Background And Objectives: The intraosseous subarcuate loop (SL) is a unique variant of the anterior inferior cerebellar artery (AICA), where a loop of the artery is trapped in the petrous bone's subarcuate fossa (SF). Recognizing this variant is crucial for planning cerebellopontine angle (CPA) surgeries; however, data regarding its frequency and management vary in the published literature. A cohort from a single center was studied using MRI to assess its prevalence, and the findings were compared with the existing literature.

Background And Objectives: Access to the amygdala and hippocampus (A/H) is complex. To address the limitations and invasiveness of traditional approaches, including the Transsylvian, Subtemporal, and Supracerebellar infratentorial approaches, we developed the suprapetrous infratemporal (SPIT) approach. This study describes the nuances of this approach in both cadaveric studies and clinical cases.

Background: To review the treatment and the causes of postoperative epidural hematoma (PEDH) after intracranial tumor resection.
Method: A retrospective case study was conducted to examine a series of patients who developed PEDH as a complication following intracranial tumor resection between January 2016 and June 2021. The study collected data from hospital charts, including clinical status at admission, imaging results, histopathologic findings, surgical management, complications, and outcomes.

Detachable-tip microcatheters are frequently used for endovascular embolization of arteriovenous shunts. Occasionally, the detachable tip can break during navigation resulting in the loss of the microcatheter tip in a vessel, which can lead to thrombo-embolic complications and also limit further navigation into the vessel to complete treatment. We present a case of dural AV-fistula embolization that was complicated by the accidental detachment and loss of the tip of a microcatheter during navigation to injection site.
