BACKGROUND AND OBJECTIVES: Chronic subdural hematoma (CSDH) presents significant management challenges in neurosurgical practice, with recurrence being a notable postoperative consideration. This study aimed to evaluate the Relative Cortical Atrophy (RCA) Index as predictor of after CSDH surgery. METHODS: A retrospective analysis was conducted on 98 patients who underwent surgical evacuation for unilateral CSDH. The RCA calculated using pre- and cranial imaging, correlating it patient...
Rapid identification of the type and origin a stroke is crucial for prompt appropriate treatment, which can significantly influences patient outcomes. We report multidisciplinary management case involving 76-year-old man who presented with left-sided weakness mild dysarthria. Imaging revealed completely occluded right internal carotid artery. Despite multiple endovascular recanalization attempts, adequate flow could not be achieved, leading to decision perform an open thrombo-endarterectomy....
<title>Abstract</title> <bold>Background and Objectives</bold> Idiopathic normal pressure hydrocephalus (iNPH) is a neurodegenerative condition predominantly affecting the elderly population, for which ventriculoperitoneal (VP) shunt surgery standard treatment. Many iNPH patients need aspirin (ASA) treatment to prevent thromboembolic events since they have significant cardiovascular risks. Stopping ASA raises chance of these side effects. The effect perioperative administration on...
