Autologous Mastoid Cortex Bone Graft for Multilayer Repair of Lateral Skull Base Defects

open access: yesThe Laryngoscope, EarlyView.
Multilayer repair of lateral skull base cerebrospinal fluid leaks and encephaloceles can be reinforced with rigid autologous grafts. Harvesting a monocortical mastoid cortex bone graft is effective and easy to implement without conferring additional morbidity.

A comparison between robot-assisted minimally invasive surgery and conventional craniotomy for intracerebral hemorrhage: efficiency, complications and outcomes

open access: yesFrontiers in Neurology
BackgroundIntracerebral hemorrhage (ICH) is a severe neurological condition with high morbidity and mortality rates. Robot-Assisted Minimally Invasive Surgery (RA-MIS) has emerged as a novel technique that may offer advantages over traditional craniotomy.

Graded traumatic brain injury severity differentially modulates microglial and astrocytic polarization states and response to minocycline

open access: yesNeuroprotection, EarlyView.
Schematic diagram of the experimental design and key findings of traumatic brain injury (TBI) with varying severities. Mild, moderate, and severe TBI were induced in the right motor cortex of mice using the controlled cortical impact (CCI) method, with impact depths of 0.5, 1.0, and 2.0 mm, respectively. A subset of severe TBI mice received minocycline

Predictors of 30-Day Mortality and Morbidity Following Craniotomy for Traumatic Brain Injury: An ACS NSQIP Database Analysis

open access: yesNeurotrauma Reports
Traumatic brain injury (TBI) is the leading cause of death among trauma patients. Identifying preoperative factors that predict postoperative outcomes in such patients can guide surgical decision-making.

Mortality From Rural Traumatic Brain Injury Are Underestimated Without Inclusion of Prehospital Deaths

open access: yesANZ Journal of Surgery, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background Rural residents are more likely to suffer moderate and severe traumatic brain injury (TBI) and experience delay to definitive care than urban patients. Prior studies comparing these populations were based on hospitalised patients only. We examined TBI outcomes incorporating pre‐hospital mortality to determine the association between

Genotype‐directed therapy for non–small cell lung cancer diagnosed during pregnancy: A pooled analysis of seven cases from the Cancer and Pregnancy Registry with maternal and neonatal outcomes and review of the literature

open access: yesActa Obstetricia et Gynecologica Scandinavica, EarlyView.
In this retrospective case series from a single database of pregnant women with cancer, seven were diagnosed with non‐small cell lung cancer (NSCLC). Chemotherapy and in some cases also biomarker‐directed therapy during pregnancy were associated with disease control allowing delivery closer to term and resulting in improved maternal outcomes compared ...

Arterial to jugular‐bulb lactate difference in patients undergoing elective brain tumor craniotomy

open access: yesPhysiological Reports
Hyperlactatemia is common during tumor craniotomy, but the underlying pathophysiology is unclear. This study measured simultaneous arterial and jugular‐bulb lactate concentrations in patients undergoing brain tumor craniotomy to investigate the ...
