Comparison of the Image-to-Patient Registration Performance of a Novel Augmented Reality–Based and a State-of-the-Art Infrared Optical Neuronavigation System
BACKGROUND AND OBJECTIVES: Augmented reality–based neuronavigation systems (AR-NS) have been proposed as a potential addition to regular neuronavigation systems, such as optical or electromagnetic systems. Accurate image-to-patient regis...

Neoadjuvant Treatment of BRAFV600E Papillary Craniopharyngiomas: A Case Series
BACKGROUND AND OBJECTIVES: Craniopharyngiomas are locally invasive and frequently recurrent tumors of the sellar/suprasellar region. Historically, the mainstay of treatment has been surgical resection. The papillary type of craniopharyng...

Predictors of Insufficient Awakening During Awake Surgery: A Single-Center Retrospective Study
BACKGROUND AND OBJECTIVES: Awake surgery (AS) is widely performed for the resection of brain tumors and for epilepsy surgery. However, a non-negligible proportion of patients experience insufficient intraoperative awakening, leading to i...

Validation of Magnetic Resonance Brain Thermometry and Bioheat Modeling of Brain Temperature Using Direct Measurements With an Implanted Fiber Optic Probe
BACKGROUND AND OBJECTIVES: Brain temperature is a promising marker of prognosis after injury. Although magnetic resonance (MR) thermometry and biophysical modeling can approximate absolute temperature, limited validation has been perform...

Surgical Implications of Anatomic Relationships Among Foramen Ovale, Foramen Spinosum, and VI Cranial Nerve in the Anterior Transpetrosal Approach
BACKGROUND AND OBJECTIVE: The anterior transpetrosal approach (ATA) is a valuable option for accessing the petroclival region, although it can be associated with considerable morbidity. The objective of the study was to provide a detaile...

The Modified Sparing Binostril Endoscopic Endonasal Approach Combined With an Algorithm-Based Reconstruction Strategy: Surgical and Functional Outcomes in Sellar and Suprasellar Lesions
BACKGROUND AND OBJECTIVES: Conventional binostril endoscopic endonasal approaches (EEAs) provide optimal surgical ergonomics but are often associated with sinonasal morbidity. Conversely, mononostril approaches preserve mucosal integrity...

SurgiCorr: A Physics-Based Computational Framework for Patient-Specific Surgical Corridor Planning in Brain Tumor Surgery
BACKGROUND AND OBJECTIVES: Transcortical corridor selection is guided by anatomic intuition and neuronavigation, with no quantitative tool to estimate retraction injury to brain tissue. Such injury depends on corridor-specific tissue pro...

Rod-Suspended “Hammock” Expanded Polytetrafluoroethylene Reconstruction for Posterolateral Chest Wall Defects After Multilevel En Bloc Spondylectomy
BACKGROUND AND OBJECTIVES: Multilevel en bloc spondylectomy (MES) for thoracic spinal tumors occasionally requires combined resection of ribs and parietal pleura, resulting in a large posterolateral chest wall defect adjacent to posterio...
