Objective: Access to the pineal region has always represented a formidable challenge to the neurosurgeons. This study aims to explore the surgical techniques of the occipital transtentorial approach (OTA) without using brain retractor for excision of pineal region tumors based on the author’s experience and literature review. Methods: A retrospective analysis was performed of patients who underwent surgery for pineal tumors via OTA using dynamic retraction at our institution from 2018 to 2022. The clinical data, surgical procedure, and results were examined. Results: Twelve patients underwent surgery via OTA for treatment of pineal tumors. In all cases, it was feasible to complete surgery without using brain retractor. Gross total resection was achieved in 10 cases (83.3 %), while subtotal resection in 2 cases (16.7 %). There were no mortalities. Three patients presented with upper gaze palsy after surgery, 2 of them experienced complete recovery at the third month follow-up. Only one patient had residual neurologic deficit. Two patients reported transit diplopia after surgery. No postoperative hemianopsia was observed in this series. Conclusion: The occipital transtentorial approach is effective for the removal of tumors in the pineal region. Dynamic retraction with handheld instruments and meticulous dissection of arachnoid membrane around the deep veins can provide a sufficient working space.

U87 cells were treated with 1.25, 2.50, 5.00, 10.00, 20.00 μmol/L of CX-4945. U87 cells were divided into control group (without any treatment), sciadopitysin group (100.00 μmol/L of sciadopitysin), CX-4945 group (5.00 μmol/L of CX-4945), sciadopitysin combined with CX-4945 group (100.00 μmol/L of sciadopitysin plus 5.00 μmol/L of CX-4945). MTT method was used to detect cell viability, Caspase3/7 activity assay and Annexin Ⅴ/ PI double staining were used to detect cell apoptosis, and Western blotting was used to detect the expressions of Notch1 pathway related proteins ICN1, HES1 and DLL3. Results:The cell viabilities of U87 cells treated with 0, 0.01, 0.10, 1.00, 10.00, 100.00 μmol/L of sciadopitysin were (100.00±6.30) %, (112.02±7.63) %, (140.84±6.73) %, (113.92±7.92) %, (102.60±7.12) % and (73.16±2.74) % respectively, and there was a statistically significant difference ( F=55.21, P<0.001).

Glioblastoma is the most common malignant tumor of the brain. Despite advances in treatment, the prognosis for the condition has remained poor. Glioblastoma is often associated with peritumoral brain edema (PTBE), which can result in increased intracranial pressure and devastating neurological sequelae if left untreated. Surgery is the main treatment for glioblastoma, however current international surgical guidelines do not specify whether glioblastoma-induced PTBE tissue should be resected. In this study, we analyzed treatment outcomes of PTBE using surgical resection. We performed a retrospective analysis of 255 cases of glioblastoma between 2014 and 2016, and found that a significant proportion of patients had a degree of PTBE. We found that surgical resection led to reduction in midline shift that had resulted from edema, however, postoperative complications and KPS scores were not significantly different in the two conditions. We also observed a delay in glioblastoma recurrence in patients undergoing PTBE tissue resection vs patients without resection of PTBE tissue. Interestingly, there was an abnormal expression of tumor associated genes in PTBE, which has not been previously been found. Taken together, this study indicates that glioblastoma-induced PTBE should be investigated further particularly as the tumor microenvironment is a known therapeutic target and therefore interactions between the microenvironment and PTBE should be explored. This study also highlights the importance of resection of PTBE tissue to not only reduce the mechanical obstruction associated with edema but also to delay recurrence of glioblastoma.

