Unravelling Low-Value Care Decision-Making: Residents' Perspectives on the Influence of Contextual Factors.

Background: Several initiatives have been developed to target low-value care (ie, waste) in decision-making with varying success. As such, decision-making is a complex process and context's influence on decisions concerning low-value care is limitedly explored. Hence, a more detailed understanding of residents' decision-making is needed to reduce future low-value care.

Delayed Cerebral Infarction After Aneurysmal Subarachnoid Hemorrhage: Location, Distribution Patterns, Infarct Load, and Effect on Outcome.

Background And Objectives: Delayed cerebral ischemia (DCI) is one of the main contributing factors to poor clinical outcome after aneurysmal subarachnoid hemorrhage (SAH). Unsuccessful treatment can cause irreversible brain injury in the form of DCI-related infarction. We aimed to assess the association between the location, distribution, and size of DCI-related infarction in relation to clinical outcome.

3D exoscopic versus microscopic superficial temporal artery to middle cerebral artery bypass surgery for moyamoya disease - a comparative series.

Purpose: Superficial temporal artery to middle cerebral artery (STA-MCA) direct bypass surgery is the most common surgical procedure to treat moyamoya disease (MMD). Here, we aim to compare the performance of the 3D exoscope in bypass surgery with the gold standard operative microscope.

Methods: All direct STA-MCA bypass procedures performed at a single university hospital for MMD between 2015 and 2023 were considered for inclusion.

Cerebral tumor with hemi-dural enhancement as unique presentation of multiple myeloma: A case report.

Introduction: Intracranial multiple myeloma (MM) is a rare manifestation of MM, a malignant plasma cell disorder that primarily affects bone marrow. Dural involvement in MM is even rarer and can manifest as a dural mass. We present a case of MM presenting as an intracranial dural tumor with primary hemi-dural involvement.
