Heterogeneity in definitions of surgical site infection after cranial surgery limits the validity of research findings in neurosurgery: a systematic review.
Neurosurg Rev
January 2025
Department of Neurosurgery, King's College Hospital, London, UK.
Surgical site infections after cranial surgery (SSI-CRAN) are serious adverse events considering the vicinity of the wound to the central nervous system. Variability in outcome definitions can hinder the ability to produce reliable evidence. This systematic review aimed to investigate whether there is variation in SSI-CRAN definitions across studies and its impact on the identification of effective treatments for patients after cranial surgery.

Introduction: The aim of this study was to assess the percentage of trauma patients admitted and receiving intervention, and to identify which of these interventions were performed by non-trauma specialists.
Methods: The authors conducted a retrospective chart review of all adult patients who presented to the trauma service between January 2019 and June 2019. Collected data included demographics, trauma activation level, total interventions performed, interventions performed by the trauma team, interventions performed by subspecialty teams, and isolated injuries requiring orthopedic, neurosurgical, or other specialized care.
A Review of Neurosurgical randomized controlled trials in the Cochrane Database of Systematic Reviews: Key Findings and Implications for Future Research.

Objective: Evidence available to clinicians and patients to inform treatment decisions is ideally produced by randomized controlled trials (RCTs). The objective of this study was to assess the extent to which neurosurgical practice is supported by RCT-level evidence.
Methods: A search of the Cochrane Library was conducted to find reviews of the effectiveness of neurosurgical operative interventions.
Why so slow? The advancement of females in neurosurgery: a 30-year analysis.

Objective: As gender parity in medicine improves, neurosurgery lags behind. In pediatric neurosurgery, considered the most "female-friendly" subspecialty, determining the extent to which gender disparity has evolved over time, and how it compares to other subspecialties, can serve as an important benchmark for neurosurgery altogether. This study analyzed gender parity across different neurosurgical and subspecialty training stages to understand how female representation varies with training level and leadership positions.

Objective: This study aimed to compare the ability of a deep-learning platform (the MACSSwin-T model) with healthcare professionals in detecting cerebral aneurysms from operative videos. Secondly, we aimed to compare the neurosurgical team's ability to detect cerebral aneurysms with and without AI-assistance.
Background: Modern microscopic surgery enables the capture of operative video data on an unforeseen scale.