BACKGROUND:Therapeutic hypothermia (TH) has been proven to be protective in ischemic stroke (IS) due to its anti-inflammatory capacity. Recently, the interferon regulatory factor 4 (IRF4) has been characterized as a central regulator of neuroinflammation in IS. Here we aim to determine whether IFR4 contributes to the neuroprotective effects of TH in IS.METHODS:In the present study, IRF4 knockout (IRF4-/-) and wild-type (IRF4+/+) mice were treated with or without TH after IS. Cerebral IRF4 expression, the production of pro-inflammatory and anti-inflammatory cytokines and macrophage polarization were determined at 8 hours after reperfusion. In addition, cerebral infarct volume and neurological function were evaluated at 7 days after IS.RESULTS:TH attenuates IS together with enhanced IRF4 expression as well as reduced production of pro-inflammatory cytokines. In addition, TH increased M2 macrophage polarization while inhibited M1 macrophage polarization. However, IRF4 knockout worsens neurological outcomes of stoke mice. The expression of pro-inflammatory cytokines were markedly increased in IRF4-/- mice as compared with IRF4+/+ mice at 8 h after stroke. Moreover, IRF4 knockout driven the macrophage polarization toward M1phenotype at 8 h after stroke. Most importantly, IRF4 knockout abolished the neuroprotective and anti-inflammatory effects of TH in IS.CONCLUSION:Together, we report for the first time that TH attenuates neuroinflammation following IS by modulating M1/M2 macrophage polarization through the upregulation of IRF4 expression.
Stroke is a disease that occurs due to a sudden interruption of the blood supply to the brain. It is a leading cause of death and disability worldwide. It is well-known that the immune system drives brain injury following an episode of ischemic stroke. The innate system and the adaptive system play distinct but synergistic roles following ischemia. The innate system can be activated by damage-associated molecular patterns (DAMPs), which are released from cells in the ischemic region. Damaged cells also release various other mediators that serve to increase inflammation and compromise the integrity of the blood-brain barrier (BBB). Within 24 h of an ischemic insult, the adaptive immune system is activated. This involves T cell and B cell-mediated inflammatory and humoral effects. These cells also stimulate the release of various interleukins and cytokines, which can modulate the inflammatory response. The adaptive immune system has been shown to contribute to a state of immunodepression following an ischemic episode, and this can increase the risk of infections. However, this phenomenon is equally important in preventing autoimmunity of the body to brain antigens that are released into the peripheral system as a result of BBB compromise. In this review, we highlight the key components of the adaptive immune system that are activated following cerebral ischemia.

