The agenesis of any segment of the lower spinal column referred to as "caudal regression syndrome" (CRS) is a rare congenital defect of the spine. This malformation is characterized by the absence of some or the entire lumbosacral vertebral segment. Etiological factors remain unknown.

Objective: How attitudes toward neuroanatomy and preferences of studying resources vary among neurosurgeons is unknown. The impact of the coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) pandemic on anatomy learning habits is also yet to be elucidated. In this study, we explore these objectives, to guide the development of future neurosurgeon-tailored anatomy education and resources.

Background: The anatomy of both the skull and the brain offers many landmarks that could lead surgery. Cranial "craniometric" key points were described many years ago, and then, cerebral key points-along sulci and gyri-were detailed more recently for microneurosurgical approaches that can reach deep structures while sparing the brain. Nonetheless, this anatomic knowledge is progressively competed by new digital devices, such as imaging guidance systems, although they can be misleading.

Background: As sexual health is an important aspect of general quality of life, discussing and treating sexual health issues should also be part of the oncological care given to patients. It is unknown to what extent neurosurgeons discuss sexual health issues with patients suffering from brain tumors.
Methods: A 25-question survey was sent to members of the Congress of Neurological Surgeons by email.

Study Design: Observational retrospective survey-based study.
Introduction: Intracranial aneurysms (IA) can be treated with microsurgery or by endovascular treatments (EVT). EVT have taken an increasingly important part in IA management; the ability of neurosurgical teams to perform such surgery as well as the quality of their training is being questioned.
