Correlation of cerebral microvascular circulation with vital signs in cerebral compression and the validity of three concepts: vasodilation, autoregulation, and terminal rise in arterial pressure
CONCLUSION: In cerebral compression, rising ICP obstructs cerebral arterial microvessels while simultaneously deteriorating vital signs. There is no evidence for dilatation of the arteries; only veins dilate, best-called venodilation. There is no evidence of autoregulation; what occurs is a cerebral compartmental syndrome. The terminal rise of arterial pressure is the hemodynamic result of cerebral circulation cessation, overloading the aorta. None of the concepts benefit the brain's nutrition.PMID:38628505 | PMC:PMC11021088 | DOI:10.25259/SNI_998_2023 (Source: Surgical Neurology International)

Spontaneous thrombosis and calcification of giant cavernous carotid artery aneurysm: A rare case and management insights
CONCLUSION: This case highlights the complex interplay between thrombosed giant aneurysms and affected vessels, with unique features such as cross-flow, calcification, and bone erosion. We advocate conservative management for stable cases, supported by literature, emphasizing vigilant follow-up. This expands the spectrum of aneurysm presentations and encourages further research into their dynamics.PMID:38628510 | PMC:PMC11021061 | DOI:10.25259/SNI_805_2023 (Source: Surgical Neurology International)

A case report of an unusual cerebral hydatid cyst
CONCLUSION: Intracranial hydatid cyst is an extremely rare condition and should always be considered a possible differential diagnosis in cases of cerebral cystic lesions. Hydrodissection is the preferred surgical method for resection; however, in atypical cases such as the one described here, meticulous dissection of the cyst capsule from the brain parenchyma may be successful with minimal risk of intraoperative rupture.PMID:38628511 | PMC:PMC11021106 | DOI:10.25259/SNI_70_2024 (Source: Surgical Neurology International)

Comparison of propofol and desflurane for postoperative neurocognitive function in patients with aneurysmal subarachnoid hemorrhage: A prospective randomized trial
CONCLUSION: The mean cognitive scores one month after surgery improved significantly with propofol compared with desflurane, but without clinical significance. Individual domain analysis demonstrated that orientation and memory scores were better preserved with propofol.PMID:38628512 | PMC:PMC11021062 | DOI:10.25259/SNI_788_2023 (Source: Surgical Neurology International)

Analysis of prognostic factors and the role of epilepsy in neurosurgical patients with brain metastases
CONCLUSION: Our study has highlighted prognostically favorable patient and tumor factors. Among those, a clinical onset with epileptic seizures can help identify brain metastasis hitherto silent. This could lead to immediate diagnostic-therapeutic interventions with more aggressive therapies after appropriate multidisciplinary evaluation.PMID:38628515 | PMC:PMC11021078 | DOI:10.25259/SNI_735_2023 (Source: Surgical Neurology International)
