🧠 Human Brain Matters 🧠 🧠 Brain Health Innovations Globally 🧠 Mayo Foundation for Medical Education and Research invented systems and methods of use for draining cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) from a brain or a spinal canal in a subject, for example, to treat hydrocephalus or other conditions. In some embodiments, the disclosure relates to a device comprising a flow controller positioned within a conduit that allows CSF to flow through the conduit from a first end to a second end. This may allow the CSF to drain, for example, from an intradural space (such as a thecal sac) into, for example, a paraspinal space, paraspinal vein or other venous space, or peritoneal cavity. A variety of methods may be used to hold or anchor the device in place, for example, an expansion apparatus. In some embodiments, the device can be implanted percutaneously at a location along or within a subject's spinal column, thus reducing the need for surgery, general anesthesia, and hospitalizations.

🔍 Neurosurgical Case Review 🧠 Dear colleagues, I am reaching out to share an interesting case that raises important diagnostic and therapeutic questions. A 37-year-old female presents with a long-standing history of headaches initially managed as migraines. However, recent MRI findings reveal a parasellar lesion with significant enhancement, extending into the left sphenoid bone. Given the imaging and clinical presentation, what are your thoughts on the potential type of aneurysm in this case? In your experience, how would you interpret the enhancement pattern of this lesion? Additionally, what would be your preferred treatment approach for this condition? Your expertise and experience in similar cases would be greatly appreciated, and I look forward to an engaging discussion. #Neurosurgery #CaseDiscussion #MedicalProfessionals #ProfessionalInsight

Is "T1 Hand" a Misnomer? A New Paradigm in Brachial Plexus Injury Classification An intriguing editorial in the Journal of Hand and Microsurgery challenges the long-held convention of using the term "T1 hand" for a specific brachial plexus injury. Prepare to have your assumptions challenged! 🤔 Why the Need for Change? * The "T1 Hand" Illusion: The term suggests only the T1 nerve root is functioning. However, C5 (35%) and C6 (3%) nerve roots often play a significant role and are intact in such T1 injuries rendering the term misleading. * The Median Nerve Takes Center Stage: The editorial highlights the crucial role of the intact median nerve (C6, C7, C8, T1) in these injuries. This nerve becomes the powerhouse for restoring essential hand functions: * Elbow Flexion: Powered by the C6, C7 fascicles of the Flexor Carpi Radialis (FCR) * Wrist Extension: Driven by the C6, C7 branches of the Pronator Teres (PT) nerve * Finger Extension: Enabled by the C8, T1 branches of the Flexor Digitorum Superficialis (FDS) ❓ Why Not "Ulnar Hand" or "Radial Hand"? The ulnar nerve (primarily C8) and radial nerve (weak contribution from the posterior division of the lower trunk) are not dominant enough to be a donor or warrant their names in the classification. 💡 Introducing the "Median Nerve Hand" This new term accurately reflects the pivotal role of the median nerve and provides a more precise and scientifically sound description of the injury besides a potential donor Join the Debate! This editorial ignites a crucial conversation about brachial plexus injury classification. Join deeper into the research and share your insights!

Movement disorders like essential tremor, Parkinson's disease, and dystonia affect people in more than one way. From disrupting daily activities to restraining them from following their dreams, movement conditions affect different people in different ways. Deep brain stimulation is an established treatment for people with movement conditions. It is a surgical process in which electrodes are inserted into some parts of the brain. These electrodes, commonly known as leads, produce electrical impulses that help control the abnormal activity of the brain. These electrical impulses also normalize the chemical components in the brain, which can lead to several conditions. At CARE Hospitals, we follow international treatment protocols to provide comprehensive care and treatment for brain-related disorders. Our well-trained medical team provides assistance and end-to-end care to help patients have a healthy life after the deep brain stimulation (DBS) surgery. To know more about DBS, visit https://lnkd.in/g35Mwnau To book an appointment, call 040 6810 6526 or visit www.carehospitals.com #CAREHospitals #TransformingHealthcare #DBS #DeepBrainStimulation #Awareness #TalkToAnExpert #NeuroSurgeon

In this video, we explore Cauda Equina Syndrome (CES) – a rare but serious condition affecting the nerves in the lower spine. C.E.S can cause significant and often sudden symptoms like lower back pain, sciatica, numbness in the “saddle” area, and issues with bladder, bowel, and sexual function. Recognizing the symptoms early and understanding the importance of timely medical intervention are crucial, as C.E.S. is considered a surgical emergency. Join us to learn more about the causes, symptoms, diagnosis, and treatment options for Cauda Equina Syndrome, and find out why it’s so important for healthcare providers and patients to be aware of this condition.
