Identifying idiopathic intracranial hypertension in a hospital-based chronic headache population: Utility of magnetic resonance imaging, magnetic resonance venography and trans-orbital sonography.
Cephalalgia
October 2024
Department of Neurology, Faculty of Medicine, Ain Shams University, Cairo, Egypt.
Article Synopsis
- Chronic headaches can often stem from cerebro-spinal fluid issues, with Idiopathic Intracranial Hypertension (IIH) being a key example that presents with headaches and vision problems along with signs like papilledema.
- In a study of 168 headache patients, 141 were evaluated, revealing that 27% had IIH, typically characterized by specific headache types, age, and body mass index.
- Diagnostic methods such as fundus examination and MRI/MR venography prove effective in detecting IIH, even identifying cases lacking typical signs like papilledema.
Risk factors of cerebrospinal fluid leakage after neuroendoscopic transsphenoidal pituitary adenoma resection: a systematic review and meta-analysis.

Introduction: Cerebro spinal fluid (CSF) leakage is common and might lead to severe postoperative complications after endoscopic transsphenoidal pituitary adenoma resection. However, the risk factors of postoperative CSF leakage are still controversial. This article presents a systematic review to explore the explicit risk factors of CSF leakage after endoscopic transsphenoidal pituitary adenomere section.

Agence Régionale De Santé, Saint Denis, France.
Article Synopsis
- The study analyzed survival rates after meningioma surgery from a French medical database, focusing on a large patient group over a 10-year period.
- A total of 28,778 patients were assessed, with a high five-year relative survival rate of 96.2%, although there was a notable excess risk of mortality, particularly in males and those with certain health conditions.
- Factors affecting survival included gender, age at surgery, tumor characteristics, previous surgeries, and treatments like radiotherapy, indicating that comprehensive patient profiles are crucial for understanding outcomes.

Post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD) has become epidemic following severely stressful incidents. Previous studies have shown that brain-derived neurotrophic factor (BDNF) has anxiolytic effects on various anxiety or depression disorders including PTSD. However, the detailed mechanisms of BDNF for treating PTSD were rarely investigated.

Cerebro-spinal fluid (CSF) leak in cranial and spinal surgery seriously threatens the clinical prognosis of surgical cases exposing the patients to higher risk of infection, prolonged hospital stay, and need of reoperation. Ultimately, this cascade of events may lead to life-threatening complications, as in cases of meningitis/encephalitis, spondylodiscitis, subdural hematomas, and severe pneumocephalus. Moreover, CSF leak causes a consistent rise in healthcare-related costs which are nearly doubled in CSF leak cases after craniotomy or in spinal surgery.
