Management of vascular causes of pulsatile tinnitus
Pulsatile tinnitus is a debilitating symptom affecting millions of Americans and can be a harbinger of hemorrhagic or ischemic stroke. Careful diagnostic evaluation of pulsatile tinnitus is critical in providing optimal care and guiding the appropriate treatment strategy. When a vascular cause of pulsatile tinnitus has been established, attention must be focused on the patient’s risk of hemorrhagic stroke, ischemic stroke, or blindness, as well as the risks of the available treatment options, in order to guide decision-making. Herein we review our approach to management of the vascular causes of pulsatile tinnitus an...

Spontaneous intracranial hypotension: clinical features in eight cases
Conclusions SIH is an under–recognised but fairly common disorder. Clinical examination is usually normal, and confirmation of the diagnosis requires investigations and treatment not used routinely in the management of headache. Investigations, including contrast–enhanced neuroimaging, are often normal in the acute or chronic phase. Clinical history taking skills are therefore paramount in recognising this disorder. Characteristic features include a new daily persistent headache in a cranio–cervical distribution, with often bizarre sounding additional symptoms. Our results challenge the prevailing notions...

The neuropsychiatry of tinnitus: a circuit-based approach to the causes and treatments available
In conclusion, a review of the literature demonstrates the varied neuropsychiatric manifestations of tinnitus. Imaging studies help to explain the mechanism of the association. However, more research is needed to elucidate the neurocircuitry underlying the association.

A rare but morbid neurosurgical target: petrous aneurysms and their endovascular management in the stent/flow diverter era
Conclusions Endovascular treatment of large or symptomatic petrous ICA aneurysms, in the era of flow diversion, is associated with excellent angiographic and clinical outcomes.
