Direct carotid cavernous fistula is an abnormal arterio-venous connection from the carotid artery to the cavernous sinus (CS), resulting in high-pressure arterial blood entering the low-pressure venous CS. Most often, it occurs posttrauma and presents with ipsilateral orbital signs. In this report, we describe the case of a 54-year-old man, who presented with a late-onset right-sided red eye and diplopia following contralateral (left sided) orbital trauma (road traffic accident 7 months ago).

Background: Melanoma brain metastases represents a significant clinical challenge, frequently associated with high morbidity and mortality. Recent advancements in neuroimaging, radiation therapy, and targeted systemic therapies, specifically BRAF and MEK inhibitors, have improved the management of this condition. Nevertheless, the optimal therapeutic approach for melanoma brain metastases remains a subject of ongoing debate, with no universally accepted treatment protocol.

Patent foramen ovale (PFO) exists in 20-25% of the adult population, and about 40% of adults who present with cryptogenic stroke (CS) have a PFO. The benefit of intervention has been debated with regard to stroke prevention given the high risk of postoperative atrial fibrillation (AF). In light of this, clinical decision-making is guided by PFO-Associated Stroke Causal Likelihood (PASCAL) classification and Risk of Paradoxical Embolism (RoPE) score analysis.

Intracerebral hemorrhage (ICH) is a common neurosurgical emergency that is associated with high morbidity and mortality. Minimally invasive or endoscopic hematoma evacuation has emerged in recent years as a viable alternative to conventional large craniotomies. However, accurate trajectory planning and placement of the tubular retractor remains a challenge.

Syntax, the abstract structure of language, is a hallmark of human cognition. Despite its importance, its neural underpinnings remain obscured by inherent limitations of non-invasive brain measures and a near total focus on comprehension paradigms. Here, we address these limitations with high-resolution neurosurgical recordings (electrocorticography) and a controlled sentence production experiment.
