OBJECTIVE: Approximately 10 % of patients with chronic subdural hematoma (CSDH) undergo reoperation after initial surgery. This study aimed to develop a predictive model for the recurrence of unilateral CSDH at initial surgery without hematoma volumetric analysis. METHODS: This single-center retrospective cohort study evaluated pre- and postoperative computed tomography (CT) images of patients with unilateral CSDH. The pre- and postoperative midline shift (MLS), residual hematoma thickness, and subdural cavity thickness (SCT) were measured...

OBJECTIVE: The aim of this study was to assess the safety and efficacy of combined active responsive neurostimulation (RNS) and vagus nerve stimulation (VNS) therapies in pediatric patients with drug-resistant epilepsy. METHODS: A single-center retrospective chart review was conducted on pediatric patients implanted with the RNS System with a concomitant active VNS System (VNS+RNS) between 2015 and 2021. Patients with at least 1 month of overlapping concomitant VNS and RNS treatment were included...

OBJECTIVE: Although medical advances have allowed most patients with spina bifida (SB) to survive into adulthood, these patients may have physical impairments, urological complications, infections, and neurocognitive deficits. These factors can cause psychological distress and impact the transition from pediatric to adult care. There remains limited research on mental health disorders (MHDs) and substance use disorders (SUDs) in SB patients during this vulnerable transition period. This study aimed to investigate the 10-year incidence of MHDs and SUDs in 18- to 25-year-old patients with SB...

OBJECTIVE: Morning glory disc anomaly (MGDA), a congenital abnormality of the optic nerve, may be associated with moyamoya arteriopathy, a cerebrovascular abnormality. In this study, the authors aimed to define the temporal evolution of cerebrovascular arteriopathy in patients with MGDA to characterize a rational strategy for screening and management over time. METHODS: The records of pediatric neurosurgical patients at two academic institutions were retrospectively reviewed to identify cases of cerebral arteriopathy and MGDA, including radiographic and clinical records documenting patient outcomes of medical and surgical management...

OBJECTIVE: Programmable valves have gained increasing popularity in the complex treatment of pediatric hydrocephalus. Over the last decade, adjustable serial valves have gradually replaced fixed-pressure valves in the authors' department. The present study investigates this development by analyzing shunt- and valve-related outcomes for this vulnerable population. METHODS: A retrospective analysis of all shunting procedures between January 2009 and January 2021 in children younger than 1 year of age was performed at the authors' single-center institution...

OBJECTIVE: Hemispherectomy is a complex surgical intervention for medically refractory epilepsy, and its surgical sequelae continue to be defined. The incidence, timing, and predictors of postoperative hydrocephalus are not well understood. Correspondingly, the aim of this study was to define the natural history of the development of hydrocephalus after hemispherectomy based on the authors' institutional experience. METHODS: The authors performed a retrospective review of their departmental database for all relevant cases between 1988 and 2018...

OBJECTIVE: Spinal osteomyelitis and spondylodiscitis (SD) are infections of the vertebral body and disc, respectively, with more than 50% associated with Staphylococcus aureus. Methicillin-resistant S. aureus (MRSA) has become a pathogen of interest in cases of SD due to increasing prevalence. The purpose of this investigation was to characterize the current epidemiological and microbiological landscape in SD cases, in addition to medical and surgical challenges in treating these infections...

OBJECTIVE: Bertolotti syndrome is a clinical diagnosis given to patients with low-back pain arising from a lumbosacral transitional vertebra (LSTV). While biomechanical studies have demonstrated abnormal torques and range of motion occurring at and above this type of LSTV, the long-term effects of these biomechanical changes on the LSTV adjacent segments are not well understood. This study examined degenerative changes at segments superjacent to the LSTV in patients with Bertolotti syndrome...

OBJECTIVE: Increasing life expectancy has led to an older population. In this study, the authors analyzed complications and outcomes in elderly patients following spinal cord injury (SCI) using the established multi-institutional prospective study Transforming Research and Clinical Knowledge in SCI (TRACK-SCI) database collected in the Department of Neurosurgical Surgery at the University of California, San Francisco. METHODS: TRACK-SCI was queried for elderly individuals (≥ 65 years of age) with traumatic SCI from 2015 to 2019...

OBJECTIVE: The ability to predict final lesion characteristics during magnetic resonance-guided focused ultrasound (MRgFUS) thalamotomy for the treatment of essential tremor remains technically challenging, yet it is essential in order to avoid off-target ablation and to ensure adequate treatment. The authors sought to evaluate the technical feasibility and utility of intraprocedural diffusion-weighted imaging (DWI) in the prediction of final lesion size and location. METHODS: Lesion diameter and distance from the midline were measured on both intraprocedural and immediate postprocedural diffusion and T2-weighted sequences...

OBJECTIVE: The focus of this modified Delphi study was to investigate and build consensus regarding the medical management of children with moderate and severe acute spinal cord injury (SCI) during their initial inpatient hospitalization. This impetus for the study was based on the AANS/CNS guidelines for pediatric SCI published in 2013, which indicated that there was no consensus provided in the literature describing the medical management of pediatric patients with SCIs. METHODS: An international, multidisciplinary group of 19 physicians, including pediatric neurosurgeons, orthopedic surgeons, and intensivists, were asked to participate...

OBJECTIVE: Endonasal endoscopic odontoidectomy (EEO) is an alternative to transoral surgery for symptomatic ventral compression of the anterior cervicomedullary junction (CMJ), allowing for earlier extubation and feeding. Because the procedure destabilizes the C1-2 ligamentous complex, posterior cervical fusion is often performed concomitantly. The authors' institutional experience was reviewed to describe the indications, outcomes, and complications in a large series of EEO surgical procedures in which EEO was combined with posterior decompression and fusion...

OBJECTIVE: Preoperative differentiation of facial nerve schwannoma (FNS) from vestibular schwannoma (VS) can be challenging, and failure to differentiate between these two pathologies can result in potentially avoidable facial nerve injury. This study presents the combined experience of two high-volume centers in the management of intraoperatively diagnosed FNSs. The authors highlight clinical and imaging features that can distinguish FNS from VS and provide an algorithm to help manage intraoperatively diagnosed FNS...

OBJECTIVE: Newly diagnosed patients with a familial cavernous malformation (FCM) and their families are concerned about their future outlook, which is scarcely discussed in the literature. The authors studied a prospective contemporary cohort of patients with FCMs to assess demographics, mode of presentation, prospective risk of hemorrhage and seizures, need for surgery, and functional outcome over an extended interval. METHODS: A prospectively maintained database beginning January 1, 2015, of patients diagnosed with a cavernous malformation (CM) was queried...

OBJECTIVE: There is a need to better understand and predict postsurgical outcomes for degenerative cervical myelopathy (DCM) patients, particularly to support treatment decisions for patients with mild DCM. The goal of this study was to identify and predict outcome trajectories for DCM patients up to 2 years postsurgery. METHODS: The authors analyzed two North American multicenter prospective DCM studies (n = 757). Functional recovery and physical health component quality of life were assessed in DCM patients at baseline, 6 months, and 1 and 2 years postoperatively using the modified Japanese Orthopaedic Association (mJOA) score and Physical Component Summary (PCS) of the SF-36, respectively...
