Article Synopsis
- This study focuses on the challenges of endoscopic management of pediatric hydrocephalus, particularly due to the unique anatomical structures of children's ventricles.
- It analyzed surgical cases from 84 children aged around 7.6 months, identifying common causes of hydrocephalus and noting significant variations and deformities in the ventricular anatomy in 83% of cases.
- The findings emphasize the importance of understanding these anatomical variations to enhance surgical safety, as they are often not evident in preoperative imaging.
Cystic degeneration of the fibrous dysplasia is a very rare clinical condition and may present with loss of vision when it involved the skull base. A 12-year-old female child presented with an enlargement of the skull. She was diagnosed as large skull base and skull vault tumor.
View Article and Find Full Text PDFAim: Traumatic intracranial aneurysm (TICA) is a rare vascular lesion with various etiologies and a high mortality rate when diagnosed late. In this study, we present our cases of TICA, which we treated with flow-diverter stents due to different etiological factors.
Methods: Clinical data were recorded for 8 patients: age, gender, etiological factors, aneurysm location, aneurysm type, rupture, main artery status, and postoperative complications.
Article Synopsis
- - Colloid cysts (CCs) are uncommon in the sellar-suprasellar region, making diagnosis challenging due to potential similar cystic lesions.
- A case study of a 33-year-old woman with recurrent headaches revealed a large sellar-suprasellar CC extending into nearby cisterns, which was unusual for this type of cyst.
- The cyst was successfully removed using an endoscopic transsphenoidal approach, leading to complete recovery and no signs of recurrence in follow-up MRI.
