Summary: International Kidney Cancer Symposium
Conclusions: Ideal ischemia time is 20-25 minutes or less improves short and long term renal function. >25 minutes carried 5 year risk of new onset stage 4 CKD No differences on GFR for cold vs. warm ischemia times Preoperative GFR and the percent of kidney preserved was a better predictor of post op GFR. No ischemia preserves renal function better than warm. Longer cold ischemia times were equivalent to shorter warm ischemia times. Quality and quantity of the remaining kidney is associated with ultimate renal function. Robotics in RCC Surgery Gennady Bratslavsky, MD The opening question ...

Acute onset bilateral hearing loss in dorsomedial pontine hemorrhage: A Case report
We report herein a rare case of acute onset bilateral hearing loss caused by nontraumatic pontine hemorrhage. Pontine hemorrhage is often associated with disturbance of consciousness; however, care is required as latent communication disorder due to impaired hearing is possible regardless of the state of consciousness.

Late Diagnosis of Multiple Cerebral Aneurysms A Decade after Resection of Cardiac Myxoma
We report a case of delayed presentation of neurological manifestations in form of multiple intracranial aneurysms many years after treatment of a cardiac myxoma. Our patient, a 55-year-old right-handed female with a background history of hypertension, first presented at the age of 45 years with a sudden onset of right hemiplegia. A CT brain scan detected multiple infarcts in the territory of the left middle cerebral artery. Echocardiography revealed a cardiac myxoma for which she underwent immediate total surgical resection. Nearly 10 years after this diagnosis, she presented again with right-sided weakness and left ptosi...

Hemichorea in ketotic hyperglycemia with hyperdense striatum mimicking hemorrhagic transformation in a patient using apixaban.
CONCLUSION: Diabetic striatopathy is a rare but treatable disorder and should be considered in patients with poorly controlled diabetes who present with hemichorea. PMID: 33307650 [PubMed - as supplied by publisher]

Posterior reversible encephalopathy syndrome (PRES) in a patient with moyamoya disease: A case report
Conclusion: This report suggests that patients with MMD may be susceptible to PRES. It highlights the importance of considering PRES as a differential diagnosis while providing care to MMD patients with concurrent acute neurological symptoms and a prompt intervention contributes to a favorable clinical prognosis.

Basilar dolichoectasia with intermural hematoma accompanied by cerebral microbleeds and white matter hyperintensities: A case report
Rationale: The clinical manifestations of basilar dolichoectasia (BD) are variable. The diagnosis is based on imaging measurements. Digital subtraction angiography displays only the dilated vascular lumen and lacks visualization of the arterial wall. High-resolution Magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) can identify intramural hematoma; therefore, it may be more suitable for the imaging evaluation of BD. However, most of the existing literature pertaining to BD lacks vascular wall assessment. Patient concerns: A 65-year-old Chinese man perceived weakness of the left upper and lower limb, double vision, dizziness, nau...

Clinical presentation and assessment of older patients presenting with headache to emergency departments: A multicentre observational study
CONCLUSION: Older patients with headache had different clinical features to the younger cohort and were more likely to have a serious secondary cause of headache than younger adults. There should be a low threshold for investigation in older patients attending ED with non-traumatic headache.PMID:34570422 | DOI:10.1111/ajag.12999

Neurophysiological Examinations as Adjunctive Tool to Imaging Techniques in Spontaneous Intracerebral Hemorrhage: IRONHEART Study
Conclusion: Together with the clinical symptoms, the volume of bleeding, perihematomal edema (or their combined volume), and neurophysiological examinations like EEG and TMS play an important role in the neurological outcome of patients with ICH. This might affect the patients' rehabilitation plans in the future, since with the help of the examinations the subset of patients with potential for recovery could be identified.

Fat-to-muscle Ratio: A New Indicator for Coronary Artery Disease in Healthy Adults
Conclusion: In this study, a high FMR was significantly associated with CAC. A large-scale prospective study on the association with FMR and cardiovascular diseases is necessary to confirm this relationship.PMID:34790047 | PMC:PMC8579285 | DOI:10.7150/ijms.62871

Patient-Specific Computational Analysis of Hemodynamics in Adult Pulmonary Hypertension
Ann Biomed Eng. 2021 Nov 19. doi: 10.1007/s10439-021-02884-y. Online ahead of print.ABSTRACTPulmonary hypertension (PH) is a progressive disease characterized by elevated pressure and vascular resistance in the pulmonary arteries. Nearly 250,000 hospitalizations occur annually in the US with PH as the primary or secondary condition. A definitive diagnosis of PH requires right heart catheterization (RHC) in addition to a chest computed tomography, a walking test, and others. While RHC is the gold standard for diagnosing PH, it is invasive and posseses inherent risks and contraindications. In this work, we characterized the ...
