Creation of a microsurgical neuroanatomy laboratory and virtual operating room: a preliminary study.

Objective: A comprehensive understanding of microsurgical neuroanatomy, familiarity with the operating room environment, patient positioning in relation to the surgery, and knowledge of surgical approaches is crucial in neurosurgical education. However, challenges such as limited patient exposure, heightened patient safety concerns, a decreased availability of surgical cases during training, and difficulties in accessing cadavers and laboratories have adversely impacted this education. Three-dimensional (3D) models and augmented reality (AR) applications can be utilized to depict the cortical and white matter anatomy of the brain, create virtual models of patient surgical positions, and simulate the operating room and neuroanatomy laboratory environment.

: Neurosurgery has been underrepresented in the medical school curriculum. Advances in augmented reality and 3D printing have opened the way for early practical training through simulations. We assessed the usability of the UpSurgeOn simulation-based training model and report first experiences from a hands-on neurosurgery course for medical students.

Background: Aneurysms of the A1 segment of the anterior cerebral artery (ACA) are rare and have characteristics differentiating them from other intracranial aneurysms. Their microsurgical management is challenging and requires different strategies. In this article, we review the surgical anatomy of the A1 segment of the ACA with cadaveric dissections and describe the microsurgical management of complex A1 aneurysms with illustrative cases.

The incorporation of perspective into art and science revolutionized the study of the brain. Beginning in about 1504, Leonardo da Vinci began to model the ventricles of the brain in three dimensions. A few years later, Andreus Vesalius illustrated radically novel brain dissections.
