Quadrigeminal arachnoid cyst: Factors affecting outcomes and complications in a large series of cases.
Clin Neurol Neurosurg
December 2024
Department of Neurosurgery, National Institute of Mental Health and Neurosciences, Bengaluru, India. Electronic address:
Purpose: Arachnoid cysts constitute approximately 1 % of intracranial mass lesions, with quadrigeminal cistern arachnoid cysts being 5-18 % of those. This study presents a series of 31 cases of quadrigeminal cistern arachnoid cysts, constituting the most extensive series reported to date.
Methods: A retrospective analysis was conducted on 31 patients diagnosed with quadrigeminal cistern arachnoid cysts, focusing on clinical presentation, demographics, treatment approaches, and outcomes.
Disseminated Intracranial and Spinal Neurenteric Cysts: A Case Report and Literature Review.

Neurenteric cysts (NECs) are rare congenital, benign lesions of the central nervous system (CNS), predominantly located within the spinal cord. However, they may also occur less frequently within the brainstem, fourth ventricle, or cerebellopontine angle (CPA). Originating from anomalous interactions between embryonic layers, NECs are recognized for their potential to compress adjacent structures.

Brain Spine
July 2024
Department of Neurosurgery, University of Pittsburgh Medical Center (UPMC), 1542 Spring Park Walk, Pittsburgh, 15064, Pennsylvania, United States.
Background: The Precentral Cerebellar Vein (PCV) plays a crucial role as an anatomical landmark in neurosurgery, and the possibility of its safe sacrifice is controversial. Understanding its anatomical nuances and clinical implications is fundamental in enhancing neurosurgical practice.
Methods: A systematic review following PRISMA guidelines was conducted to consolidate literature on the PCV.
Occipital Interhemispheric Retrocallosal Transtentorial Approach to a Tectal Tumor in an 8-Year-Old Girl: Operative Video.

Department of Pediatric Neurosurgery, Arnold Palmer Hospital for Children, Orlando, FL, USA.
Pineal lesions represent less than 1% of all brain tumors (Villani et al., Clin Neurol Neurosurg 109:1-6, 2007). The abysmal location and critical neurovascular structures remain a surgical challenge, despite the advent of microneurosurgery.
