Proximal Nerve Complexes. A Computational Topology Approach [PDF]
arXiv, 2017 This article introduces a theory of proximal nerve complexes and nerve spokes, restricted to the triangulation of finite regions in the Euclidean plane. A nerve complex is a collection of filled triangles with a common vertex, covering a finite region of the plane. Structures called $k$-spokes, $k\geq 1$, are a natural extension of nerve complexes.

Long term management of intracranial epidermoids balancing extent of resection and functional preservation in a 20 year institutional experience. [PDF]
Sci RepEpidermoid lesions account for 1% of intracranial neoplasms. Surgical management is challenging due to their adhesion to critical neurovascular structures and tendency for recurrence. The current study examines surgical outcomes, extent of resection, and
