Abstract

Background: The COVID-19 pandemic and its impact on hospitals' activity and organization has imposed a vast change in standard neurosurgical oncology practice to accommodate for shifting resources. Aims: This investigation aims to analyse the nationwide capability in reorganizing the surgical neuro-oncological activity during the COVID-19 pandemic to evaluate whether COVID-19-pandemic influenced the surgical management in these patients. Method: A web-based dataset model organized by the Italian Neurosurgical Society (SINCh) was sent to all the Italian neurosurgical departments in May 2021, requesting to report the types and numbers of surgical procedures performed in the pre-pandemic period (from March 9th 2019 to March 9th 2020) compared to the pandemic period (from March 10th 2020 to March 10th 2021). Results: This multicentre investigation included the surgical activity of 35 Italian Neurosurgical Departments in a pre-pandemic year versus a pandemic year. During the COVID period, 699 fewer neuro-oncological patients were operated on than in the pre-COVID period. We noted a slight increase in urgency and a more severe decrease in elective and benign pathology. None of these differences was statistically significant. Surgically treated patients who tested positive for SARS-CoV-2 were 36, of which 11 died. Death was found to be COVID-related only in 2 cases. Conclusion: The reorganization of the Italian Neurosurgical Departments was able to guarantee a redistribution of the CNS tumors during the inter-pandemic periods, demonstrating that patients even in the pandemic era could be treated without compromising the efficacy and safety of the surgical procedure.

Abstract

Background: Hemangioblastomas (HBs) are rare lesions accounting for 1%–5% of all spinal cord tumors, and are mostly associated with Von Hippel-Lindau (VHL) syndrome. Localization in the cauda equina is uncommon. Aim: In this manuscript, we aimed to describe a rare case of sporadic intradural extramedullary HB of the cauda equina and present a literature review. Mathods: A systematic research was performed on PubMed, MEDLINE, and Google Scholar, using the keywords “spinal HB” and “cauda equina tumors.” The previous literature is integrated by the description of the present case. A 49-year-old female presented in August 2020 to our institution with a magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) which showed an intradural mass at L1/2 level and angiography that showing a nidus of serpiginous vessels inside the lesion. Symptoms were right sciatica and paresthesia in right L5 radicular dermatome for more than 3 months. Neurological examination revealed claudicatio spinalis and hypoesthesia on right L5 dermatome and weakness of right anterior tibialis muscle. Microsurgical en bloc resection of lesion was performed with adjuvant neurophysiological intraoperative monitoring. The histological examination provided the diagnosis of HB. Results: After surgery, symptoms and neurological impairment gradually improved. Postoperative MRI showed no residual tumor. Conclusions: Although intradural extramedullary HB of the cauda equina without VHL syndrome is a rare pathological entity, this diagnosis must be taken in consideration when a mass affects cauda equina. Preoperative embolization is an option to minimize intraoperative bleeding. Radiosurgery seems to prevent recurrences when the tumor is not completely excised. A complete surgical removal of the lesion is usually possible and it leads to a low likelihood of recurrence.

Abstract

Bruno da Longobucco (1200–1286) was born at the turn of the 13th Century in Longobucco (Calabria, Italy), at that time named Longoburgo. He was the first academic surgeon of the Middle Ages, a period when surgery was disregarded by mainstream physicians and was the practice of barbers, charlatans and phlebotomists. After training at the medical school of Salerno and the University of Boulogne, he was one of the founders of the University of Padua and became the first Professor of Surgery. His books Chirurgia Magna and Chirurgia Parva, were ones of the most disseminated surgical texts of the Middle Ages and it is argued helped surgery regain its reputation. Despite his importance to late medieval period, he has been essentially overlooked in the records of the history of surgery. Currently, there are no articles in English about his life indexed on PubMed, Scopus or Embase. One solitary article on Bruno's life and influence was published in 1960s in a small journal in Italian, but this is no longer active and there is no electronic means to access the original article. The aim of this article is to provide education and rediscovery of the impact of this critical figure, his works and his historic role to the development and renaissance of surgery for contemporary surgeons.

Abstract

During craniotomy, hemostatic materials such as oxidized cellulose and cotton pads, commonly used to control bleeding, may cause a granulomatous reaction that may produce space-occupying mass lesions termed textiloma (or gossypiboma). We present a 46-year-old female who underwent a right frontotemporal craniotomy and surgical removal of intraparenchymal cerebral hemorrhage, and who developed a textiloma during the postoperative period causing seizures. Granulomatous reactions due to hemostatic agents have been reported experimentally, as well as after cranial and spinal operations. We emphasize that although it is rare, an adverse reaction such as a postoperative textiloma due to hemostatic material and subsequent granuloma formation can result in a false image of rebleeding, tumor recurrence, radiation necrosis, or postoperative abscess, depending on the particular clinical history of each patient.

