Nonacute Subdural Hematoma Evacuation Using a Rigid Endoscopy System: A Clinical Study.

Aim: To determine the clinical relevance of a rigid endoscopy surgical method for subdural hematomas, as previously described in a cadaver study.

Material And Methods: Between May 2021 and September 2023, 21 patients underwent subdural hematoma drainage using a 0-degree rigid endoscope. Traumatic acute subdural hematomas were excluded.

A Novel Perspective to Gamma-Knife Radiosurgery for Solitary Meningiomas: Adaptability of Fast Imaging Employing Steady-State Acquisition/Constructive Interference in Steady-State Magnetic Resonance Imaging.

Aim: To compare T1-weighted contrast-enhanced (T1+C) with fast imaging employing steady-state acquisition (FIESTA) magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) sequences to protect healthy brain tissue during meningioma treatment with Gamma-Knife radiosurgery (GKRS).

Material And Methods: After reviewing the data of 54 patients with solitary meningioma who underwent GKRS between January 2020 and June 2022, demographic characteristics were noted, tumor volumes on T1+C and FIESTA MRI sequences were measured, and sequences were compared. The patients were then divided into two groups according to the presence of invasion to intracranial venous sinuses (groups 1 and 2, respectively).
