Neuronavigation for Intracranial Meningiomas
According to its location, the surgical treatment of intracranial meningioma can be of considerable challenge for the neurosurgeon. Image-guided surgery essencially provides intraoperative localization for dynamic navigation and, also, improves the surgical planning. The continuous development of neuroimaging and computated technology promotes continuous improvement of navigation techniques and...
متن کاملEpilepsy in primary intracranial tumors in a neurosurgical hospital in Enugu, South-East Nigeria.
BACKGROUND Seizures may be manifestation of intracranial tumor (IT) and demand thorough neurological evaluation. This paper examines epidemiology, lesion characteristics and outcome of seizures associated with primary IT. METHODS Retrospective analysis of medical records, computed tomography and magnetic resonance imaging of patients diagnosed with IT who presented with seizure from 2003 to 2...
متن کاملMR of pediatric intracranial meningiomas.
PURPOSE To assess MR and pathologic characteristics of childhood intracranial meningiomas, comparing the radiographic findings with those observed in adult intracranial meningiomas. METHODS Clinical records, MR and CT scans, and histology of eight children with intracranial meningiomas presenting for a period of 7.5 years were retrospectively reviewed. RESULTS Boys equaled girls but predomi...
متن کاملPreoperative embolization of intracranial meningiomas.
The goal of preoperative embolization of intracranial meningiomas is to facilitate their surgical removal by reducing tumor vascularity and decreasing blood loss during surgery. This study is based on personal experience with about 100 embolized meningiomas and on the experience of others. Embolization is performed during the same session as diagnostic angiography. The appropriate embolic mater...
متن کامل[Preoperative embolization of intracranial meningiomas].
The method and results for preoperative embolization are described in 36 cases with intracranial meningiomas. Embolization materials were injected through a transfemoral catheter, selectively placed in the external carotid artery. Chopped gelfoam served as embolization material in 29 pa tients and ivalon particles were used in 7 patients. In 19 out of 36 cases the feeding arteries arose ...