Abstract

Abstract Background The surgical spinal degenerative pathology mainly concerns the herniated intervertebral disks. Surgery is indicated when the pain becomes chronic and intense, and when motor signs appear. The results are positive in about 90% of cases, leading to the solution of the problem. However, an estimated percentage of 4% to 20% reported residual pain and postural instability after the surgical treatment of discectomy. Method We have examined a sample of patients, retrospectively registered, undergoing surgical treatment for degenerative lumbar disease. Some of them developed postural instability. They were subjected to cycles of postural gymnastics. Postural gymnastics has proved to be a tool capable of solving unstable post-surgical posture. It included an exercise of breathing, one or two of muscular distension, one of muscular reinforcement, and one of postural correction. We used an evaluation form we created in agreement with the physiatrist for postural exercises that was based on some basic parameters such as muscle and respiratory function. At each cycle, a score was attributed to the performance of muscular and respiratory exercise to evaluate the function and therefore the degree of instability (1–3 = mild, 4–7 = medium, 8–10 = severe). Results Results were satisfactory, with return to normal posture. The improvement of postural instability has been demonstrated both by the score of the evaluation forms that have highlighted the transition from a state of severe intensity to one of normality and by a clinical aspect, concerning the static and dynamic posture. Conclusions The postural instability has a multifactorial genesis, and different mechanisms are involved: the vertebral bone structures and the pelvis, the paraspinal muscular structures, and the nerve structures. These structures are altered after surgery due to predisposing factors, and for the action of conditions acquired as obesity.

Abstract

Background Surgical strategies are being adapted to face the COVID‐19 pandemic. Recommendations on the management of acute appendicitis have been based on expert opinion, but very little evidence is available. This study addressed that dearth with a snapshot of worldwide approaches to appendicitis. Methods The Association of Italian Surgeons in Europe designed an online survey to assess the current attitude of surgeons globally regarding the management of patients with acute appendicitis during the pandemic. Questions were divided into baseline information, hospital organization and screening, personal protective equipment, management and surgical approach, and patient presentation before versus during the pandemic. Results Of 744 answers, 709 (from 66 countries) were complete and were included in the analysis. Most hospitals were treating both patients with and those without COVID. There was variation in screening indications and modality used, with chest X‐ray plus molecular testing (PCR) being the commonest (19·8 per cent). Conservative management of complicated and uncomplicated appendicitis was used by 6·6 and 2·4 per cent respectively before, but 23·7 and 5·3 per cent, during the pandemic (both P, The COVID‐19 pandemic required reorganization of surgical services, affecting patients with common surgical diseases including acute appendicitis. No evidence is available on the topic. This study found global variation in screening policies, use of personal protective equipment and intraoperative directives. There has been increased adoption of non‐operative management and open appendicectomy. Hands off

Abstract

Cerebral cavernous angioma or cavernoma is a benign vascular malformation, usually asymptomatic. It is infrequent and often its discovery is incidental, a so-called incidentaloma. However, these lesions can be symptomatic, causing headaches, epilepsy, cerebral hemorrhage and other neurological signs depending on the brain area involved. Frontal localization is responsible for psychiatric disorders, particularly the prefrontal region, leading to prefrontal syndrome, a condition common in all frontal lobe tumors. Psychopathological syndrome can be depression-type, pseudodepression syndrome or maniac-type, pseudomaniac syndrome. Surgical treatment of lesions like this may not always be possible due to their location in eloquent areas. In this study, we describe an unusual association of migraine-like headache, epilepsy and frontal lobe pseudodepression late-onset syndrome in the same patient. We have considered this case interesting mainly for the rarity of both a headache with migraine features and for the late onset of pseudodepression syndrome. Pathophysiology underlying migraine-like headache and that concerning the late-onset pseudodepression frontal lobe syndrome seems to be unclear. This case leads to further hypotheses about the mechanisms responsible for headache syndromes and psychopathological disorders, in the specific case when caused by a cerebral frontal lobe lesion.

Abstract

Background Von Hippel-Lindau (VHL) disease is an autosomal dominant condition characterized by formation of multiple benign and malignant tumors. In this disease supratentorial lesions are rare and no falcine meningioma has been previously reported. Differential diagnosis is very difficult and the histopathological examination is the definitive method for diagnosis. Case description A patient with VHL underwent a suboccipital craniotomy for removal of cerebellar hemangioblastoma and after 2 years magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) showed an iperintense solid mass located at posterior part of the falx. Histological diagnosis revealed meningioma. Conclusion The only case in the literature of falcine meningioma in a patient with Von Hippel-Lindau disease, discovered during radiological follow-up, is described and a surgical management is proposed.

Abstract

Highlights • In literature there are still many controversies about the management of multiple aneurysms. • A series of 19 cases of multiple aneurysms for a total of 44 aneurysms, of which 43 surgically treated, is described. • Surgical management of multiple aneurysms of is proposed., Introduction Multiple aneurysms are present in 10% in patients with intracranial aneurysms. An analysis of the literature, focusing on the different treatments, and a description of our experience are performed. Presentation of case series A surgical series with multiple intracranial aneurysms from 2000 to 2016, describing demographic, radiological and clinical features, is showed. In all patients a pre- and post-operative angiography was performed and surgical treatment, based on accurate indications, provided good outcomes in most cases. Discussion Successful treatment of multiple intracranial aneurysms can be achieved by an interdisciplinary approach and the main factors influencing surgical treatment are discussed. Conclusions Surgery always remains a definitive treatment and, considering intrinsic lesional features and patient’s characteristics, it offers good results for intracranial multiple aneurysms.

