Microsurgical Anatomy of the Insular Region and Operculoinsular Association Fibers and its Neurosurgical Application
2019
Objective To analyze the three-dimensional relationships of the operculoinsular compartments, using standard hemispheric and white matter fiber dissection and review the anatomy of association fibers related to the operculoinsular compartments of the Sylvian fissure and the main white matter tracts located deep into the insula. The secondary aim of this study was to improve the knowledge on this complex region to safely address tumor, vascular, and epilepsy lesions with an integrated perspective of the topographic and white matter fiber anatomy using 2D and 3D photographs. Methods Six cadaveric hemispheres were dissected. Two were fixed with formalin and the arteries were injected with red …
Metástasis espinal por carcinoma de células de Merkel en paciente inmunodeprimido: caso clínico
2021
Resumen El carcinoma de celulas de Merkel es un tumor cutaneo maligno poco frecuente, originado a partir de las celulas neuroendocrinas de la epidermis, denominadas celulas de Merkel. Presenta un pronostico infausto cuando la enfermedad es diseminada. Dentro de las metastasis a distancia, la localizacion espinal es muy poco frecuente y no existe un consenso en cuanto a su manejo.
