Multidisciplinary management of early esophageal fistula after anterior cervical spine surgery: a case report emphasizing team-based care.
Wound Manag Prev
December 2024
The First Affiliated Hospital, Unit of Nurses, Zhejiang University School of Medicine, Hangzhou, China.
Background: Early esophageal fistula formation following anterior cervical spine surgery presents a formidable clinical challenge, necessitating astute rehabilitative nursing management. Such fistulas, if not promptly and effectively managed, can precipitate grave complications including mediastinitis, sepsis, respiratory failure, and, in severe instances, mortality. This underscores the critical need for immediate, comprehensive nursing interventions designed to mitigate these risks and enhance patient outcomes.

From the Department of Neurosurgery (D.N., L.H., J.G., T.P., R.T.S., A.R., C.M.J.); Department of Neuroradiology (T.D., E.I.P.), Institute of Diagnostic and Interventional Neuroradiology, and Department of Neurology (C.S.), Inselspital, Bern University Hospital, University of Bern, Bern, Switzerland. Department of Neurosurgery (J.B.), Medical Center, University of Freiburg, Freiburg, Germany.
Background And Purpose: In patients diagnosed with spontaneous intracranial hypotension (SIH), microspurs are considered the culprit lesion in most ventral dural leaks (type I). The imaging characteristics of discogenic spurs, and their prevalence in the general population has not been reported in the literature.
Materials And Methods: This observational case-control study was conducted comparing the prevalence and characteristics of discogenic microspurs between SIH patients with a type I leak treated at a tertiary hospital between 2013 and 2023 and an age-and sex matched cohort of trauma patients.

Introduction to Digital Subtraction Myelography for CSF-Venous Fistula Detection.
AJNR Am J Neuroradiol
January 2025
From the Mayo Clinic, Department of Radiology, Rochester, Minnesota.
The purpose of this video is to introduce digital subtraction myelography for CSF-venous fistula (CVF) detectection. CVF is the most recently identified and likely the most prevalent type of spinal CSF leak that leads to spontaneous intracranial hypotension CVFs are occult on conventional MRI and CT, necessitating the use of myelography for the diagnosis. This video highlights one such technique, which is important because an increasing number of centers are starting to diagnose CVF.
