparesis and recent history prostate biopsy for an enlarged prostate. Imaging revealed anterolateral intradural mass compression medulla. A far lateral approach condyle preservation was used to resect mass. Pathological examination tumor as The had significant recovery motor function given adjuvant external beam radiation. At time last follow-up,...
In this illustrative video, the authors demonstrate resection of a superior vermian arteriovenous malformation (AVM) using endoscopic-assisted parieto-occipital interhemispheric precuneal transtentorial approach. Lateral positioning allows for gravity-assisted access to fissure without retractors. The trajectory is useful in patients who have steep tentorial angle and avoids manipulation occipital lobe visual cortex. addition, utilize an angled endoscope, which full inspection bed after AVM...
e14089 Background: Bevacizumab is a VEGF inhibitor currently utilized in its intravenous formulation to treat recurrent glioblastoma. has been demonstrated slow tumor growth and prolong progression free survival. Monoclonal antibodies are effective both subcutaneous (subq) IV formulations. Providing drugs for subq self-administration, akin insulin or heparin, not only empowers the patient their disease conveniently at home, but also diminishes burden placed upon support system. Methods:...

Introduction: World Health Organization (WHO) grade II meningioma, known as atypical meningioma (AM), are meningiomas that more aggressive than their I counterparts and have a resultant higher rate of recurrence. AM were thought to represent only 5% all meningiomas, however, due changes in WHO grading, they now compromise up 20 35% newly diagnosed meningiomas. Adjuvant radiotherapy (ART) after resection AM, regardless Simpson's grade, has been employed combat the recurrence observed this...
