Article Synopsis
- The study focuses on the increase in cases of COVID-19 associated mucormycosis (CAM) during the second wave of COVID-19 in India, mainly affecting patients with diabetes.
- Conducted at Noble Hospital in Pune between April 2020 and August 2021, the research involved 59 CAM patients, revealing high mortality rates linked to factors like uncontrolled diabetes and high COVID-19 CT severity scores.
- Treatment success was achieved through surgical debridement and antifungal therapy, with 74.6% of patients recovering, highlighting the urgent need for appropriate steroid use in COVID-19 treatment to prevent complications like CAM.
Objective: We reviewed the clinical and radiological features of 73 cases of trigeminal neuromas treated with radical surgery.
Methods: The records for 73 patients with trigeminal neuromas who were surgically treated in the neurosurgery department of King Edward VII Memorial Hospital and Seth Gordhandas Sunderdas Medical College (Mumbai, India), between 1989 and 2001, were retrospectively analyzed.
