Cortical blindness and brain stem ischemia following burr hole evacuation of chronic subdural hematoma
Authors: Panchariya Piyush , Lakhe Prashant , Goswami Prakash , Acharya Jigmisha
Published: September 2024

Background: Chronic SDH is commonly performed in neurosurgery. The surgery usually has good surgical outcomes. There have been few cases reports reporting cortical blindness and brain stem stroke as a dreaded complication of the same.
Materials and methods: It is a retrospective, observational, descriptive type of study with analysis of patients operated for chronic SDH from March 2021 to March 2023 and reported an untoward outcome of vision loss or brainstem stroke following surgery. The cases have been reported with possible aetiology underlying the unfavourable outcome. The literature was reviewed for similar cases and a comparative analysis was done with possible hypotheses for the outcome.
Observation and results: An overall 5 such cases have been reported during this period. Two cases of bilateral and three cases of unilateral chronic SDH have been reported. Out of five, two cases did not have a preceding history of trauma probably spontaneous in nature. Possibility of PRES in one case, transtentorial herniation, thrombosis, and spontaneous intracranial hypotension with kinking of vessels have been proposed. Further studies are required to address this untoward complication following evacuation of chronic subdural hematoma.
Conclusions: A high index of suspicion, prompt recognition and management of reversible causes, slow decompression of hematoma especially in bilateral cases, and good hydration to prevent the possibility of thrombosis are key to preventing such complications. Also keeping the possibility in mind add on better counselling and prognostication of case in pre-surgery period.

Published: September 2024

Background: Neurosurgery's challenging area involves addressing intracranial aneurysms, given the high morbidity and mortality rates associated with them. Safe clipping, a technique that involves the intraoperative temporary occlusion of the arterial supply, is generally used. However, a focused review on the evolution of temporary clipping in intracranial aneurysms hasn't been previously carried out.
Methods: We performed a comprehensive literature search on PubMed Medline and Google Scholar, using the combination of terms: [Temporary clip* AND (Cerebral OR Intracranial) Aneurysm].
Results: From an initial pool of 579 results, we excluded unrelated papers, narrowing it down to 25 relevant studies. These ranged from retrospective and prospective studies on the outcome favorability or radiological evidence, to analyses on potential independent prognostic factors, and articles related to the history and evolution of temporary clipping.
Conclusion: Temporary arterial occlusion in aneurysm surgery has evolved significantly since its inception in the early 20th century, marked by innovations in instruments and temporary clips. Despite these advancements, the utility and safety of temporary clips continue to be topics of discussion, particularly due to concerns regarding possible complications and their influence on long-term results.
Dual trained endovascular neurosurgeons. A boon or a necessity?
Authors: Singh Deepak Kumar , Raghu Ram Raj , Singh Neha , Kumar Rakesh , Chand Vipin
Published: September 2024

Objective: The aim of this research study is to emphasize the necessity to train neurosurgeons in both endovascular procedures as well as microsurgical clipping in the management of intracranial vascular lesions.
Material and methods: In this study, the retrospective data collected from our institution from 2021-2022 is presented. Here we present six cases of intracranial vascular lesions that were initially planned for endovascular procedure and later ended up being managed by microsurgical clipping/ excision. Written informed consent was obtained from relevant individuals for publishing the data.
Results: All six patients recovered well in the postoperative period. Therefore, a neurosurgeon who is adequately trained in vascular neurosurgery along with endovascular tutoring shall have an extensive grasp of cerebral vascular diseases and all the available treatment alternatives. Since we live in a result-oriented scenario - patients shall be best served by a hybrid neurosurgeon in the long run.
Conclusion: This study provides the intra-operative difficulties faced during endovascular management of intracranial vascular lesions. These difficulties require real-time management. Any delay in the process of intra-procedural decision-making making, the non-availability of trained neurosurgeons can have devastating consequences. Hence, this study further fortifies the want for a dual-trained neurosurgeon to handle cerebrovascular lesions.

