Published: May 2023

Large anterior clinoidal meningiomas are tumors that arise on the anterior clinoid often compressing and encasing the nearby neurovascular structures such as the carotid artery and the optic nerve. These remain as very challenging cases for neurosurgeons because of the issues concerning preservation of critical structures and gross total excision. In this video submission, we will show a case of a large anterior clinoidal meningioma through a tailored frontotemporoorbitozygomotic craniotomy with emphasis on anterior clinoidectomy and the different corridors that can be obtained by this particular approach. The methodical dissection of the tumor and the other critical structures can also be seen.

Background: COVID-related clinic shutdowns mandated the use of a day 1 telephone follow-up the day after routine cataract surgery rather than clinic attendance. We investigated to see if this is a safe alternative to standard care.

Methods: Ninety-nine patients who underwent a routine cataract extraction between 22 April 2020 and 19 August 2020 at our Hospital were included in this audit.

This study investigates post-stroke cognitive impairment (PSCI) by utilizing spectral dynamic causal modeling (spDCM) to examine changes in effective connectivity (EC) within the default mode, executive control, dorsal attention, and salience networks. Forty-one PSCI patients and 41 demographically matched healthy controls underwent 3D-T1WI and resting-state functional magnetic resonance imaging on a 3.0T MRI.

: This study explores how thoracic orientation affects lung pressure and injury outcomes from shock waves, building on earlier research that suggested human posture impacts injury severity. : A layered finite element model of the chest was constructed based on the Chinese Visual Human Dataset (CVH), including the rib and intercostal muscle layers. The dynamic response of the chest under 12 different angle-oriented shock waves under incident pressures of 200 kPa and 500 kPa was calculated.
