Brain metastases (BM) are the most prevalent intracranial malignancies. Approximately 30-40% of cancer patients develop BM at some stage of their illness, presenting with a high incidence and poor prognosis. Our clinical findings indicate a significant disparity in the efficacy between non-enhanced and enhanced lung cancer BM.

Indirect revascularization is widely accepted as a surgical treatment for pediatric moyamoya disease, but it does not augment cerebral blood flow immediately, which leaves patients at risk for stroke peri-operatively. This delay in flow augmentation may make adding direct bypass the better option.

Middle cerebral artery (MCA) aneurysms remain excellent candidates for microsurgical treatment, despite proliferation of new endovascular tools. Nonetheless, patients desire less invasive options for permanent, durable treatment of their aneurysms; this is particularly the case for those presenting without subarachnoid hemorrhage, and those with multiple aneurysms that may require several surgical approaches. Keyhole craniotomies, when properly utilized in well-selected patients, allow for minimally invasive treatment of both ruptured and unruptured cerebral aneurysms, including those harboring bilateral aneurysms which may be treated from a single approach.
