Delayed brain and spine migration of a retained SEEG electrode fragment: An unexpected complication

Epileptic Disorders, EarlyView.
Abstract Background Stereoelectroencephalography (SEEG) is a well‐established technique for localizing epileptogenic zones in patients with drug‐resistant epilepsy, including children. While considered safe, rare but serious complications can occur.

Calcitonin gene‐related peptide concentration in cerebrospinal fluid and serum in horses affected by trigeminal‐mediated headshaking

Equine Veterinary Journal, EarlyView.
Abstract Background Trigeminal‐mediated headshaking (TMHS) in horses shares clinical features with human trigeminal neuralgia (HTN). Increased levels of the neuropeptide calcitonin gene‐related peptide (CGRP) have been found in the blood and cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) of HTN patients. Inhibition of CGRP in humans has shown promise for pain relief.

Focusing on spinal stenosis: emerging discoveries concerning Alendronate-induced risks and genetic drug targets

Journal of Orthopaedic Surgery and Research
Background Spinal stenosis is a common disease in clinical practice, and drug use is one of its potential predisposing factors. Alendronate, a widely used clinical drug for osteoporosis treatment, has the potential to trigger spinal stenosis.

Percutaneous transforaminal full endoscopic decompression for the treatment of lumbar spinal stenosis

BMC Musculoskeletal Disorders, 2020
Background One advantage of an endoscopic approach to treating lumbar spinal stenosis is preservation of spine stability and the adjacent anatomy, and there is a decrease in adjacent segment disc degeneration. The purpose of this study was to discuss the

Barriers to nutrition following neurosurgery: A descriptive cohort study

Journal of Parenteral and Enteral Nutrition, EarlyView.
Abstract Background Neurological trauma results in a state of hypermetabolism. Existing literature has explored barriers to adequate nutrition following traumatic brain injury. Despite clinical similarities, it remains unclear whether similar nutritional barriers are faced following both planned and emergency neurosurgical procedures.
