Neuro-Ophthalmic Symptoms of Primary Headache Disorders: Why the Patient With Headache May Present to Neuro-Ophthalmology
Conclusions: Patients with primary headache disorders may experience a wide range of visual and ophthalmic symptoms. An understanding of the typical features of these disorders allows providers to help patients find appropriate treatment without unnecessary testing and to recognize when atypical presentations require additional evaluation.

Immune checkpoint inhibitors: what neuro-ophthalmologists need to know
Purpose of review Immune checkpoint inhibitors are currently an exceedingly powerful tool in the management of hitherto incurable malignancies and their use in clinical practice is expected to increase in the near future. The purpose of this review is to discuss the current medical uses of checkpoint inhibitors with a focus on their neuro-ophthalmic side-effects. Recent findings Immune checkpoint inhibitors have emerged as a promising breakthrough in the treatment of several tumor types. However, these targeted therapies can induce a wide range of immune-related ophthalmic and neuro-ophthalmic toxicities. It is import...

Inpatient and outpatient case prioritization for patients with neuro-oncologic disease amid the COVID-19 pandemic: general guidance for neuro-oncology practitioners from the AANS/CNS Tumor Section and Society for Neuro-Oncology
AbstractThe Coronavirus pandemic has created unprecedented strain on medical resources at health care institutions around the world. At many institutions, this has resulted in efforts to prioritize cases with an attempt to balance the acuity of medical needs with available resources. Here, we provide a framework for institutions and governments to help adjudicate treatment allocations to patients with neuro-oncologic disease.

Deep Learning and Transfer Learning for Optic Disc Laterality Detection: Implications for Machine Learning in Neuro-Ophthalmology
Conclusions: Small data sets can be used to develop high-performing DL systems for semantic labeling of neuro-ophthalmology images, specifically in distinguishing between right and left optic discs, even in the presence of neuro-ophthalmological pathologies. Although this may seem like an elementary task, this study demonstrates the power of transfer learning and provides an example of a DCNN that can help curate large medical image databases for machine-learning purposes and facilitate ophthalmologist workflow by automatically labeling images according to laterality.

Considerations for the Treatment of Inflammatory Neuro-Ophthalmologic Disorders During the COVID-19 Pandemic
Abstract: The initiation and continuation of immune-based therapies to treat and prevent complications of inflammatory neuro-ophthalmologic disorders during the 2019 novel coronavirus (COVID-19) pandemic is the subject of considerable debate. In each case, a treatment decision must be reached based on best clinical practices for the disorder, patient comorbidities, the current state of knowledge about the pathogenesis and infectivity of severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2), and the utilization of hospital and community resources. Unfortunately, the evidence needed to standardize the decision-makin...

The Impact of COVID-19 on Neuro-Ophthalmology Office Visits and Adoption of Telemedicine Services
Conclusions: In the practices studied, a lower volume of neuro-ophthalmic care was delivered during the early COVID-19 public health emergency than in the same period in 2019. The type of care shifted toward established patients with efferent diagnoses and the modality of care shifted toward telemedicine.

Impact of the COVID-19 pandemic on neuro-oncology outcomes
ConclusionsOur study showed that use of telehealth and selective alterations in neuro-oncological care during the COVID-19 pandemic did not lead to adverse patient outcomes. This suggests that adaptive physician-led changes were successful and may inform management during the ongoing pandemic, especially with the emergence of the Delta variant.

Neuroradiologic Imaging of Neurologic and Neuro-Ophthalmic Complications of Coronavirus-19 Infection
Conclusion: COVID-19 can cause central and peripheral nervous system disease, including along both the afferent and efferent components of visual axis. Manifestations of disease and long-term sequela continue to be studied and described. Familiarity with the wide variety of neurologic, ophthalmic, and neuroradiologic presentations can promote prompt and appropriate treatment and continue building a framework to understand the underlying mechanism of disease.

A practical guide to neuro-oncology fellowship
AbstractNeuro-oncology is a growing, interdisciplinary field at the intersection of neurology and oncology, devoted to the care of patients with central nervous system tumors and neurologic complications of cancer, and collaboratively interfacing with neurosurgery, neuropathology, medical oncology and radiation oncology. There is increasing trainee interest in the field of neuro-oncology and an increasing number of fellowship training programs, attracting applicants with backgrounds in neurology, neurosurgery and medical oncology. The present guide aims to provide some general recommendations for residents and fellows to h...

Cranial sonolucent prosthesis: a window of opportunity for neuro-oncology (and neuro-surgery)
ConclusionsThis report provides the first proof of concept for a potential breakthrough in the management of neuro-oncological patients. Indeed, through the implantation of an artificial acoustic window, the road is set to employ US both for a more dynamic long-term follow-up, and for US-guided therapeutic applications.

Transcranial magnetic stimulation for post-operative neurorehabilitation in neuro-oncology: a review of the literature and future directions
ConclusionsAlthough data are overall limited, both safety and effectiveness have been demonstrated for the use of rTMS for neurorehabilitation in the neuro-oncologic population. More randomized controlled trials and specific comparisons of contralateral versus ipsilateral rTMS protocols should be explored. Further work may also focus on individualized, patient-specific TMS treatment protocols for optimal functional recovery.

The landscape of brain tumor mimics in neuro-oncology practice
DiscussionBrain tumor mimics represent a small but important subset of the neuro-oncology referrals. Vascular, inflammatory, and demyelinating etiologies represent two-thirds of cases. Recognizing the clinical, radiologic and laboratory characteristics of such entities may improve resource utilization and prevent unnecessary as well as potentially harmful diagnostic and therapeutic interventions.

Efferent neuro-ophthalmic complications of coronavirus disease 2019
We describe syndromes affecting ocular motility and elaborate on mechanisms of disease, including para-infectious inflammation, hypercoagulability, endothelial damage, and direct neurotropic viral invasion. Despite global vaccination programs, COVID-19 continues to pose an international threat that may rarely result in diplopia or nystagmus. Recent findings Efferent complications include cranial nerve palsies leading to diplopia, either isolated or in association with Miller Fisher syndrome. Nystagmus has been observed in the setting of hemorrhagic acute necrotizing encephalopathy and brainstem infarcts, and opsoclo...
