Background: Acute subdural hematoma (ASDH) is a critical and often fatal condition, particularly in elderly patients receiving anticoagulant therapy. With a growing global aging population, the incidence of traumatic brain injuries, including ASDH, is projected to rise, presenting significant challenges in clinical management. This study evaluates the outcomes of surgically treated ASDH in patients aged 65 years and older, comparing those who received anticoagulant therapy with those who did not.

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.

Objective: The aim of this study was to evaluate the efficacy and safety of transorbital neuroendoscopic surgery (TONES) in the management of sphenoid wing meningiomas (SWMs) with cavernous sinus and orbital invasion.

Methods: The authors conducted a retrospective review of 32 patients with SWMs treated at Gazi University using TONES from October 2019 to May 2023. The study includes clinical applications to elucidate the endoscopic transorbital approach.
