Management of a Pott puffy tumor: Case report and literature review.
Int J Surg Case Rep
October 2024
Department of Otolaryngology, Head and Neck Surgery, Ibn Rochd University Hospital, Faculty of Medicine and Pharmacy, Hassan II University, Casablanca, Morocco.
Article Synopsis
- Pott's puffy tumor (PPT) is a rare condition primarily affecting children and teens, characterized by frontal bone osteomyelitis and a subperiosteal abscess, necessitating urgent treatment to avoid serious complications.
- A case study of a 29-year-old woman revealed a post-traumatic periorbital swelling due to this condition, which was confirmed via CT scan and treated with surgery and antibiotics.
- Effective management includes prompt diagnosis through imaging, immediate intravenous antibiotics, and potential surgical interventions to prevent life-threatening complications associated with PPT.
Endoscopic Management of Chronic Subdural Hematoma Using a Novel Brain Retractor.
World Neurosurg
August 2024
Department of Neurosurgery, NSCB Medical College, Jabalpur, India. Electronic address:
Background: Endoscopic procedures are useful in chronic subdural hematoma especially when there are septations, solid/organized hematoma, and the presence of bridging or neovessels in the cavity. Visualizing the distal hematoma cavity by a rigid scope is challenging in large and curved ones due to the hindrance by the brain surface. Combining rigid endoscopy and brain retractor can overcome this limitation.

Plast Reconstr Surg
August 2023
From the Department of Anatomy.
Article Synopsis
- The study focused on how sensory nerve tension and gliding-layer mobility influence brow positioning after an endoscopic brow lift, using 50 cadaveric hemifaces for analytical measurements.
- Findings revealed that the tension in the supraorbital nerve restricted the upward movement of the forehead flap, with observed brow elevation averaging 5.8 mm and critical lifting capacity around 5.3 mm.
- The galeal fat pad contributed significantly to brow mobility, and specific dissection techniques were found to better protect sensory nerves and enhance brow positioning post-surgery.
Complete intraventricular migration of ventriculo-peritoneal shunt: A rare case report.
Int J Surg Case Rep
December 2022
Department of Neurosurgery, IMS and SUM Hospital, Kalinga Nagar, Bhubaneswar, India.
Introduction And Importance: A ventriculoperitoneal (VP) shunt is a cerebral shunt used to treat hydrocephalus. This is used to remove the excessive accumulation of cerebrospinal fluid inside the ventricles.
Case Presentation: We are reporting a rare case of complete intracranial migration of a ventriculoperitoneal shunt, a potentially fatal complication, presenting to us with hydrocephalous.
Intracranially Extended Sinonasal Undifferentiated Carcinoma: A Case Report and Literature Review.
Am J Case Rep
August 2022
1st Academic Neurosurgery Department, Aristotle University of Thessaloniki, AHEPA Hospital, Thessaloniki, Greece.
BACKGROUND Sinonasal undifferentiated carcinomas (SNUC) are highly malignant and rare lesions. Therapeutic efforts often provide frustrating results. Their course is characterized by indolent progression, until it culminates in extensive local infiltration of adjacent anatomical structures or cervical lymphadenopathy in approximately one-third of patients upon admission.
