Prophylactic Antiepileptic Drug Use and Outcome in the Ethnic/Racial Variations of Intracerebral Hemorrhage Study Brief Reports
Conclusions— We found no evidence that AED use (predominantly levetiracetam) is independently associated with poor outcome. A prospective study is required to assess for a more modest effect of AED use on outcome after ICH.

Aneurysm location and clipping versus coiling for development of secondary normal-pressure hydrocephalus after aneurysmal subarachnoid hemorrhage: Japanese Stroke DataBank.
CONCLUSIONS Patients with low-grade SAH caused by a ruptured MCA aneurysm had a low risk for the development of sNPH. In contrast, patients with high-grade SAH caused by a ruptured ACA aneurysm had a higher risk for sNPH. Endovascular coiling might confer a lower risk of developing sNPH than microsurgical clipping.

O-017 a retrospective case review using the apollo™ system for endoscopic assisted, neuro-navigation guided evacuation of intracerebral hemorrhage
ConclusionPreliminary experience using the Apollo™ System in the evacuation of ICH shows promising results in rapidly reducing overall clot volume with a favorable safety profile and ICU stay compared with historical controls. Further study is required to determine the association between the reduction in clot volume and outcome measures such as length of hospital stay and clinical recovery.Abstract O-017 Figure 1DisclosuresR.

Emergency Management of Ischemic Stroke in Children
Opinion statement Children who present with acute neurological symptoms suggestive of a stroke need immediate clinical assessment and urgent neuroimaging to confirm diagnosis. Magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) is the investigation of first choice due to limited sensitivity of computed tomography (CT) for detection of ischaemia. Acute monitoring should include monitoring of blood pressure and body temperature, and neurological observations. Surveillance in a paediatric high dependency or intensive care unit and neurosurgical consultation are mandatory in children with large infarcts at risk of developing malignant ...

Stroke is not a treatment dilemma for early valve surgery in active infective endocarditis.
CONCLUSION: Surgery for AIE with cerebral septic embolisms can be performed safely, with good early and mid-term follow-up results. When urgent or emergent surgery for AIE is needed, neurologic complications should not be a reason for delay. PMID: 25799711 [PubMed - in process]

Is Prophylactic Anticoagulation for Deep Venous Thrombosis Common Practice After Intracerebral Hemorrhage? Clinical Sciences
Conclusions— Less than 20% of patients with ICH receive anticoagulation for deep venous thrombosis in the United States. When used, the time to initiation is <2 days in less than half of the patients. Further study should focus on understanding variations in practice and emphasize guideline-driven care.

Emergent intracranial surgical embolectomy in conjunction with carotid endarterectomy for acute internal carotid artery terminus embolic occlusion and tandem occlusion of the cervical carotid artery due to plaque rupture.
Abstract Acute internal carotid artery (ICA) terminus occlusion is associated with extremely poor functional outcomes or mortality, especially when it is caused by plaque rupture of the cervical ICA with engrafted thrombus that elongates and extends into the ICA terminus. The goal of this study was to evaluate the efficacy and safety of surgical embolectomy in conjunction with carotid endarterectomy (CEA) for acute ICA terminus occlusion associated with cervical plaque rupture resulting in tandem occlusion. A retrospective review of medical records was performed. Clinical and radiographic characteristics were eval...

Spontaneous Cerebellar Hemorrhage in a Patient Taking Apixaban
Conclusions Recent FDA approval of several novel oral anticoagulants for use in patients with atrial fibrillation has resulted in a significant number of patients formerly treated with warfarin being switched to these newer agents. There remains a lack of clear guidelines for the management of hemorrhagic complications. This case report describes one management strategy and highlights the paucity of current evidence to support critical clinical decisions.

Changes in intracranial pressure gradients between the cerebral hemispheres in patients with intracerebral hematomas in one cerebral hemisphere
Conclusions: BPP sensors should be applied to the injured cerebral hemisphere, because this becomes the source of increased ICP. Hematoma evacuation surgery effectively decreases ICP and eliminates pressure gradients between the two cerebral hemispheres, consequently enabling brain shift correction.

Orbital Cerebrospinal Fluid Accumulation After Complicated Pterional–Orbitozygomatic Craniotomy
We describe 2 patients who developed postoperative orbital cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) collection after orbitozygomatic pterional craniotomy. An 18-year-old woman underwent exploratory pterional–orbitozygomatic craniotomy. Five days postoperatively, after removal of a lumbar drain, proptosis and a compressive optic neuropathy developed. Computed tomography demonstrated a CSF collection contiguous with the craniotomy site. Resolution followed percutaneous aspiration and replacement of the lumbar drain. A 57-year-old woman underwent a pterional–orbitozygomatic craniotomy for removal of a left anterior clinoid meningioma, c...

Cn-15 * adverse effects of bevacizumab in brain tumor patients
CONCLUSION: The range of toxicities was similar to other reports. Interestingly, hypertension was the most common adverse effect and was often not treated. The high incidence of lymphocytopenia may have implications for combination with immunotherapies. These findings underscore the need to develop predictive models to identify patients at high risk for serious treatment-related toxicities.

Red blood cell transfusion in neurosurgical patients
Purpose of reviewAnemia is common in neurosurgical patients, and is associated with secondary brain injury. Although recent studies in critically ill patients have shifted practice toward more restrictive red blood cell (RBC) transfusion strategies, the evidence for restrictive versus liberal transfusion strategies in neurosurgical patients has been controversial. In this article, we review recent studies that highlight issues in RBC transfusion in neurosurgical patients. Recent findingsRecent observational, retrospective studies in patients with traumatic brain injury, subarachnoid hemorrhage, and intracranial hemorrhage ...

Subdural and Intracerebral Hemorrhage Caused by Spontaneous Bleeding in the Middle Meningeal Artery after Coil Embolization of a Cerebral Aneurysm
Nontraumatic acute subdural hemorrhage (SDH) with intracerebral hemorrhage (ICH) is rare and is usually caused by severe bleeding from aneurysms or arteriovenous fistulas. We encountered a very rare case of spontaneous bleeding from the middle meningeal artery (MMA), which caused hemorrhage in the temporal lobe and subdural space 2 weeks after coil embolization of an ipsilateral, unruptured internal cerebral artery aneurysm in the cavernous portion. At onset, the distribution of hematoma on a computed tomography scan led us to believe that the treated intracavernous aneurysm could bleed into the intradural space. Emergenc...
