Article Synopsis
  • The study investigates the transorbital approach (TO) for accessing vascular lesions, specifically the carotid and middle cerebral arteries, using cadaveric specimens to understand its feasibility for vascular clipping.
  • Dissection involved a stepwise TO method that included procedures like lateral orbital craniectomy and anterior clinoidectomy, allowing for exposure of various vascular segments and cranial nerves.
  • Findings suggest that the TO approach effectively exposes key artery segments, indicating its potential use in treating paraclinoid and posterior communicating aneurysms.

To analyze the efficacy and safety of surgery compared to radiosurgery (RS), combined or not with whole brain radiotherapy (WBRT), for localized metastatic brain disease. A systematic review with meta-analysis was conducted following the Preferred Reporting Items for Systematic Reviews and Meta-Analyses (PRISMA) 2020 guidelines. The inclusion criteria were limited to randomized controlled trials (RCTs) that compared surgery and RS for patients with up to 3 metastases (median diameter ≤ 4 cm).
