Cerebral vasospasm (CV) is a potentially disastrous consequence of subarachnoid hemorrhage despite medical treatment. Nimodipine is a potent drug for vessel relaxation, but side effects… (More)
This study aimed to evaluate the diagnostic imaging findings and treatment results of patients with idiopathic intracranial hypotension (IIH) due to cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) leaks. Between February… (More)
Navigated transcranial magnetic stimulation (nTMS) is a novel tool for preoperative functional mapping. It detects eloquent cortical areas directly, comparable to intraoperative direct cortical… (More)
OBJECTIVE
Intracranial hypotension is a frequently misdiagnosed syndrome which is caused by reduced intracranial cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) pressure due to spontaneous spinal CSF leakage. We present… (More)
Vacuum extraction in nonprogressive labor is a relatively safe procedure. Only a few major complications have been reported in the literature. The authors present a case of severe brain damage with… (More)
Giant intracranial aneurysms (GIA) are often not eligible for direct clip occlusion. Surgical alternatives include partial clip occlusion or the placement of a cerebrovascular bypass or the… (More)
BACKGROUND
Operating on tumors with close margins to the primary motor cortex requires a precise preoperative planning. Transcranial magnetic stimulation (TMS) is the only preoperative technique for… (More)
The purpose of this study was the evaluation of the safety and efficiency of the endovascular treatment of spinal dural arteriovenous fistulas (SDAVFs). Between May 1992 and August 2012, 78 patients… (More)
