Simulation in Neurosurgery and Neurosurgical Procedures [PDF]

, 2013
With recent advancement in medical technology, surgical training has evolved as well. The classical teaching is being challenged by legal and ethical concerns for patient safety, work hour restrictions, and the cost of operating room time. Surgical simulation and skill training offer an opportunity to teach, rehearse, and practice advanced techniques ...

Mixed-Reality Simulation for Neurosurgical Procedures

Neurosurgery, 2013
Surgical education is moving rapidly to the use of simulation for technical training of residents and maintenance or upgrading of surgical skills in clinical practice. To optimize the learning exercise, it is essential that both visual and haptic cues are presented to best present a real-world experience.

Evaluation of the use of BioGlue® in neurosurgical procedures

Journal of Clinical Neuroscience, 2003
Post-operative cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) fistula following neurosurgery is associated with increased morbidity and mortality. This prospective study evaluates the efficacy of a new bioadhesive--BioGlue, as a dural sealant in preventing CSF fistula. The complications associated with its use are investigated and the literature regarding dural closure ...
