Significance of endoscopic hematoma evacuation in elderly patients with spontaneous putaminal hemorrhage
CONCLUSION: The evacuation of deep-seated intracranial hematomas using the endoscope might improve functional outcomes and mortality, regardless of age.PMID:33880226 | PMC:PMC8053465 | DOI:10.25259/SNI_872_2020

Safety of apixaban for venous thromboembolic primary prophylaxis in patients with newly diagnosed malignant glioma
In this study, we treated ten patients with newly diagnosed MG with apixaban, 2.5  mg twice daily beginning 2–21 days after craniotomy and continuing for up to 6 months. Unacceptable toxicity was defined by ≥ grade 2 CNS or non-CNS hemorrhage, a thromboembolic event (i.e. stroke) or cardiovascular event requiring anticoagulation or anti-platelet therapy. There were no unacc eptable toxicities to report and no treatment-related adverse events. None of the patients on the study were diagnosed with a VTE while receiving apixaban. We conclude that apixaban can be given safely to patients with primary MG shortly after cra...

Dissociation between visuospatial neglect assessment tasks and its neuroanatomical substrates: a case report
We report a patient with a neoplasm occupying the right ventral post-central gyrus and anterior supramarginal gyrus. The patient was admitted preoperatively with dissociation on the performance of neglect tasks, showing clinical deficits in the line bisection task and clock drawing, but not on the cancelation task. The patient underwent an awake craniotomy for tumor excision. Intraoperative visuospatial mapping was employed by applying direct electrical stimulation (DES) to the supramarginal gyrus and the ventral branch of the superior longitudinal fasciculus (SLF III) during the line bisection task. According to our findi...

Hemorrhagic Stroke: Endoscopic Aspiration
Adv Tech Stand Neurosurg. 2022;44:97-119. doi: 10.1007/978-3-030-87649-4_5.ABSTRACTIntracerebral hemorrhage (ICH) and intraventricular hemorrhage (IVH) carry a very dismal prognosis. Several medical and surgical attempts have been made to reduce mortality and to improve neurological outcomes in survivors. Aggressive surgical treatment of ICH through craniotomy and microsurgical evacuation did not prove to be beneficial to these patients, compared to the best medical treatment. Similarly, the conventional treatment of IVH using an EVD is often effective in controlling ICP only initially, as it is very likely for the EVD to ...