Authors: Arias Mariño Daniela , Rojas Urrea Alejandro , García Agudelo Lorena , Garzon Peñuela Angie Liseth
Published: September 2024

Intradiploic epidermoid cysts are rare intracranial tumours, with an estimated prevalence of less than 1% of all cranial tumours. Most of the intradiploic cysts are asymptomatic; however, clinical findings consist of headache and tenderness. We presented a case of a 21-year-old female who consulted the neurosurgery department for a period of three years about a mass in the occipital region, which was growing gradually. The patient was treated with surgical removal without complications. Intradiploic epidermoid cysts are infrequent intracranial tumours that primarily affect adults. This tumour has a wide spectrum of symptoms. Radiologic findings on computed tomography (CT) and magnetic resonance imaging (MR) are the cornerstone for the diagnosis, which is finally confirmed by histopathological studies. Surgical management with a complete resection of the cyst and capsule is the most commonly used treatment.
Cerebral hydatid cyst masquerading as multiple cystic metastases
Authors: Tariq Areeba , Talib Muhammad Maskoob , Huseyn Manzar
Published: September 2024

Hydatid disease is caused by encysted larvae of the dog tapeworm Echinococcus granulosus. Cerebral hydatidosis is a rare central nervous system larval infection affecting approximately 2–3% of patients. CT and MRI scans of the boy, described in our case,  showed multiple cystic areas. Total surgical extirpation is the therapeutic approach, emphasizing the importance of early diagnosis for a favourable prognosis. Recurrence and unfavourable outcomes are commonly associated with incomplete excision and surgical rupture, necessitating careful removal to prevent anaphylaxis and widespread infection. Dowling's technique is the preferred surgical approach and postoperatively, patients are administered antiparasitic drugs such as Albendazole or Mebendazole for 6–12 months in most cases, with doses ranging from 10-15mg/kg in divided doses. The results of pharmacological treatment vary across series, with response rates ranging from 43.5 to 80%. Early diagnosis significantly contributes to a favourable prognosis by preventing neurological consequences.

Published: September 2024

Background: Spinal meningiomas, originating from arachnoid cap cells, primarily manifest in the intradural extramedullary region, commonly favouring the thoracic area, albeit occurrences in the cervical, lumbar, and exceptionally rare sacral regions have been noted. Among tumours in this location, meningiomas, neurofibromas, and schwannomas prevail. MRI serves as the preferred imaging modality due to its ability to often reveal the distinctive dural origin of meningiomas. Microdissection and resection stand as the established gold standard for treating spinal meningiomas.
Materials and methods: This study, conducted at the Sheri-Kashmir Institute of Medical Sciences Soura Srinagar in Jammu and Kashmir, India, spanned approximately 10 years from August 2009 to July 2017 retrospectively and August 2017 to July 2019 prospectively. It encompassed patients diagnosed with spinal meningiomas, evaluated through comprehensive history-taking, clinical examinations, biochemical assessments, and radiological studies. Surgical interventions predominantly involved laminectomy, aiming for gross total or subtotal tumour resection using a posterior approach. Postoperative complications, such as CSF leaks and wound infections, were monitored, and the duration of hospitalization was recorded from the surgery date to discharge.
Results: The results showed a mean patient age of 44 years, with the youngest being 16 years old and the eldest 70 years old. Most patients (40.90%) fell within the 41-50 age group, with 22.72% in the 51-60 age bracket. Among the 22 patients, females comprised 68.18%, resulting in a female-to-male ratio of 2.1:1. The most prevalent symptoms were pain (77%) and weakness (63%), followed by bladder dysfunction (27%). Tumors were primarily located in the thoracic region (68%), with other occurrences in the cervicothoracic (18%), thoracolumbar (9%), and cervical (4.54%) areas. Posterior surgical approaches were utilized in 91% of cases, with the remaining 9% employing an anterior approach. Tumour sizes varied, with 22.72% smaller than 2 cm and 77.27% larger, having a mean greatest diameter of 2.9 cm. Postoperative complications were observed in 9.09% of patients, with CSF leaks and wound infections being the major concerns, while 91% experienced no complications.
Conclusions: In conclusion, this study illustrates spinal meningiomas as slow-growing tumors with a subtle onset, typically appearing in the 4th to 5th decade, and exhibiting a female predominance with a 2:1 ratio. Pain emerges as the most prevalent presenting symptom. Surgery stands as the primary treatment, albeit accompanied by potential postoperative complications such as wound infections, CSF leaks, or bowel and bladder dysfunctions. Adjuvant radiotherapy might be considered for recurrent or advanced disease to offer palliative relief.

