Unlabelled: The concept of minimally invasive neurosurgery has significantly evolved in recent years, which is associated with improvements in diagnostics, microneurosurgical techniques, anesthesiology, and intraoperative imaging.
Material And Methods: We present the preliminary results of using transpalpebral craniotomy in surgery of supratentorial aneurysms and anterior cranial fossa tumors. In the period between 2015 and 2107, we used this approach in surgical treatment of 30 aneurysms (10 aneurysms in the 'cold' period of hemorrhage and 20 unruptured aneurysms) and 10 anterior cranial fossa base tumors. The approach included a superior eyelid incision and a fronto-orbital craniotomy. We retrospectively evaluated outcomes, postoperative complications, and cosmetic results after these operations. The mean follow-up period was 6 months.
Results: There were no deaths, disabilities, or serious permanent approach-associated complications. All patients had expected periorbital edema that was not considered as a complication.
Conclusion: Transpalpebral craniotomy is a safe and effective approach to anterior cranial fossa neoplasms and anterior circle of Willis aneurysms. This approach avoids injury to the frontal and temporal muscles as well as to the facial and trigeminal nerve branches. Patients assessed the postoperative cosmetic result as excellent.

Management and outcomes of internal carotid artery, anterior cerebral artery, or middle cerebral artery injury during microsurgical approach of the anterior and middle cranial skull base: insights from a systematic review and a case series.

Injury of the internal carotid artery (ICA), anterior cerebral artery (ACA), and middle cerebral artery (MCA) are rare but devastating complications during microsurgery of the anterior and middle cranial skull base. We systematically reviewed the current knowledge on ICA, ACA, and MCA injury during skull base microsurgery and performed a multicentric data collection to refine their management. A systematic review of ICA, ACA, and MCA injuries during direct microsurgical approaches to the anterior and middle cranial skull base was performed, using PRISMA-IPD guidelines and using a multicentric case collection.

Background: This study examines the management and outcomes of large paranasal sinus osteomas (PSO), especially those abutting or encasing critical structures of the skull base and orbit.
Methodology: A multicentric retrospective analysis was conducted between June 2007 and September 2023. The study included surgically treated (regardless the type of approach chosen) PSO, exceeding 3 cm in diameter and/or located in critical anatomical areas.
The rectus abdominis tendon insertion to the pubic bone and its clinical implications: A cadaveric study.

Department of Orthopaedic Surgery, Medical School, University of Crete, 71110 Heraklion, Greece.
Purpose: The primary aim of this study is to determine the rectus abdominis tendon (RAT) insertional anatomy and consequently clarify the extension of secure mobilization of the tendon from the pubic bone in the setting of anterior approaches in pelvic and acetabular reconstruction surgery.
Materials And Methods: Eleven fresh frozen cadaveric pelvises were dissected by two fellowship-trained orthopaedic trauma surgeons utilizing the anterior intrapelvic approach (AIP). The RAT at the pubic body was dissected, and its footprint on the pubic bone was defined, marked, and measured.
Jansen metaphyseal chondrodysplasia: analysis of craniofacial manifestations.

Jansen metaphyseal chondrodysplasia (JMC) is an ultra-rare disorder caused by constitutive activation of parathyroid hormone type 1 receptor (PTH1R). We sought to characterize the craniofacial phenotype of patients with the disease. Six patients with genetically confirmed JMC underwent comprehensive craniofacial phenotyping revealing a distinct facial appearance that prompted a cephalometric analysis demonstrating a pattern of mandibular retrognathia.

Craniosynostosis, a condition marked by the premature fusion of one or more cranial sutures, exhibits diverse phenotypes. This study aims to advance the understanding of these phenotypes beyond the conventional 2-dimensional analysis by focusing on identifying indicators of increased intracranial pressure (ICP) such as bony thinning or irregularities in skull morphology. A retrospective review was conducted for all pediatric patients with midline craniosynostosis who presented to our tertiary academic center for evaluation.
