Orbitozygomatic craniotomy. Technical note.
The orbitozygomatic approach provides wide, multidirectional access to the anterior and middle cranial fossae, as well as to the upper third of the posterior fossa and clivus. The authors describe technical details of the surgical approach as it has evolved over 3.5 years of experience in 83 consecutive cases. This modified technique eliminates the need for bone reconstruction of the orbital wa...
متن کاملSecuring dual ipsilateral leads through a single burr hole in deep brain stimulation surgery: technical note.
Deep brain stimulation (DBS) surgery typically involves placement of a single lead through a burr hole, either unilaterally or bilaterally. Rare indications, however, call for placement of 2 ipsilateral leads. To date, there have been no technical descriptions of how best to secure dual ipsilateral leads to the skull. We describe a method of placing and securing 2 ipsilateral DBS leads through ...
متن کاملNeurosurgical burr hole placement using the Microsoft HoloLens
PURPOSE: Tracked navigation systems are generally impractical in bedside neurosurgical procedures, such as a twist-drill crainiostomy for the removal of a subdural hematoma, where the use of navigation could optimize the placement of the drill in relation to the underlying fluid. We use the Microsoft HoloLens to display a hologram floating in the patient’s head to mark a burr hole on the skull....
متن کاملBurr Hole Washout versus Craniotomy for Chronic Subdural Hematoma: Patient Outcome and Cost Analysis
Chronic subdural hematomas (CSDH), which are frequently encountered in neurosurgical practice, are, in the majority of cases, ideally treated with surgical drainage. Despite this common practice, there is still controversy surrounding the best surgical procedure. With lack of clear evidence of a superior technique, surgeons are free to base the decision on other factors that are not related to ...
متن کاملStrategy for salvage pedicle screw placement: A technical note
BACKGROUND Salvage surgery for failed lumbar spine fusion with a loosened pedicle screw is challenging. In general, the strategy includes replacement with larger and longer pedicle screws, augmentation with polymethylmethacrylate cement or hydroxyapatite granules, and extension of fused segments. The purpose of this study is to introduce a new technique for pedicle screw replacement after faile...
