The authors report a rare case of an aneurysm arising at fenestrated anterior cerebral artery. The embryogenesis of this anatomical variation is discussed along with the review of relevant literature. Management of such lesions depends upon the location and morphology of the aneurysms and intracranial vascular anatomy. The authors discuss various management options and highlight possible technical difficulties that can be encountered in the surgical management of this rare sub-group of aneurysms.

Background And Objective: A safe working trajectory is mandatory for spinal pathologies, especially in the midline, anterior to the spinal cord. For thoracic cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) leaks, we developed a minimally invasive keyhole fenestration. This study investigates the necessary bone removal for sufficient exposure of different leak types particularly regarding weight-bearing structures.

TAAs involving the proximal arch require adequate coverage with thoracic endovascular aortic repair, which is timely and challenging in emergent ruptures. In situ laser fenestration is a novel method of arch revascularization.

Among contributors to diffusible signaling are portal systems which join two capillary beds through connecting veins. Portal systems allow diffusible signals to be transported in high concentrations directly from one capillary bed to the other without dilution in the systemic circulation. Two portal systems have been identified in the brain.

Purpose: Bone cement-reinforced fenestrated pedicle screws (FPSs) have been widely used in the internal fixation and repair of the spine with osteoporosis in recent years and show significant improvement in fixation strength and stability. However, compared with conventional reinforcement methods, the advantages of bone cement-reinforced FPSs remain undetermined. This article compares the effects of fenestrated and conventional pedicle screws (CPSs) combined with bone cement in the treatment of osteoporosis.

Objectives: To evaluate the Outcomes of Fenestration of Lamina Terminalis for Hydrocephalus following Clipping of Ruptured Aneurysms of Anterior Circulation.
Methods: A retrospective case series study was conducted at the Punjab Institute of Neurosciences, Lahore from August 2022 to July 2023. Seventy seven patients meeting the inclusion criteria of age group 20-65 years, ruptured saccular aneurysm of anterior circulation with or without lamina terminalis fenestration during clipping, were enrolled through non-probability convenience sampling.
