Median artery of the corpus callosum(MACC)refers to the median artery of the triplicate anterior cerebral artery(ACA). When MACC distributes to one or to both hemispheres, it is known as the accessory ACA. We performed detailed angiographic analysis of 32 consecutive patients operated upon for distal ACA(DACA)aneurysms, and noted that all DACA aneurysms occurring in the supracallosal portion were accompanied by an accessory ACA as vascular malformation. Such relationship between accessory ACA and DACA aneurysm in the supracallosal portion has not been previously reported.

Introduction: Distal arterial occlusions can cause measurable changes in the flow wave profile in proximal segments of the feeding artery. Our objective was to study the diagnostic accuracy of point-of-care ultrasound (POCUS) of the common carotid arteries (CCA) for detection of anterior circulation large vessel occlusion (ac-LVO) in patients with suspected stroke.

Patients And Methods: We conducted a prospective, single-center, observational study of adult patients with suspected stroke admitted in the emergency department.

Objective: This study aimed to evaluate the efficacy and safety of bisphenol A-glycidyl methacrylate (bis-GMA) without UV light polymerization for the repair of refractory iatrogenic cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) leaks with large skull base defects.

Background: CSF leakage remains a common complication after neurosurgical interventions with a substantial resultant impact on morbidity and increased healthcare costs. The management of refractory CSF leaks with large skull base defects remains challenging.

Although aberrant changes in grey and white matter are core features of idiopathic dystonia, few studies have explored the correlation between grey and white matter changes in this disease. This study aimed to investigate the coupling correlation between morphological and microstructural alterations in patients with idiopathic dystonia. Structural T1 imaging and diffusion tensor imaging were performed on a relatively large cohort of patients.

Brain edema and neurological symptoms are the hallmarks of the uncommon disease known as posterior reversible encephalopathy syndrome (PRES), which can have several etiological causes. Since the etiology determines the course of treatment, diagnosis is crucial. There have only been 14 cases of PRES associated with inflammatory bowel disorders documented.

Mediastinum, as site for malignant melanoma, is extremely rare, both as a primary or metastatic lesion. We present an extremely rare case of primary melanoma presenting as an anterior-superior mediastinal mass in a 65 years-old woman who went to the hospital for neurological symptoms due to unknown metastatic brain melanomas.