Abstract

Insular gliomas are heterogeneous lesions whose management presents multiple challenges for their tendency to affect young patients in good neurological and cognitive conditions, their deep anatomic location and proximity with critical functional and vascular structures. The appropriate management of insular gliomas requires a multidisciplinary evidence-centred teamwork grounded on the best anatomic, neurophysiological and oncological knowledge. The present study provides a reappraisal of the management of insular gliomas based on a systematic review of the literature with the aim of guiding clinicians in the management of such tumors. A systematic review of the literature from the Medline, Embase and Cochrane Central databases was performed. From 2006 to 2016, all articles meeting specific inclusion criteria were included. The present work summarizes the most relevant evidence about insular gliomas management. The anatomy and physiology of the insula, the new WHO 2016 classification and clinico-radiological presentation of insular gliomas are reviewed. Surgical pearls of insular gliomas resection as well as oncologic and functional outcomes after insular gliomas treatment are discussed. Management of insular gliomas remains challenging despite improvement in surgical and oncological techniques. However, the literature review supports a growing evidence that recent developments in the multidisciplinary care account for constant improvements of survival and quality of life.

Abstract

Background The scleroderma is a complex autoimmune collagen disorder that can affect many organs simultaneously, as it occurs in the systemic sclerosis (SS), or only the skin, as it occurs in the localized scleroderma (LS). The neurological presentation is extremely uncommon, and even more uncommon are the symptoms of the scleroderma in the cerebellum. Case description We report the case of a 56-year-old male with cerebellar lesions mimicking a brain abscess. After surgical excision, the histopathological diagnosis deposed for an ischemic necrosis caused by a vasculopathy. All the bacteriological and viral exams were negative, whereas the rheumatologic tests were compatible with the scleroderma pattern. Conclusion Up to now, the literature has described only 5 cases of scleroderma in the posterior cranial fossa. The authors report a case of SS causing colliquative necrosis in the cerebellum. Pathogenetic mechanisms, clinical aspects, and radiological features are discussed along with the pertinent literature.

Abstract

Falcine meningiomas, defined as a meningiomas arising from the falx not involving the superior sagittal sinus, account for 9% of all intracranial meningiomas. We analyzed 95 patients with falcine meningiomas who underwent surgical removal of their lesion at our institution between 2001 and 2014. Surgical management of these patients, focusing on anatomical and clinical features is described. Thus, based on our series, a surgical algorithm, classifying the falcine meningioma into four types, according to location at the falx, and using an ipsilateral interhemispheric approach in supine or prone position, is described. The median length of follow-up was 7.1years (range 1.6-12.3years). Approximately one-third of all patients was asymptomatic, headaches occurred in 27 patients, seizures in 14 cases, and lower-extremity weakness in 9 cases. In this series, the middle third of the falx was the most frequently involved site (55,78%), while the anterior third (26,31%) and the posterior type (17,89%) were less common. The transitional and meningothelial types occurred in 69 of patients and a high grade in only two patients. Compared with previous series in literature, there was no mortality and Gross Total Resection was obtained in 83 (87,5%) cases. Three of 95 patients experienced new or worsened neurological deficits after surgery while other complications were relatively in only 6 cases. This study presents our good results about removal of the tumor while preserving major cortical veins and the sinus using advanced microsurgical tools.

Abstract

Pituitary metastases are rare and metastatic pituitary lesions secondary of renal carcinoma are extremely rare. These lesions can be mistaken for pituitary adenomas and diagnosis can be very difficult. We report a 67-year-old Italian female complained of headache and visual impairment resulting from a sellar lesion with suprasellar extension. A transsphenoidal biopsy was performed and histological examination revealed a metastasis of renal cell carcinoma. Few casesof this type of pituitary metastasis is described and every treatment is palliative for the life of such patient. We updateliterature and discuss the clinical and radiological features and treatment of this case.

Abstract

Introduction: Aneurysms in the vertebrobasilar system are rare and in the distal segment of the posterior inferior cerebellar artery they are even less frequent. Giant aneurysms are also rare in the posterior cranial fossa. Giant aneurysms of the distal posterior inferior cerebellar artery generally can have mainly compressive effects on the adjacent structures and they can be mistaken for tumors. Case presentation: We report the case of a 74-year-old Italian woman who presented with a complaint of dizziness. Her dizziness was found to be a result of aneurysmal dilatation arising from the distal segment of the right posterior inferior cerebellar artery. A mid-line suboccipital craniotomy was performed, and the aneurysm was clipped without post-operative deficits and with improvement in the patient’s dizziness. In our present report, we also review the literature and discuss our case with regard to the clinical and radiological features and surgical procedure performed. Conclusion: To the best of our knowledge, few cases of this type of aneurysm have been described in the literature. Our patient had a good outcome after surgical treatment.
