Middle meningeal artery embolization for the management of chronic subdural hematoma
Chronic subdural hematoma (cSDH) is one of the most common neurosurgical diagnoses in adults. The disease is fundamentally a disorder of the meningeal blood vessels, and options exist for the minimally invasive neuroendovascular management. We review the

Inherited metabolic epilepsies–established diseases, new approaches
Abstract Inherited metabolic epilepsies (IMEs) represent the inherited metabolic disorders (IMDs) in which epilepsy is a prevailing component, often determining other neurodevelopmental outcomes associated with the disorder. The different metabolic pathways affected by individual IMEs are the basis of their rarity and heterogeneity.

The landscape of epilepsy surgery in older adults: Challenges and opportunities
Abstract The prevalence of epilepsy increases with age, and with the aging population, the number of drug‐resistant epilepsy (DRE) cases is expected to rise. However, epilepsy surgery remains underutilized and is typically offered to younger adults. Despite historical hesitancy due to concerns over risks and outcomes, evidence over the last two decades

Managing hydrocephalus in patients with leptomeningeal disease: A multicenter retrospective analysis
What's New? Leptomeningeal disease is a highly palliative condition of tumor cell seeding that can cause symptomatic hydrocephalus. This multi‐center retrospective study of patients with leptomeningeal disease‐associated hydrocephalus compared the placement of ventriculoperitoneal shunts and Rickham reservoirs for cerebrospinal fluid drainage.

Subdural empyema mimicking subacute subdural hematoma on CT imaging
We report a case of a 35-year-old male who was treated with craniectomy, subdural empyema evacuation, and subsequent intravenous antibiotic therapy. The patient presented with what appeared to be signs of a subacute subdural hematoma on imaging.
