The authors present a case of an orbital apex venous malformation that presented with an intermittent oculomotor nerve palsy over a 15-year period. Radiologically, the lesion presented as a well-circumscribed orbital mass with T2 hyperintensity and enhancement that could only be demonstrated on 2-hour delayed phase imaging. The venous malformation was initially steroid-responsive but eventually became refractory to medical treatment alone.

Objective: Radiological prediction of Ki-67 plays a crucial role in determining the clinical outcomes of meningioma patients. The aim of this review is to comprehensively review the literature to synthesize evidence on how accurate radiological prediction of the Ki-67 proliferation index is to determine the Ki-67 index's association with clinical outcomes of meningioma.

Materials And Methods: A narrative synthesis systematic review followed PRISMA guidelines.

Introduction: Pituitary neuroendocrine tumours (PitNETs) are common accounting for 10 to 25 % of all intracranial tumours. This project describes the feasibility of developing a novel membrane-based biomarker that could be used for fluorescent guided surgery. The aim was to catalogue the differential expression of membrane proteins between non-functional PitNETs and pituitary glands.
