Radiation-sparing techniques for pedicle screw guidance: a narrative review
Background: Accurate pedicle screw placement is fundamental to spinal instrumentation, but fluoroscopy and intraoperative computed tomography expose patients and operating-room personnel to ionizing radiation. Because many emerging technologies reduce rather than eliminate radiation across an…

Transorbital endoscopic resection of hyperostotic sphenoid wing meningioma: when the orbit becomes the corridor
Background: Sphenoid wing meningiomas are common skull base tumors that often present surgical challenges due to their proximity to critical neurovascular structures and frequent association with hyperostotic bone. While transcranial approaches remain the standard for resection, they are associated…

Two-staged resections for huge fronto-temporo-insular glioma: Single-center experience with 8 patients
Purpose: Insular glioma often invades into the frontal and/or temporal lobes, leading to huge expansion of tumor volume. Surgical removal of huge fronto-temporo-insular glioma (FTIG) remains challenging, and we have removed huge FTIGs using two-staged resections. This report aimed to review our…

Deep brain stimulation for obsessive compulsive disorders: Results of a new treatment in a developing country
Introduction: Obsessive-Compulsive Disorder (OCD) is a chronic psychiatric disorder with limited treatment options. Deep brain stimulation (DBS) has been proposed recently for reducing the symptoms of these patients. In this case series, we have described four cases of OCD patients who were treated…

Journal Article
Nanoparticles as MRI contrast agents for improving target nuclei localization in deep brain stimulation: a systematic review
Background: Deep brain stimulation (DBS) is an established therapeutic modality for advanced movement disorders, where clinical efficacy critically depends on sub-millimetric electrode targeting accuracy. Conventional stereotactic MRI often provides suboptimal delineation of target boundaries, such…

Mesh-graft duraplasty using autologous fascia lata for reconstruction of a large infected cranial dural defect: Technical note
Background: Duraplasty is a critical step in neurosurgical procedures. Reconstruction of large dural defects may be challenging when the amount of available autologous tissue is limited, particularly in an infected surgical field. We describe a technical modification in which autologous fascia lata…

Journal Article
Sustained resolution of suicidality following partial amygdalectomy in a patient with extensive prefrontal resection: A case report
Background: Lesions in the frontotemporal regions often produce complex psychiatric and behavioral symptoms by disrupting prefrontal-limbic networks. However, the specific contributions of individual nodes within this network to suicidality in humans remain poorly defined. Observations from staged…

Journal Article
Clinical characteristics and treatment methods of arachnoid cysts combined with chronic subdural hematomas
Aim: To investigate the clinical characteristics and optimal treatment methods for arachnoid cysts (ACs) combined with chronic subdural hematomas (CSDH). Material and methods: From February 2008 to December 2024, 22 patients with ACs combined with CSDH were treated in the Department of Neurosurgery…

Journal Article
Transient blood pressure elevation during temporal interference stimulation of the right centromedian nucleus in a pDoC patient
Background: Temporal interference (TI) stimulation is an emerging non-invasive technology for deep brain neuromodulation. While generally considered safe, the potential risks of off-target autonomic activation in patients with severe structural brain lesions remain poorly understood. Case…

Journal Article
Extracranial subcutaneous metastasis of IDH-wildtype glioblastoma with divergent DNA methylation profiles: a case report
Background: Glioblastoma (GBM) typically remains confined to the central nervous system, and extracranial metastasis is exceedingly rare. When extracranial dissemination does occur, the molecular characteristics of extraneural tumor components relative to the parent GBM remain poorly characterized…

Journal Article
Perioperative invasiveness of endoscopic tumor biopsy for primary central nervous system lymphoma: comparison with stereotactic tumor biopsy
Background: In patients with primary central nervous system lymphoma (PCNSL), surgical intervention is limited to biopsy for pathological diagnosis. Stereotactic tumor biopsy (STB) is widely used due to minimal invasiveness. However, blind sampling carries a hemorrhage risk and may yield…

Journal Article
Retinal microvascular lesions and the risk of stroke after subarachnoid hemorrhage
Objective: Delayed cerebral ischemia (DCI) is a fatal complication of subarachnoid hemorrhage (SAH) causing high mortality and disability. This study aimed to explore the predictive value of optical coherence tomography angiography (OCTA)-based retinal macular microvascular density for SAH-related…

Feasibility of dural repair in the lumbar spine using soft-embalmed human cadavers according to Dodge – a pilot study
Background: Incidental durotomy is a frequent intraoperative complication in lumbar spine surgery and requires advanced technical skills to prevent adverse outcomes. Despite the importance of surgical proficiency, there is a lack of realistic training models that adequately replicate intraoperative…

Journal Article
A case of tumefactive demyelinating lesion mimicking cerebral parasite, infection or brain tumor
Background: Tumefactive demyelinating lesion (TDL) is a rare inflammatory central nervous system disorder that frequently mimics malignant brain tumors or infectious abscesses both clinically and radiologically. Due to its hypercellular nature, it presents a formidable diagnostic challenge…

Surgical decision-making in movement disorders: an evidence-informed narrative review of patient selection, target selection, and contemporary surgical strategies
Background: Surgical treatment of movement disorders has expanded substantially with advances in deep brain stimulation (DBS), magnetic resonance-guided focused ultrasound (MRgFUS), stereotactic targeting, and emerging neuromodulation technologies. However, selection among these approaches remains…