BACKGROUND:Cavernous hemangioma of the orbit is a benign tumor mostly located behind the eye globe, but it rarely spread into the brain, which is called cerebral cavernous malformation as well, the lesion in the brain is irregular and enlarged blood. Here we report one particular case of craniorbital cavernous hemangioma.CASE PRESENTATION:A 53-year-old woman presented with exophthalmos of the right eye and reduced vision. Computerized tomographical (CT) scan showed osteolytic honeycomb radial changes of the outer plate of the skull. A magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) scan was performed to obtain further details. T1-weighted (T1W) imaging showed slightly low signal mixed with small patchy high signal. T2-weighted (T2W) imaging showed uneven high signal. There was obvious enhancement in the middle and no enhancement in the peripheral bars. A surgically manage was performed using a left frontotemporal approach, the tumor excised fully, and the histopathology results revealed a cavernous hemangioma. The patient recovered well in the follow-up. Post-operative CT scan identified the lesion was successfully resected, MRI scan also showed full resection and enhanced signal from the presence of fat.CONCLUSIONS:Craniorbital cavernous hemangioma is uncommon, however within the cranium, they can lead to numerous complications particularly if affecting the visual apparatus. it could be diagnosed by imaging, which CT scan shows osteolytic honeycomb radial changes of the outer plate of the skull, T1W imaging shows slightly low signal mixed with small patchy high signal, T2W imaging shows uneven high signal, it is obvious enhancement in the middle and no enhancement in the peripheral bars. The surgically manage is the ideally treatment when there are some symptoms.
Objective: To explore the clinical application of lumbar cerebrospinal fluid drainage (LCFD) during the perioperative period in the department of neurosurgery.Methods: We retrospectively analyzed the clinical data of 59 patients undergone LCFD during the perioperative period and summarize the indication and clinical experience.Results: LCFD could anticipate the effect of ventriculoperitoneal shunt before surgery, decrease intracranial pressure in surgery, which showed good curative effect in the aneurysmal subarachnoid hemorrhage, postoperative cerebrospinal fluid leakage, postoperative in-tracranial infection and subdural collection of fluid after craniotomy. No pneumocephalus, intracranial hemorrhage or intracranial infection occured. Paradoxical herniation was provoked in one patient with craniectomy and then recovered after treatment.Conclusion: The application of LCFD during the peri-operative period in the department of neurosurgery is effective and safe.
Subarachnoid hemorrhage (SAH) is a form of stroke associated with high mortality and morbidity. Despite advances in treatment for SAH, the prognosis remains poor. We have previously demonstrated that glycine, a non-essential amino acid is involved in neuroprotection following intracerebral hemorrhage via the Phosphatase and tensin homolog (PTEN)/protein kinase B (AKT) signaling pathway. However, whether it has a role in inducing neuroprotection in SAH is not known. The present study was designed to investigate the role of glycine in SAH. In this study, we show that glycine can reduce brain edema and protect neurons in SAH via a novel pathway. Following a hemorrhagic episode, there is evidence of downregulation of S473 phosphorylation of AKT (p-AKT), and this can be reversed with glycine treatment. We also found that administration of glycine can reduce neuronal cell death in SAH by activating the AKT pathway. Glycine was shown to upregulate miRNA-26b, which led to PTEN downregulation followed by AKT activation, resulting in inhibition of neuronal death. Inhibition of miRNA-26b, PTEN or AKT activation suppressed the neuroprotective effects of glycine. Glycine treatment also suppressed SAH-induced M1 microglial polarization and thereby inflammation. Taken together, we conclude that glycine has neuroprotective effects in SAH and is mediated by the miRNA-26b/PTEN/AKT signaling pathway, which may be a therapeutic target for treatment of SAH injury.
Hypoxic Ischemic Encephalopathy (HIE) is a type of neonatal brain injury, which occurs due to lack of supply and oxygen deprivation to the brain. It is associated with a high morbidity and mortality rate. There are several therapeutic strategies that can be used to improve outcomes in patients with HIE. These include cell therapies such as marrow mesenchymal stem cells (MSCs) and umbilical cord blood stem cells (UCBCs), which are being incorporated into the new protocols for the prevention of ischemic brain damage. The focus of this review is to discuss the mechanism of oxidative stress in HIE and summarize the current available treatments for HIE. We hope that a better understanding of the relationship between oxidative stress and HIE will provide new insights on the potential therapy of this devastating condition.

In order to improve medical students' cognition of neurosurgery specialty and clinical practice,and cultivate students' self-learning ability,the model of flipping classroom combined with problem based learning was applied in clinical teaching in our department.The experimental group adopted flip classroom combined with PBL which penetrated the pre-class teaching design,classroom activity design,after-class summary and teaching feedback,while the control group adopted the traditional teaching method.The evaluation results showed that the students in the experimental group had significantly higher scores in-class knowledge and examination results than those in the control group.In addition,students had a high degree of recognition and satisfaction with the newly combined teaching model.The combination of flipped classroom and PBL teaching method could make up their deficiency,complement each other to achieve the best clinical teaching effect and improve students comprehensive ability.Meanwhile it puts forward new requirements for students and teachers,during which teachers need to be fully prepared and update teaching concepts for the sake of fulfilling the mutual promotion of teaching and learning.
Objective To evaluate the curative effect of different surgical forms on the pituitary adenomas, and their indications, merits and demerits. Methods The clinical data of 116 patients with pituitary adenomas, who underwent surgery from February, 2011 to October, 2017, were analyzed retrospectively. Of 116 patients with pituitary adenomas, 85 were treated by transnasal transphenoidal microsurgery, 24 by microsurgery via pterional approach, 4 microsurgery via right supercillary arche key hole approach and 3 by microsurgery via longtudinal approach. Results The pituitary adenomas were totally resected in 92 patients, subtotally in 20, in great part in 3 and partly in 1. Conclusions The surgical outcomes are good in these 116 patients. The pituitary adenomas confined to the sella and parasellar regions should be removed by microsurgery through transnasal transsphenoidal approach. But the invasive pituitary tumors should be by individualized microsurgery selected according to their characteristics on the images.
