BACKGROUND: Olfactory dysfunction (OD) is a disorder associated with traumatic brain injury (TBI), which is prevalent in up to 20% of patients suffering from TBI. Nevertheless, most studies focusing on the relationship between OD and TBIs do not differentiate...

Classification of neurovascular compression in glossopharyngeal neuralgia: Three-dimensional visualization of the glossopharyngeal nerve.

Surg Neurol Int. 2015 Dec 24;6:189. doi: 10.4103/2152-7806.172534. eCollection 2015.

BACKGROUND: We introduce a method of noninvasive topographical analysis of the neurovascular relationships of the glossopharyngeal nerve (CN IX) by three-dimensional (3D) visualization. Patients with glossopharyngeal neuralgia (GN) resulting from neurovascular compression (NVC) were studied.METHODS: 15 patients with GN...

C1 anterior arch preservation in transnasal odontoidectomy using three-dimensional endoscope: A case report.

BACKGROUND: The transoral ventral corridor is the most common approach used to reach the craniovertebral junction (CVJ). Over the last decade, many case reports have demonstrated the transnasal corridor to the odontoid peg represents a practicable route to remove...

Simulation and resident education in spinal neurosurgery.

Surgical neurology international

Bohm PE, Arnold PM.
PMID: 25745588
Surg Neurol Int. 2015 Feb 26;6:33. doi: 10.4103/2152-7806.152146. eCollection 2015.

BACKGROUND: A host of factors have contributed to the increasing use of simulation in neurosurgical resident education. Although the number of simulation-related publications has increased exponentially over the past two decades, no studies have specifically examined the role of...

Cranioplasty: Indications, procedures, and outcome - An institutional experience.

Surgical neurology international

Andrabi SM, Sarmast AH, Kirmani AR, Bhat AR.
PMID: 28607825
Surg Neurol Int. 2017 May 26;8:91. doi: 10.4103/sni.sni_45_17. eCollection 2017.

BACKGROUND: Cranioplasty, the repair of a skull vault defect by insertion of an object (bone or nonbiological materials such as metal or plastic plates), is a well-known procedure in modern neurosurgery. Brain protection and cosmetic aspects are the major...

Spinal case of the month with short perspective: How would you treat this L3-L4 synovial cyst?.

Surgical neurology international

Epstein NE.
PMID: 29576907
Surg Neurol Int. 2018 Mar 07;9:56. doi: 10.4103/sni.sni_27_18. eCollection 2018.

BACKGROUND: In this new section, Case of the Month with Short Perspective from Surgical Neurology International, we want to see how various spine surgeons would approach different spinal pathologies. In this first case, an elderly male presented with 3...

Suprasellar and third ventricular cavernous malformation: Lessons learned in differential diagnosis and surgical planning.

Surgical neurology international

Kulason KO, Schneider JR, Rahme R, Ratzon F, Anderson TA, Shatzkes DR, Filippi CG, Costantino PD, Langer DJ, Boockvar JA.
PMID: 29142773
Surg Neurol Int. 2017 Oct 13;8:251. doi: 10.4103/sni.sni_229_17. eCollection 2017.

BACKGROUND: While craniopharyngiomas (CPs) are the most common cystic suprasellar lesions in adults, cavernous malformations (CMs) only exceptionally occur in this location and are seldom considered in the differential diagnosis of such lesions. However, unlike CPs, suprasellar CMs are...

[Comparative analysis of Grade I vs Grade II intracranial Meningiomas in a retrospective series of 63 patients].

Do corticosteroids play a role in the management of traumatic brain injury?.

Surgical neurology international
