Re-recurrence of intracranial aneurysm with proximal vascular stenosis after primary clipping and secondary endovascular embolization: A case report and literature review
It was known that a small number of patients could have intracranial aneurysm recurrences after either surgical clipping or endovascular embolization treatment. However, early recurrence within one month after the treatment and re-recurrence was rarely reported before. (Source: World Neurosurgery)

Management of Choroid plexus tumors in infants and young children up to 4 years of age: An institutional experience
Choroid plexus tumors (CPT) are rare tumors characterized by papillary and intraventricular growth. The young age of presentation of such tumors, especially in infants as well as the lack of consensus on adjuvant therapy in case of aCPP and CPC create dilemma for the management of such tumors. We discuss the presentation, management, complications and outcome in 15 patients (children (Source: World Neurosurgery)

Residual cerebral aneurysms after microsurgical clipping: A new scale, an agreement study and a systematic review of the literature
The surgical repair of a cerebral aneurysm does not always lead to complete occlusion. A standardized, repeatable method of reporting results of surgical clipping would be desirable. Our purpose was to systematically review methods of classifying aneurysm remnants, provide a new scale with precise definitions of categories, and perform an agreement study to assess the variability in adjudicating remnants after aneurysm clipping.

Prognostic Discrepancy on Overall Survival Between Ambulatory and Non-ambulatory Patients with Metastatic Spinal Cord Compression (MSCC)
Contradictory results were reported regarding to the prognostic effect of ambulatory status in patients with metastatic spinal cord compression (MSCC). The aim of this study was to investigate whether ambulatory status is an significant predictor of overall survival in patients with MSCC, and to distinguish the differences of predictors between patients ambulatory and non-ambulatory pre-operation.

Beyond Science: Impact of Marital Status and Socio-Economic-Index on Outcomes of Spinal Cord Tumors, Analysis from A National Cancer Registry
The impact of marital-status and living arrangement on health through modified health behaviors and social networks has been well-established in the literature with many experts claiming a “protective” effect that married life confers to individuals. Herein, we sought to study the impact of marital and socio-economic-status (SES) on outcomes of spinal-cord tumors. (Source: World Neurosurgery)

Significance of Provocative Perfusion Computed Tomography for the Evaluation of Bow Hunter ’s Syndrome
We present a rare case of a patient with bilaterally patent VAs on neutral imaging and bila teral dynamic compression of VA with left head rotation. Provocation tests are critical towards understanding dynamic pathophysiology of BHS because normal neutral vascular imaging does not preclude diagnosis of BHS. (Source: World Neurosurgery)
