Meningiomas of the Cerebellopontine Angle: Tips and Pearls for Safe Surgical Resection.

Aim: To present our series of cerebellopontine angle (CPA) meningiomas, and to provide some innovative surgical steps for safe removal of these tumors.

Material And Methods: The clinical, radiological, and surgical characteristics of 32 patients with meningioma in the CPA were retrospectively analyzed. A statistical analysis was performed to determine the factors that affect the incidence of complication.

Evaluation of Tp-e interval, Tp-e/QT ratio and index of cardiac-electrophysiological balance in patients with tinnitus.

Background: Tinnitus is a common auditory symptom. Dysfunction in the autonomic nervous system (ANS) is an essential part of the etiopathogenesis of tinnitus. ANS regulates heart rate and heart rhythm and can lead to ventricular repolarization changes, which can cause malignant ventricular arrhythmias.

The Effects of Agomelatine on The Biochemical and Pathological Features of Cisplatin-Induced Peripheral Neuropathy: The First Experimental Study in Rats.

Aim: To evaluate the effects of agomelatine on the biochemical and pathological features of cisplatin-induced peripheral neuropathy.

Material And Methods: This study included a total of 30 male Wistar albino rats that weighed 285â€"300 grams and were divided into three groups: healthy controls (HC, n=10); cisplatin group (CIS, n=10) and agomelatine plus cisplatin group (AC, n=10). The CIS group received only cisplatin (EbeweLiba, Turkey) at a dose of 2.

Management Strategies for Hydrocephalus in Alobar Holoprosencephaly: A Case Report and Discussion.

Holoprosencephaly is a rare congenital malformation resulting from an impaired midline division of the prosencephalon into distinct cerebral hemispheres. Hydrocephalus is a frequent problem among the few survivors with alobar holoprosencephaly (aHPE), its most severe form. The literature about neurosurgical management of hydrocephalus in this condition is limited and dispersed, and there are still some points that need to be resolved.

Percutaneous Kyphoplasty: Is Bilateral Approach Necessary?

Study Design: A multicenter retrospective study of patients who underwent unilateral and bilateral balloon kyphoplasty.

Objective: The aim of this study was to compare the radiographic and clinical results of unilateral and bilateral balloon kyphoplasty to treat osteoporotic vertebral compression fractures.

Summary Of Background Data: Percutaneous kyphoplasty has long been used as a successful method in the treatment of osteoporotic vertebral compression fractures.

Cement leakage and complication of liposarcoma spinal metastasis during vertebral augmentation procedure: a case report.

Background: Liposarcoma is a malignant tumor of soft tissue. Myxoid/round cell liposarcoma has a tendency to spread to extrapulmonary sites but the spine is an unusual location even for metastasis. Metastatic bone tumors in the spine are painful.

Epidural Hematoma Complication after Rapid Chronic Subdural Hematoma Evacuation: A Case Report.

Background: Chronic subdural hematoma generally occurs in the elderly. After chronic subdural hematoma evacuation surgery, the development of epidural hematoma is a very rare entity.

Case Report: We report the case of a 41-year-old man with an epidural hematoma complication after chronic subdural hematoma evacuation.
