Objective: Burr hole evacuation of chronic subdural hematoma (cSDH) carries a relevant risk of recurrence. Recent evidence has suggested that endovascular middle meningeal artery (MMA) occlusion may help reduce this risk. However, endovascular MMA occlusion requires an additional intervention and is [for full text, please go to the a.m. URL]

Objective: Treatment of symptomatic trigeminal neuralgia (TN) in patients with neurological co-morbidites, e.g., multiple sclerosis remains challenging. Single-fraction Cyberknife radiosurgery (CK) and retrogasserian thermocoagulation (TC) are possible therapeutic options. We aimed to compare treatment[for full text, please go to the a.m. URL], 72.

Objective: A small number of complex intracranial aneurysms is not amenable to direct clipping strategies or endovascular treatment. In these patients, parent artery sacrifice and bypass revascularization for aneurysm occlusion is an option. There are three strategies for parent artery sacrifice: trapping,[for full text, please go to the a.m. URL], 72.

Objective: Cerebral inflammation and neuronal cell death play an important role in the development of brain injury after SAH. In previous studies we have demonstrated an array of SAH-induced inflammatory processes in the injured brain including: microglia accumulation, release of proinflammatory cytokines[for full text, please go to the a.m. URL], 68.

Objective: Neuroprotective treatment strategies aiming at interfering with either inflammation or cell death indicate the importance of these mechanisms in the development of brain injury after SAH. Our previous study showed microglia accumulation in the injured brain, releasing pro-inflammatory cytokines[for full text, please go to the a.m. URL], 67.

Objective: The most widely used neuro-stimulation treatment for drug-resistant epilepsy is Vagus Nerve Stimulation (VNS) Therapy®. Ictal tachycardia can be an indicator of a seizure, and if monitored, can be used to trigger an additional on-demand stimulation, which may positively influence seizure[for full text, please go to the a.m. URL], 66.

Objective: Inflammatory mechanisms have become an interesting target for analysis of early and delayed brain injury after subarachnoid hemorrhage (SAH). Our group could demonstrate a microglia activation in the central nervous system (CNS) after SAH, which peaks 7-14 days after the bleeding. To evaluate[for full text, please go to the a.m. URL], 64.

Objective: Inflammatory mechanisms in early and delayed brain injury after SAH have become an interesting research target. In previous studies we could show an intraparenchymal inflammatory (Iba-1-positive cells) response after SAH. This cellular infiltration started on day 4, peaked around day 14 after[for full text, please go to the a.m. URL], 63.

Objective: Inflammatory mechanisms have become an interesting target for early and delayed brain injury after acute subarachnoid hemorrhage (SAH). To functionally characterize pro-inflammatory and vasoconstrictive properties of cerebrospinal fluid after SAH in vivo and in vitro. Methods: 1.

Objective: To present the surgical experience of two national bypass centers in Germany and Finland using the Excimer Laser Assisted Nonocclusive Anastomosis (ELANA) technique in the treatment of complex intracranial lesions via revascularization strategies. Methods: Between 2002 and 2007, 56 consecutive[for full text, please go to the a.m. URL], 61. Jahrestagung der Deutschen Gesellschaft für Neurochirurgie (DGNC) im Rahmen der Neurowoche 2010