Authors: Alaraji Zainab A. , Atallah Oday , Alaraji Zinah A. , Al-Badri Sajjad G. , Ismail Mustafa , Hoz Samer S
Published: September 2024

This paper explores the potential impact of magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) on patients' psychological states, focusing on reported mood changes post-procedure. Factors influencing the psychological state during an MRI, including claustrophobia, noise, scan duration, and fear of the unknown, are discussed. We also draw parallels with darkness therapy, a stress and depression management technique, due to the similar environment. Notably, a subset of patients reported transient improvement in depressive symptoms following an MRI, suggesting a need for further research. The paper underscores the necessity for rigorous scientific exploration of these observations to validate them and better inform patients about possible mood alterations post-MRI.

Published: September 2024

Nanoneurosurgery, introduced in 2003, aims to revolutionize neurosurgery using nanotechnology. Despite early excitement, its development has been slower than expected. The field encompasses various neurosurgical domains, utilizing advanced technologies like femtosecond laser and nanoparticle-enhanced stem cell therapies. However, challenges such as diagnostic limitations, nanoparticle toxicity, and ethical issues have impeded progress. Recent trends show a decline in research activity, suggesting a need for more interdisciplinary approaches and practical applications. The field remains distant from fully integrating nanotechnology, indicating that its future impact might be indirect and gradual. Continued research and collaboration are essential for realizing its potential.

Published: September 2024

Intramedullary tuberculoma (IMT) is a rare form of spinal tuberculosis. The incidence of this disease is 01-02/100,000 patients (1). Occurs by hematogenous dissemination from focus elsewhere in the body. Magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) is helpful for diagnosing IMT at an early stage and it is also very useful in follow-up. CSF PCR studies are confirmatory. Histopathology is the Gold Standard. AKT drug therapy is the mainstay of treatment for IMT, with surgery indicated in select patients. Here, we describe a female patient with long-segment dorsal intramedullary tuberculoma with compressive myelopathy treated with surgery and put on AKT who improved clinically.

experiência religiosa em Charles Taylor
Authors: Gomes Felipe Henrique Canaval , Furlan Reinaldo
Published: September 2024

O artigo dialoga com o conceito de experiência religiosa em Charles Taylor. Nosso propósito é tanto confrontar a noção emergente de experiência religiosa da obra de William James com a concepção que Taylor formula, quanto inserir a noção tayloriana no contexto maior de sua obra. Como veremos, a experiência religiosa em Taylor não é pensada apenas como uma experiência místico-religiosa, conforme a abordagem de James, mas também, como uma experiência ético-moral. A partir da noção fenomenológica de mundo, traçamos a compreensão básica da crença no mundo pré-moderno, seguida das transformações modernas ocasionadas pelo desencantamento do mundo e pela Reforma Protestante. Em seguida, focamos a revolução cultural individualista do século XX, pondo em perspectiva os impactos na compreensão da crença. Para Taylor, embora a experiência religiosa tenha sido compreendida cada vez mais como uma experiência individual, o conteúdo dessa experiência ainda é coletivo.

Published: September 2024

Electric vehicle charging stations are generally composed of AC-to-DC and DC-to-DC converters. Many topologies of converters, used for both on-board and off-board EV chargers, have been proposed by the researchers. The off-board Vienna rectifier EV charger is the focus of our work. This EV charger should be controlled for adjusting the system outputs at desired references. Among several control methods existing in the literature, the voltage-oriented and direct power control techniques are selected to control the Vienna rectifier. The aim of this paper is to present a comparative analysis for an Off-board Vienna rectifier controlled individually by the previous mentioned control techniques in order to charge the battery of an electric vehicle from the national grid. A three constant current values of 60A, 80A, and 100A, are imposed to the EV battery as reference currents using PI controllers. The comparison is based on the waveforms of three-phase grid voltages and currents, battery voltages, state of the charge of the battery, and the elapsed time of simulation. The total harmonic distortion (THD) of one phase of the input current at the case of 100A is measured using the fast Fourier transform tool of Matlab/Simulink software which employed for modeling and performing the simulation.

