External lumbar drainage (ELD) has gained wide popularity in neurosurgical practice since its’ first introduction by F. Vourc’h in 1963. It manifests encouraging prospects in control of refractory intracranial...
Giant colloid cysts (size > 3 cm) are very rare with only few reported cases in the literature.
Patients who have a cerebral arteriovenous malformation (cAVMs) in the motor cortex can have displaced function. The finding and its relationship to recovery from surgery is not known.
Mild cognitive impairment (MCI) is a common non-motor symptom of early Parkinson’s disease (PD), but the neural mechanisms underlying it remain poorly understood. The aim of the present study was to investigat...
This research paper will discuss the surgical management and possible mechanisms, as well as enlighten other features which can explain meningioma and astrocytoma simultaneously occurrences including statistic...
L4–L5 traumatic spondylolisthesis has been rarely reported in the literature. At lumbar spine level traumatic dislocation lesion realizes “traumatic spondylolisthesis or traumatic bilateral lumbar facet locked...
A variety of cystic lesions may develop in spinal canal. These cysts can be divided into intramedullary, intradural, extradural, cervical, thoracic, lumbar, and sacral cysts according to anatomical presentatio...
Tumor-like demyelinating lesion is a rare form of IP, often indistinguishable from brain tumors on CT or MR imaging.
Cerebral vasospasm (CVS) is a common and severe complication of aneurysmal subarachnoid hemorrhage (aSAH). Despite the improvement in treatment of aSAH, CVS complicating aSAH has remained the main cause of dea...
The editors of Chinese Neurosurgical Journal would like to thank all of our reviewers who have contributed to the journal in volume 1 (2015).
Although primary hypophysitis is not uncommon, a granulomatous etiology of hypophysitis is relatively rare. Radiological and diagnostic characteristics of several isolated cases have been described to date. Ho...
Primary spinal cord oligodendroglioma is extremely rare. In an extensive review of this disease, 53 cases were reported. Furthermore, the authors summarize the characteristics of the primary spinal cord oligod...
Epidural localization of myeloid leukaemia is rarely reported. Spinal cord compression as an initial presentation of acute myeloid leukaemia is extremely rare. This is a report of a 17-year-old black boy who p...
Vancomycin-resistant Enterococcus faecium ventriculitis is one of the most severe events in postneurosurgical intracranial infections. There are no guidelines recommending an appropriate treatment before.
Neurosurgery in China has made great progress. The aim of this study was to analyze neurosurgical publications by Chinese authors using the Web of Science database as a way to illustrate the current state of n...
Accurately mapping the pyramidal tracts preoperatively and intraoperatively is the primary concern when operating on cavernous malformations (CMS) in the basal ganglia. We have conducted new methods for preope...
We introduce a new catheter-based minimally invasive approach via frontal tuber for removing hypertensive intraventricular hemorrhage(IVH), and further compare its treatment efficacy with conventional external...
Coexistent of paradoxical herniation and subdural hygroma (SDG) is very rare, confusing symptoms may mislead the therapies.
Chorionic carcinoma is a highly malignant gynecological tumor, frequently originating from trophoblastic cells in the uterus after fertilization. Early erosion releases cancerous cells into the circulation to ...
Blood blister-like aneurysms (BBLAs) are aneurysms from the non-branching sites of the internal carotid artery (ICA). Though rare lesions, they pose a high risk of intraoperative aneurysmal rupture. Definite t...
Occipital arteriovenous malformations (AVMs) are still one of neurosurgery’s most intriguing and challenging pathologies. In this study, we reviewed our series of patients with occipital AVMs admitted in Beiji...
Gliomas are the most common primary tumors of the central nervous system, around 70 % of the malignant brain tumors are gliomas. In the NCCN Guideline Ver.1 2015, the assessment before systemic treatment, trea...
Previous studies reported conflicting results about the risk of developing glioma and different body mass index. So we decided to execute a meta-analysis to solve the dispute.
Schwannomas of the 6th nerve are extremely rare.Only 22 cases of intracranial schwannomas of the 6th cranial nerve pathologically confirmed have been reported.
It has been demonstrated that the incidence of trigeminal neuralgia in elderly patients is higher and thus, neurosurgeons often encounter elderly patients with this disorder. However, for those with poor basic...
The authors present a case of cervical myelopathy and radiculopathy in the setting of multiple Klippel-Feil syndrome abnormalities treated surgically with a single-level C3–C4 anterior cervical discectomy and ...
Understanding a process from shallow to deep is necessary for controlling and even curing diseases. The history of diagnosis and treatment of brainstem gliomas vividly reflects this process. The development of...
Parkinson’s disease (PD) is a common neurodegenerative disease. Most studies have found that the histopathological lesion is not only localized at the extrapyramidal area (basal ganglia) but also at the cortex...
Chronic subdural hematoma is a common neurosurgical condition especially in the aging population. Burr hole for drainage is an effective treatment, yet recurrence is reported at 8 to 22 % worldwide, and 1-year...
Microsurgical treatment is well established as the preferred strategy for definitive obliteration of middle cerebral artery (MCA) aneurysms. However, increasing reports on the feasibility and efficacy of endov...
