Surgical site infections (SSIs) after craniotomy lead to additional morbidity and mortality for patients, which are related to higher costs for the healthcare system. Furthermore, SSIs are associated with a longer hospital stay for the patient, which is particularly detrimental in glioblastoma patients due to their limited life expectancy. Risk factors for SSIs have already been described for craniotomies in general.

Article Synopsis
- Spinal cord injury (SCI) leads to impairments in sensory and motor functions, with free radicals contributing to tissue damage, and there are no effective drugs currently available for neuroprotection.
- The study aimed to explore the effects of N-acetylcysteine (NAC) on spinal cord regeneration in rats after induced injury, comparing treated and control groups.
- Results indicated that NAC treatment improved locomotor activity and decreased lesion length, suggesting potential neuroprotective properties, although the overall extent of recovery varied between the groups.

The present article reports the clinical cases of the surgical intervention on 20 patients presenting with petrous bone cholesteatoma. We have identified several clinical variants of petrous bone cholesteatoma based on the results of multispiral computed tomography (MSCT) of the temporal bones and categorized them into the following types in accordance with the classification proposed by Moffat-Smith an M. Sanna for this pathological condition: supralabyrinthine (n=8), supralabyrinthine-apical (n=2), infralabyrinthine (n=3), infralabyrinthine-apical (n=5), massive (n=1), and massive - apical (n=1).

Background/aim: This paper presents our operative method for hearing recovery after the previous radical tympanomasto-idectomy, radical trepanation of the temporal bone (trepanatio radicalis ossis temporalis--TROT) in eight patients submitted to operations for giant cholesteatotoma.
Methods: All the patients were admitted to our clinic after TROT. There were no signs of cholesteatoma or infection.
