Cisternostomy for Traumatic Brain Injury: Pathophysiologic Mechanisms and Surgical Technical Notes
2016
Objective Traumatic brain injury (TBI) is one of the major challenges in health care, representing the third most frequent cause of death. Current optimal management is based on a progressive, target-driven approach combining both medical and surgical treatment strategies. Here we describe cisternostomy, an emerging surgical treatment for the treatment of TBI. Methods Cisternostomy is a novel technique that incorporates knowledge of skull base and microvascular surgery. By opening the brain cisterns to atmospheric pressure, the technique could decrease the intracranial pressure due to a backshift of the cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) from the swollen brain to the cisterns through the Virchow-Rob…
Intraparenchymal Brain Hemorrhage: "Birdlime" Effect Usefulness.
2018
The authors previously reported the novel transposition techniquefor microvascular decompression (MVD) using a tissue glue-coated collagen sponge (TachoSil Tissue Sealing Sheet; CSLBehring KK, Tokyo, Japan) soaked withfibrin glue (Tisseel 2-Component Fibrin Sealant, Vapor-Heated; Baxter Healthcare,Glendale, California, USA), termed the“birdlime”technique
Trigemināla neiralģija: ārstēšanas analīze pēc mikrovaskulāras dekompresijas ķirurģijas
2017
Ievads: Trigemināla neiralģija (TN) ir sindroms, kas izsauc ļoti stipras lēkmjveida sāpes, kas izstaro sejā un ko var raksturot kā durošus, līdzīgus elektriskai strāvai paraksizmus. Ir uzskatīts, ka TN etioloģijas pamatā ir hroniskais neirovaskulārais kontakts (t.s. neirovaskulārais konflikts) starp asinsvadu un nervu. Rezultātā asinsvads spiež uz nervu, veidojas nervu mielīna apvalka bojājums, pastāvīgs nervu šķiedru nociceptīvo receptoru kairinājums, kas izpaužas ar sāpēm. Visbiežāk patoloģiju diagnosticē diezgan vēli. Terapija sākumposmā ir Carbamazepine (CBZ), Un ja tas nav efektīvs, tad jādomā par operatīvo ārstēšanu. Ņemot vērā, ka vaskulārā kompresija ir visbiežākais iemesls primārai…
Characteristics and treatment of Multiple Sclerosis-related trigeminal neuralgia: An Italian multi-centre study
2019
Abstract Background The prevalence of trigeminal neuralgia (TN) in Multiple Sclerosis (MS) patients is higher than in the general population and its management can be particularly challenging. Our aim is to describe the characteristics, treatment and prognostic factors of MS-related TN in a retrospective multicentre study. Methods Neurologists members of the RIREMS group (Rising Researchers in MS) enrolled MS patients with a TN diagnosis and filled out a spreadsheet comprising their clinical data. Results Population consisted of 298 patients. First-choice preventive treatments were carbamazepine and oxcarbazepine. A surgical procedure was performed in 81 (30%) patients, most commonly gamma …
