Vestibular schwannoma surgery in the ninth decade of life: a case series.

Article Synopsis
- This study evaluates the surgical outcomes of patients aged 80 and older who underwent surgery for large vestibular schwannomas (VS).
- Thirteen patients were examined, with most experiencing good facial function post-surgery and a low rate of serious complications.
- The findings suggest that older age should not automatically prevent patients from undergoing VS surgery, and that planned partial resection is a viable option for elderly patients.
Background: Space-occupying tumor bed cysts may exceptionally happen after the resection of diffuse low-grade glioma. Their mechanism and management remain debated. The authors report two cases of tumor bed cysts occurring after the resection of a left temporal diffuse low-grade glioma with two different evolutions.

Interruption of the fistulous arterialized vein point is the goal of surgical treatment. The aim of the study was to compare open surgery (laminectomy) versus minimal invasive surgery (MIS) in SDAVF treatment.

The objective of our study was thus to test the accuracy and interrater reliability of 3D fast-spin echo (FSE) T2-weighted sequences to assess the patency of ETV.
Methods: We included all the consecutive children who underwent surgery for ETV over a two-year period and selected the children who presented ETV dysfunction and matched them with children without dysfunction.
