Background: Glossopharyngeal neuralgia (GPN) is a rare facial pain syndrome with debilitating symptoms. For medication-resistant GPN, stereotactic radiosurgery (SRS) is an emerging treatment option with a promising role; however, recurrence rates after SRS are fairly high. We present a patient who underwent repeat SRS for recurrent GPN and subsequently maintained over 3 years of complete pain relief. For the first time, we present a systematic review of repeat SRS for recurrent GPN. Summary: Twelve...

Abstract Stress can modulate the recruitment of multiple memory systems during learning, favoring dorsal striatal ‘habit’ learning over hippocampal ‘cognitive’ learning. Here, we tested whether stress may also bias the engagement of ‘cognitive’ and ‘habit’ systems during retrieval and thereby affect the nature of remembering. To this end, participants first performed a probabilistic classification learning task that can be solved by both the ‘cognitive’ and the ‘habit’ system. Twenty‐four hours...

We designed a novel ankle foot orthosis (AFO), namely, ideal training AFO (IT-AFO), with motion feedback on the hemiparetic lower limb to improve ambulation in individuals with stroke-related hemiplegia. We, t...

Abstract Purpose In this study, we investigated the effects of different concentration of propofol on cell viability of hippocampal neurons and explored the possible mechanism. Patients and methods Primary hippocampal neurons were cultured in vitro and treated with different concentration of propofol. MTT was used to examine the survival...

Abstract Purpose To provide the insight for postoperative hypotonia. Selective posterior rhizotomy (SPR) has been proved as a powerful tool for reducing spasticity. And also, its functional benefit and long-term effect are also well-known. Results The most considered side effect of this procedure is postoperative hypotonia. However, some...

Abstract In this case, we describe an evident hemorrhagic brainstem cavernous malformation successfully treated with a planned sequence of surgical evacuation of the hematoma followed by postoperative propranolol therapy. In contrast to common practice, the cavernoma itself was not resected. A nearly 3-year-old male presented with altered mental status, gait disturbance, and facial palsy. CT and MRI demonstrated a large acute pontine hematoma. A large nearby vein suggested cavernous...

Abstract Introduction Sphenoid dysplasia is a distinctive marker of neurofibromatosis 1. It is a malformation of the sphenoid bone characterized by an enlargement of the superior orbital fissure, through which the intracranial content herniates, leading to a facial disfigurement and exophthalmos and to a potential visual deterioration. Surgical treatment has the aim of separating the intracranial from the intraorbital space. ...

Abstract Esthesioneuroblastomas are uncommon tumors in pediatric patients and are typically treated with multimodal therapy. Changes in gross tumor quality and character in response to adjuvant treatment have not been clearly reported. We report the case of a 15-year-old female with a diagnosis of Kadish stage C esthesioneuroblastoma who was treated with neoadjuvant chemotherapy and surgical resection. The patient’s tumor demonstrated cytoreduction after chemotherapy but also...

Abstract Background The standard level for lesioning in a functional posterior rhizotomy (FPR) ranges from L2 to S1/S2. Lesioning of the S1 and S2 rootlets strongly correlates with a reduction in ankle spasticity. In the Japanese population, the S2 root often shows the highest dorsal root action potentials (DAPs) in the afferent fibers of the pudendal nerve and is not lesioned to preserve postoperative urinary function. Thus,...

Abstract Purpose Self-limited epilepsy with centrotemporal spikes, formerly called benign epilepsy with centrotemporal spikes, or rolandic epilepsy, is an age-related and well-defined epileptic syndrome. Since seizures associated with rolandic spikes are infrequent and usually occur during sleep, and repetitive or prolonged EEG recording for diagnostic purposes is not necessary for diagnosis, reports of ictal video-electroencephalographic...

Abstract Purpose Cerebral arteriovenous malformations are a common cause of pediatric intracranial hemorrhage. Often, small, superficial, lesions are treated surgically; however, more complex, deeper, eloquently located lesions portend higher-risk features and suffer from limitations in treatment. We sought to examine our institution’s experience with the natural history of these high-grade arteriovenous malformations to explore...

Abstract Fronto-ocular syndrome (FOS) is a rarely seen trigonocephaly syndrome in which metopic synostosis features are unique. This report presents six cases with FOS. Clinical manifestations mainly involve skull and facial findings. Nearly all patients have short/upslanted palpebral fissures, hypotelorism, narrow bifrontal area, philtrum anomalies, trigonocephaly, and metopic ridge. Epicanthal folds, hypoplastic supraorbital ridges, bulbous nasal tip, thin upper lip, mandible,...
