The current case report presents a rare occurrence of cerebral infarction with bilateral sudden deafness as the primary symptom. The patient was a 59-year-old man with hypertension who tested positive for new coronary antibodies and had a long history of smoking and alcohol consumption. Despite receiving treatment for sudden deafness, the patient's condition rapidly deteriorated and he was diagnosed with basilar artery occlusion and stenosis.

: Superior cerebellar artery (SCA) aneurysms are exceedingly rare, posing unique diagnostic and management challenges due to their complex anatomical location within the posterior circulation. The proximity of the SCA to vital structures, such as the brainstem and cerebellum, along with the significant role of poorly controlled hypertension in aneurysm formation, further complicates treatment. This case aims to highlight the surgical approach and management strategies employed in treating a rare SCA aneurysm in a patient with longstanding hypertension.

While brainstem regions are central regulators of blood pressure, the neuronal mechanisms underlying their role in hypertension remain poorly understood. Here, we investigated the structural and genetic relationships between global and regional brainstem volumes and blood pressure. We used magnetic resonance imaging data from n=32,666 UK Biobank participants, and assessed the association of volumes of the whole brainstem and its main regions with blood pressure.

Importance: Invasive intracranial pressure (ICP) is the standard of care in patients with acute brain injury (ABI) with impaired consciousness. The Neurological Pupil Index (NPi) obtained by automated pupillometry is promising for noninvasively estimating ICP.
Objectives: To evaluate the association between repeated NPi and invasive ICP values.
