Cochlear and brainstem implantation
Otolaryngologic Clinics of North America, 2002Cochlear implantation is an established habilitative and rehabilitative option for profoundly deafened individuals over 1 year of age who derive limited benefit from conventional hearing aids. Auditory performance varies among individuals and is determined primarily by age at implantation, pre-existence of speech and language skills, and the time ...

Cerebellar and Brainstem Malformations
Neuroimaging Clinics of North America, 2016The frequency and importance of the evaluation of the posterior fossa have increased significantly over the past 20 years owing to advances in neuroimaging. Conventional and advanced neuroimaging techniques allow detailed evaluation of the complex anatomic structures within the posterior fossa.

The complex neuroanatomy of the brainstem and the additional distortion incurred by intrinsic lesions have previously discouraged aggressive neurosurgical procedures. Safe access to the brainstem and complete lesionectomy has been thwarted by considerable perioperative risk.

Abstract The brainstem is the lowermost, stalk-like part of the brain. Phylogenetically it is the oldest part of the human brain, similar in structure and function to the brains of reptiles and fish. The brainstem controls basic functions necessary for physiologic survival, such as heart rate, breathing, and digestion, as well as sleep ...

Abstract The Brainstem IS arguably the most important anatomical region of the nervous system; all fibers that pass to and from the cerebrum go through it and it contains numerous neuronal pools requisite for survival. Despite its importance, it is suprisingly small—only 6 × 3 × 3 cm in size (54 cm3 in volume), which means its neurons ...

Abstract The brainstem, responsible for many primitive reflexes, is composed of the midbrain, the pons, and the medulla, each of which performs critical roles in homeostasis. This chapter examines the anatomy and function of each region, as well as reviewing the brainstem’s role in postoperative nausea and emesis.

Abstract The external and internal features of the brainstem—medulla oblongata, pons, and midbrain—are described. The general organization of the grey and white matter, and the position of cranial nerve nuclei in functional columns are outlined.
