Introduction Clinical case reports enrich medical literature by presenting rare issues. However, that do not adhere to a standard template often lack rigor and limit their usefulness in clinical guidance. Several guidelines for reporting have been structured, while further improvements are still required. The current guideline (CaReL) aims enhance the comprehensiveness of integrating detailed review. Methods In total, 56 researchers were selected based on specific publication criteria...
Abstract This systematic review examines the multifaceted strategies essential for establishing a successful neurosurgical practice. It highlights key factors, such as collaboration with colleagues, engagement referring physicians, participation in conferences, digital presence, community engagement, and provision of exemplary patient care. Each strategy offers distinct benefits challenges, which collectively contribute to growth sustainability Collaboration senior colleagues enhances...
Abstract Spontaneous intracranial hemorrhage (SICH) represents a critical medical condition that requires timely diagnosis and intervention due to its association with severe clinical outcomes. The coexistence of SICH alongside other forms bleeding, such as subdural hematoma (SDH) subarachnoid (SAH), adds complexity both presentation management strategies. This atypical presentation, particularly resemblance ruptures associated aneurysmal or arteriovenous malformations, underscores the...
OBJECTIVE Gamma Knife radiosurgery (GKRS) has been successfully used for the treatment of intracranial meningiomas given its steep dose gradients and high-dose conformality. However, skull base (SBMs) may pose significant risk to adjacent radiation-sensitive structures such as cranial nerves. Fractionated GKRS (fGKRS) decrease this risk, but until recently it not practical with traditional pin-based systems. This study reports authors’ experience in treating SBMs fGKRS, using a relocatable,...
Abstract Steroids are often utilized to manage patients with non-small cell lung cancer brain metastases (NSCLCBM). and elevated neutrophil-to-lymphocyte ratio (NLR) have been associated decreased overall survival (OS) in treated immune checkpoint inhibitors (ICI). We retrospectively investigated ICI after the diagnosis of NSCLCBM at a single tertiary care institution examing impact steroids NLR. Overall intracranial progression-free (PFS) were analyzed. 171 for included. Thirty-six received...
Despite improvements in surgical techniques, cranial nerve (CN) deficits remain the most frequent cause of disability following cavernous sinus (CS) surgery. The common tumor affecting CS is meningioma. They originate from lateral wall and have their blood supply meningohypophyseal trunk (MHT) inferolateral (ILT). Pituitary adenomas commonly invade through its medial receive form branches internal carotid artery (ICA) (superior inferior hypophyseal arteries). Some tumors may grow within...
OBJECTIVE Gamma Knife radiosurgery (GKRS) as monotherapy is an option for the treatment of large (≥ 2 cm) posterior fossa brain metastases (LPFMs). However, there concern regarding possible posttreatment increase in peritumoral edema (PTE) and associated compression fourth ventricle. This study evaluated effects safety GKRS on tumor PTE control LPFM. METHODS The authors performed a single-center retrospective review 49 patients with 51 LPFMs treated GKRS. Patients at least 1 clinical...
Aim: Adult pilocytic astrocytoma is a rare tumor. We aim to contribute understanding its clinical course and prognosis. Patients & methods: searched our database for patients older than 18 years with pathology-proven astrocytoma. Patients' data were analyzed. Results: Fifteen identified. The median age at diagnosis was 25 (range: 18–56). Tumors supratentorial in 47%. Gross-total near-total resections achieved 40%, sub-total resection One (7%) recurrence no mortality encountered during...
En-plaque-meningioma (EPM) is characterized by its flat growth along the bony contour. It accounts for 2-9% of all meningiomas. Very few grade II or III EPM cases were reported. Surgical resection sphenoid wing especially challenging as tumour tends to invade cavernous sinus, and/or orbit, and their neurovascular structures. Consequently, tumours in such locations have a higher rate recurrence. We report clinical course management patient suffering second recurrence EPM. The EPM, multiple...
and importance: Larsen syndrome is a rare genetic disorder that characterized by multiple joint dislocations, flat faces can also be referred to as "dish face", kyphoscoliosis, anomalies of the vertebrae. Patients with this frequently develop various spinal deformities, one them being kyphosis cervical spine. This deformity lead serious health manifestations if not surgically treated.We report case 6-month-old female, diagnosed syndrome. She presented progressive upper lower limbs...
The incidence of brain tumors has increased in elderly population overtime. Their eligibility to a major surgery remains questionable subject. This study evaluated prognostic factors and 30-days morbidity mortality octogenarian who underwent craniotomy for resection tumor.
BACKGROUND AND OBJECTIVES: An international, multicenter, retrospective study was conducted to evaluate the long-term clinical outcomes and tumor control rates after stereotactic radiosurgery (SRS) for trigeminal schwannoma. METHODS: Patient data (N = 309) were collected from 14 international centers. The median patient age 50 years (range 11-87 years). Sixty patients (19%) had prior resections. Abnormal facial sensation commonest complaint (49%). anatomic locations root 40), ganglion 141),...
and Importance: Adult Pilocytic Astrocytomas (APA) are infrequent low grade tumors. While supratentorial APA is considered rare, insular extremely rare. We present a case of pure along with surgical outcomes. Tractography functional MRI were obtained pre-operatively. The patient underwent neuro-navigation guided microsurgical resection sub-cortical white matter mapping, utilizing Intra-operative guidance. Sylvain fissure was opened to secure the M3 branches, near total achieved. in insula...
Superior cerebellar artery (SCA) aneurysms are rare. The management options not well defined. There is increasing role of endovascular treatment for all aneurysms, especially the posterior circulation. However in some situations (wide base, dysmorphic features) coiling feasible. surgical these has its own distinct complexity and requires careful planning. classic pterional or subtemporal approaches had limitation proper visualization neurovascular anatomy. In this video, we describe...
Myxoid liposarcoma (MLS) is a rare malignant soft-tissue neoplasm in which brain metastasis still considered rare. We present case of MLS and review the literature.A 24-year-old male patient presented with headache, decreased level consciousness vomiting. He was treated for distal right thigh 2-years ago. Imaging studies showed left frontal intracranial mass. The underwent surgical resection followed by stereotactic radiosurgery. histopathological study revealed metastatic myxoid/roundcell...
Abstract INTRODUCTION Two-staged stereotactic radiosurgery (2-SSRS) delivers a high radiation dose to large (≥2 cm) brain metastases achieve improved tumor control. However, treating posterior fossa (LPFM) with SRS is challenging because of the potential risk increased peritumoral edema (PTE) and compression stem and/or obstructive hydrocephalus fourth ventricle (4V). METHODS 21 patients (22 LPFM) treated 2-SSRS were retrospectively reviewed. Volumetric analysis for tumor, PTE, 4V volume was...