Controlled dc motors are nonlinear systems, thatshow a nonlinear action in their operation including, sub-harmonics and chaos when they work outside their designspecifications. This nonlinearity forces the motor changingits normal operation to a random-like behaviour; In thispaper, the nonlinear dynamics of DC motors areinvestigated. It is shown that the concept of the Poincarémap approach and the monodromy matrix method can besuccessfully applied to determine the stability of DC motors
Evaluation of Welding Current Impact on Residual Stresses Status in Ship-Building Steel Weldments Using Barkhausen Noise
Authors: Ali R. Altaweel  , Mohamed M. Blaow
Published: September 2024

The paper intends to determine the relationship between heat input and the residual stresses distribution in shipbuilding steel weldments using the Magnetic Barkhausen Noise (MBN) technique. The rate of fusion during welding was controlled by amount and time of fusion for a given weld bead width. Barkhausen noise measurements were performed parallel to the weld bead at the back of the plates welded using variable welding currents along the line that crosses the weld bead. The heat affected zones were differentiated by a variation in MBN peak height. The high welding current was characterized by high MBN amplitude compared with the medium and the low currents. The results showed that the heat affected zone was narrower with high welding current and increases with decreasing current. The results indicate that residual stresses introduced in steel by welding could be mapped nondestructively by magnetic Barkhausen noise

Procedure of Combustion Chamber Airflow Rate Distribution
Authors: Saleh B. Mohamed  , Mohameed H. Elhsnawi
Published: September 2024

Combustion systems are the least amenable of all gas turbine components to analyze. Among the literature overview made, it was realized that even though significant steps have been made in improving the combustor design procedure via the use of computational fluid dynamics, much of the design process still relies upon empirically derived rules. These rules include the calculation procedure of the required airflow rate by each zone of the combustion chamber to attain a suitable gas temperature, high values of combustion efficiency, low concentrations of pollutant species together with the determination of liner geometry that matches the chamber required performance goals with the constraints imposed by the engine dimensions [1,2,3, and 4]. The main target of this research work is to identify the proper procedure to distribute a predetermined airflow rate in annular type combustor and to generalize an effective calculation method that formulate and solve the problems in as much simplified and accurate manner as possible. The combustor dimensions and airflow rates in each zone is found in reference [5] and shown in Figure 1. It is designed with central vaporizing unit to deliver 516.3 KW of power with a geometrical constraint of 142 mm & 140 mm overall length and casing diameter, respectively, while the airflow rate is 0.8 kg/sec and the fuel flow rate is 0.012 kg/sec [5, 6].

Rotating spiral contacting is a novel technologythat allows an excellent control of contacting between two ormore phases flowing countercurrently through spiralchannel. This method solve the issues can arise from mixingfluids by using the centrifugal effect to enforce the fluids toflow side by side in a narrow channel in parallel layerswithout mixing. In this work the wide channel model wasused to identify the design parameters for a researchprototype rotating spiral contactor, and examine theperformance within a wide range of operating conditions.The study included air – water system and started byselecting the optimum liquid layer thickness,  , that lead tooptimum specific throughput,*N  , and the appropriatemolar flow rate ratio, n q for absorption process. Drawingthe design envelope for pressure difference as a function ofchannel height was the best way of selecting the appropriatechannel height, h , and also study the effect of usingdifferent values of spiral angle, R sin . This later allowof selecting the suitable value of the distance betweenchannel revolutions, t . Finally, this work presents theeffect of using wide range of solute values, f ' on thepressure difference, phases flow rates, and the rotation ratefor fixed design parameters of a research prototype.

Implant replacement or revision surgery in thehuman body ranks among the most demanding surgeries that orthopedic surgeons encounter in modern medicine.The removal of the hardened bone cement which securesthe implant within the bone, is the cause of a lengthyoperation. Often the use of sharp surgical instruments,ultrasonic devices etc. are employed, however all thesemethods are time-consuming and present variouscomplications.This paper describes the use of mechanical vibrations at afrequency of 40 Hz, on samples of implants anchored inanimal (pig) bone cavities with bone cement. Using a rotaryhammer drill equipped with a specially designed adaptor, toengage the tip of the implant, good results were obtained.The implant with its cement mantle was removed in a shorttime not exceeding 22 seconds.The procedure appears to be safe and is accomplished ina short time, commensurate with what is required inrevision surgery.
