[Thrombosed aneurysm of the internal carotid artery, complicated by the development of ischemic stroke followed by subarachnoid hemorrhage].

Thrombosed cerebral aneurysms can cause embolism of the distal cerebral arteries and manifest as the development of ischemic stroke or transient ischemic attack. As a rule, thromboembolic complications develop with giant and large aneurysms, but they are also possible with sizes less than 1 cm. In case of such complications, according to the standards of treatment of ischemic stroke, antithrombotic therapy is necessary, which is associated with the risk of rupture of the aneurysm.

Visualization of Brain Tumors with Infrared-Labeled Aptamers for Fluorescence-Guided Surgery.

Gliomas remain challenging brain tumors to treat due to their infiltrative nature. Accurately identifying tumor boundaries during surgery is crucial for successful resection. This study introduces an innovative intraoperative visualization method utilizing surgical fluorescence microscopy to precisely locate tumor cell dissemination.

[Use of invasive intracranial pressure monitoring in patients with severe traumatic brain injury].

Objective: To evaluate the effectiveness of the use of invasive intracranial pressure (ICP) monitoring on treatment outcomes in patients with severe traumatic brain injury (TBI).

Material And Methods: We analyzed 50 case histories of patients with severe TBI who received treatment in the Krasnoyarsk Regional Clinical Hospital for the period 2021-2022. Comparisons were made between patients with and without invasive intraventricular ICP monitoring.

[Idiopathic hypertrophic pachymeningitis].

The article presents a case of idiopathic hypertrophic pachymeningitis of a 61-year-old male patient with severe cephalgia and progressive neuropathy of the oculomotor nerves. The diagnosis was confirmed by MRI with gadolinium, which revealed thickening of the dura mater with accumulation of paramagnetic in the convexital parts of the frontal and temporal regions, as well as on the base of the skull and tentorium. During the use of pulse therapy with glucocorticosteroids (GCS) the symptoms regressed, but when the therapy was stopped, there was a relapse of ptosis and oculomotor abnormalities on the other side followed by a slower effect of GCS therapy.

[Russian study on brain aneurysm surgery: a continuation (RIHA II)].

Objective: To assess the main performance indicators of neurosurgical departments in surgical treatment of cerebral aneurysms in the Russian Federation.

Material And Methods: We analyzed 22 neurosurgical departments (19 regional and 3 federal hospitals) in 2017 and 2021. The study enrolled 6.
