Brainstem cavernoma

Happy Valentine's Day🩷
Here’s another example of cavernomas in cranial nerves, this time in the trigeminal nerve. Pathology extended from the intrapontine to cisternal portions of CN5, out to Meckel's cave, making it different from a purely peritrigeminal pontine cavernoma….

Basal ganglia (caudate, putamen, and globus pallidus) cavernoma surgical approach overview from sketch concept, exploring various anatomical sections and compositions, to rendering the anatomy, craniotomies, approach trajectories & targets #MedEd Oren Gottfried, MD Slava Bobrov

Happy to contribute to a large multicenter effort out now in a 2-part publication Stroke AHA/ASA where we define advanced quantitative imaging biomarkers of iron deposition and vascular permeability in symptomatic cavernoma patients. New feasible endpoints for future trials!

Halfway through the week and have clipped 3 aneurysms, resected 3 tumors in addition to a contralateral interhemispheric transfalcine approach for ventricular cavernoma. Elegant approach with minimal brain transection. Great things happening at Penn Neurosurgery Jan-Karl Burkhardt, MD Visish M. Srinivasan, MD

Con tutta la storia di Ndicka mi è rivenuto in mente, rimanendo in tema difensori, che uno dei momenti più tristi da tifoso della Roma è stato quando fu diagnosticato il cavernoma a Leo Castan, l’ho vissuta proprio male.
Lui avrà sempre un posto speciale nei miei ricordi.

I am pleased to announce the title of the 2024 Gazi Yasargil Lecture: “Skiing and the Art of Cavernoma Surgery.” It’s a fun talk – I hope you can join me at the AANS on Saturday, 1:30pm at the Cerebrovascular Section meeting.

I like to call it the tree and the sun

🩸Suggests cavernoma

Can be a cause of epilepsy and hemorrhage

Thank you Cameron McDougall and Seattle Science Foundation TV for inviting me to join you on your Cerebrovascular Q&A. You can catch the lecture on Cavernoma Taxonomy here...

What are the different surgical options that could be considered &advantages/disadvantages?

🔊Valdig Group study ‼️
➡️Abdominal surgery & portal cavernoma:
❌high-risk of bleeding🩸
❌high-risk of portal hypertension complications
✅same risk of grade ≥3 postop. complication & death

⚠️when ascites
⚠️when non-wall, non-cholecystectomy surgery

Laure Elkrief presents AFEF meeting the results of the Valdig Group study on abdominal surgery in patients with cavernoma

⚠️Risk factors for complication after surgery:
📛History of ascites
📛Abdominal surgery other than cholecystectomy or wall surgery

#MorcosChallenge In this pt w/ a pontine cavernoma that goes below the level of the IAC, do you think this could be resected completely using a Kawase approach? Why/why not? Eva Wu Neurosurgical Atlas Medical Clinical Case BNTA @neurosurgeryof CV Section @neuroangioA @neurosurgery101

Ella es Caro Larrosa. 23 años y es de Paraná. El 7/9 le sacaron un cavernoma bulbar del cerebelo y sigue internada en el Htal Italiano x complicaciones. Ella NO TIENE OBRA SOCIAL. Cada día de internacion sigue sumando. Necesitamos 15 millones de pesos y cada granito de arena suma

As today is cavernoma awareness day, we want to mention 2 important charities that raise awareness for this condition, support those living with cavernoma and their families, and fight for a cure for cavernoma: Cavernoma Alliance UK (CAUK) Cavernoma Society
