The "Bevel drilling" for degenerative cervical myelopathy, a technical note with illustrative video
Neurochirurgie. 2023 Dec 30:101529. doi: 10.1016/j.neuchi.2023.101529. Online ahead of print.ABSTRACTDegenerative cervical myelopathy is a pathology frequently encounterd in the neurosurgical practice. Posterior ostophytes located at the posterior part of the vertebral endplate are frequently involved in the reduction of the cervical canal. We propose a description of the technique used in our department to drill this posterior part of the endplate safely with the help of modern instruments and microscope magnification.The bony resection being performed with diamond burr, we believe this technique less traumatic on the spi...

Customized anterior temporal augmentation for treating anterior temporal hollowing (ATH) by 3D-printed cranioplasty
CONCLUSIONS: The innovative PMMA cranial implants created by advanced customized 3D technology successfully managed ATH. This could be a therapeutic alternative for correcting ATH and can be routinely employed in clinical practice.PMID:38142616 | DOI:10.1016/j.neuchi.2023.101528 (Source: Neurochirurgie)

Introducing endoscopic assistance on routinary basis for vestibular schwannomas resection: A single centre acceptance analysis
CONCLUSIONS: Despite the known limitations of the study, the idea of investigating surgeons' impressions on the use of the endoscope could be another motif to explain why this instrument and its diffusion is limited despite its advantages in vestibular schwannoma surgery.PMID:38118265 | DOI:10.1016/j.neuchi.2023.101524 (Source: Neurochirurgie)
