Introduction: Frontotemporal craniotomies, including pterional craniotomies, are the most commonly performed neurosurgical approaches. We studied the external bony landmarks on the lateral surface of the skull to identify ...

Background Clipping continues to be one of the treatment strategies for ophthalmic artery aneurysms not amenable for stenting or coiling, or when long-term treatment durability is a concern. However, crescent development ...

© 2019 Elsevier Inc.Background: Several diseases that involve the optic canal or its contained structures may cause visual impairment. Several techniques have been developed to decompress the optic nerve. Objective: To ...

To develop a novel approach for highly accelerated Magnetic Resonance Fingerprinting (MRF) acquisition. Materials and methods: The proposed method combines parallel imaging, soft-gating and key-hole approaches to highly ...

Seven sides of cadaver heads were used to compare the surgical exposures provided by the mini-modified orbitozygomatic (MOz) and supra-orbital (SO) approaches. The Optotrak 3020 computerized tracking system (Northern ...

Objective: The minipterional craniotomy (MPTc) has been widely accepted as a minimally invasive alternative to the pterional approach for the treatment of certain small non-ruptured anterior circulation aneurysms. The aim ...

OBJECTIVE: Endonasal and supraorbital eyebrow craniotomies are increasingly being used to remove craniopharyngiomas and tuberculum sellae meningiomas. Herein, we assess the relative advantages, disadvantages, and selection ...

The improvement of surgical techniques as well as the introduction of new surgical instruments promoted the use of keyhole craniotomies in neurosurgery. We evaluated the technical aspects of the supra-orbital keyhole ...
