<b>Introduction</b> Posterior midline laminectomy is associated with risks of postoperative instability, spinal deformity, extensive bilateral subperiosteal muscle stripping, partial or total facetectomy especially in foraminal tumor extension, increased cerebrospinal fluid leakage, and wound infection. Minimally invasive approaches the help a microscope endoscope using hemilaminectomy have been found to be safe effective. We report our initial experience 18 patients endoscopic technique....
OBJECTIVEEndoscope-assisted hemispherotomy (EH) has emerged as a good alternative option for hemispheric pathologies with drug-resistant epilepsy.METHODSThis was prospective observational study. Parameters measured included primary outcome measures (frequency, severity of seizures) and secondary outcomes (cognition, behavior, quality life). Blood loss, operating time, complications, hospital stay were also taken into account. A comparison made between the open (OH) endoscopic techniques...
Background: Practicing neuroendoscopic skills like hand-eye coordination is mandatory before embarking on actual surgeries. Synthetic models are able alternatives for cadavers and animals. Presently available in the literature either very costly or lack a feedback mechanism, which makes training difficult. Objective: We aimed to make basic low-cost model with mechanism. Methods Materials: An electronic circuit series was designed inside clay utensil test inadvertent contact of working...
The technique of distraction, compression, extension, and reduction (DCER) is effective to reduce, realign, relieve cranio-spinal compression through posterior only approach. Study included all patients with atlantoaxial dislocation basilar invagination (BI) occipitalized C1 arch. techniques Nurick grading, computed tomography scan study atlanto-dental interval, BI, hyper-lordosis, neck tilt. Sagittal inclination (SI), coronal (CI), cranio-cervical tilt, presence pseudo-joints, anomalous...
Abstract Background Twist drill evacuation, burr hole aspiration, mini-craniotomy, and craniotomy are some of the surgical methods to remove chronic subdural hematoma (CSDH). Endoscopic treatment was also recently found be useful. Methods We conducted a prospective study 72 hematomas in 68 patients. Computed tomography performed all cases. surgery CSDH Surgical procedure A 4-cm skin incision at most curved part skull with CSDH. mini-craniotomy or enlarged made. The inner outer table margin...
There is lack of uniformity about the preferred surgical treatment, role drain, and type drain among various surgeons in chronic subdural hematoma (CSDH). The present study aimed to evaluate subgaleal drain.This was a prospective 260 patients CSDH treated surgically. Burr-hole irrigation with without suction done 140 120 patients, respectively. Out 60 each were managed by single two burr holes. Pre- postoperative GCS recorded. Recurrent hematomas, secondary tumor, due intracranial...
Abstract Background In recent times, the supraorbital approach via eyebrow incision has gained tremendous popularity in targeting anterior skull base and few middle cranial fossa lesions, over more traditional pterional frontotemporal approaches. However, extremely narrow viewing angle through this requires frequent adjustments of operating table microscope for optimal visualization. Illumination such a small opening deep-seated location was another limiting factor. Keeping these problems...
Abstract Traditional endoscopic spine training using cadavers and animal models faces limitations due to availability ethical concerns, while existing synthetic are often too simplistic or expensive. There is a need for more accessible affordable solution. This study aims develop evaluate low-cost, indigenous electronic model surgeons in minimally invasive surgery. A Foley catheter wrapped with copper coil covered plastic cling film was used. placed through foam wooden spoon, which simulated...
Background: Proficiency in neuroendoscopic techniques is vital modern neurosurgery, especially with the rising prominence of endoscopic endonasal procedures. Traditional training methods face challenges due to cadaver scarcity and cost-prohibitive simulators. Objective: To explore feasibility using goat head carcasses for pituitary surgery. Methods: A prospective observational study was conducted at a tertiary care center from January 2024 April 2024. Fifty neurosurgeons practiced on models...
Intraoperative squash smear cytology is a useful diagnostic tool in case of CNS lesions. In resource poor countries where frozen section unavailable, the mainstay method giving rapid intraoperative diagnosis which helps Surgeons regarding extent excision. The current study aims to assess feasibility and accuracy evaluation tumors. Definitive confirmed by histopathological examination. This retrospective observational was carried out at Department Neuropathology. All patients diagnosed with...
Neurosurgery is a branch having tough learning curve. Residents generally get very less hands-on exposure for advanced procedures like neuroendoscopy. With the limited number of cadavers available and ethical issues associated with animal models, practice simulators are becoming able alternative. Most these costly. We tried to build indigenous inexpensive models that can help in developing most skills neuroendoscopy.Models were built hand-eye coordination, dexterity, instrument manipulation,...
additional procedures of drilling bone and fissure dissection could be avoided when endoscope is used.There are many advantages the in TN, such as improved visualization entire trigeminal nerve vascular culprits (1,6,12,16,28,59), which missed significant percentages patients by microscope (12,15,27,59).Improved without brain retraction a major advantage endoscopic surgery (15).The also helps better detection whether decompression complete (1,6,28,53,57).The can used sole procedure...
Background and Introduction: Endoscopic anterior cervical approach has several advantages compared to conventional discectomy fusion (ACDF). Objective: This video demonstrates a step-by-step procedure for endoscopic discectomy. Procedure: The patient is placed supine with the neck extended. A standard using about 3 cm skin incision made under "Easy Go" (Karl Storz, Tuttlingen, Germany) vision, uncinate process uncus are drilled. Only small portion of normal disc, posterior longitudinal...
Introduction Several different surgical techniques have been used in the treatment of patients with symptomatic Arnold-Chiari malformation type 1 (ACM-1) or without syrinx. Endoscope-assisted decompression posterior fossa has found to be safe and effective. We report our initial experience endoscopic management ACM-I. Material Methods This was a prospective study 15 patients. Pre- postoperative clinical status computed tomography magnetic resonance imaging findings were recorded....
BACKGROUND AND OBJECTIVES: Atlantoaxial dislocation (AAD) poses a complex surgical challenge. Surgical approaches vary for reducible and irreducible cases. Challenges persist in reducing the atlantodental interval, especially cases with oblique or vertical C1-C2 joints. The Rocker instrument (MJ Surgical), less-explored technique, seeks to simplify instrumentation, reduce complexity, enhance translation retroflection reduction of AAD. METHODS: This prospective observational study was...
