Incidence and Outcomes of Aneurysmal Subarachnoid Hemorrhage: A Multicenter Retrospective Registry-based Descriptive Trial in Kobe City
Neurol Med Chir (Tokyo). 2023 Aug 30. doi: 10.2176/jns-nmc.2023-0090. Online ahead of print.ABSTRACTThe current study aims to evaluate the incidence and results of aneurysmal subarachnoid hemorrhage (aSAH) throughout Kobe City. Based on a multicenter retrospective registry-based descriptive trial involving all 13 primary stroke centers in Kobe City, patients with aSAH treated between October 2017 and September 2019 were studied. A total of 334 patients were included, with an estimated age-adjusted incidence of 11.12 per 100,000 person-years. Curative treatment was given to 94% of patients, with endovascular treatment (51%)...

Neuronavigated foraminoplasty, shunt removal, and endoscopic third ventriculostomy in a 54-year-old patient with third shunt malfunction episode: how I do it
ConclusionETV shows promise as a viable treatment option for shunt malfunction in noncommunicating obstructive hydrocephalic patients. Its potential to avoid VPS-related complications, preserve physiological CSF circulation, and provide an alternative drainage pathway warrants further investigation.

Heidelberg ETV score to assess success of ETV in patients with occlusive hydrocephalus: a retrospective single-center study
AbstractIn aqueduct stenosis, pressure difference below and above level of obstruction leads to bulging of third ventricular floor (TVF) and lamina terminalis (LT). Endoscopic third ventriculocisternostomy (ETV) is the standard treatment in these patients. We tried to assess success of ETV depending on those two radiological changes in aqueduct stenosis. We implemented “Heidelberg ETV score” retrospectively to assess the state of TVF as well as LT in same manner in midsagittal MR image. Every patient had a preoperative, direct, 3-months and one-year postoperative score from -2 to + 2. We correlated the scores to cl...

CSF hypersecretion versus impaired CSF absorption in posthemorrhagic hydrocephalus: a systematic review
ConclusionsThe pathological CSF accumulation in PHH likely arises from a combination of increased CSF secretion and impaired CSF absorption, which may manifest at different time scales following a hemorrhagic event. Emergent evidence on increased CSF secretion by the choroid plexus may herald a paradigm shift in our understanding of PHH.

Programmable (proSA ®) vs. fixed (SHUNTASSISTANT®) gravitational valves in pediatric patients with hydrocephalus: a 16-year retrospective single-center comparative study with biomechanical analysis
ConclusionOur comparative study between proSA ® and SA® valves in pediatric HC demonstrated that both valves showed similar survival rates, regardless of etiology but only with young age at implantation. The programmability may be beneficial in preventing sequelae of chronic overdrainage but does not reduce need for valve revision and proSA® valve should be considered in selected cases in growing children older than 2 years.

Distal ventriculoperitoneal shunt catheter migration into the pulmonary artery: a rare complication
We report a case of a 60-year-old male who underwent ventriculoperitoneal shunt implantation for the treatment of post-traumatic hydrocephalus. Thirteen months post- surgery, after an initial clinical improvement, the patient manifested gait and cognitive disorders. Chest X-rays and computed tomography revealed that the distal shunt catheter had migrated into the pulmonary artery. The catheter was removed by reopening the previous retroauricular incision followed by manual traction, without incidents. A new peritoneal catheter was implanted with immediate clinical improvement and no further complications two years after th...

Heterozygous FOXJ1 Mutations Cause Incomplete Ependymal Cell Differentiation and Communicating Hydrocephalus
Cell Mol Neurobiol. 2023 Aug 24. doi: 10.1007/s10571-023-01398-6. Online ahead of print.ABSTRACTHeterozygous mutations affecting FOXJ1, a transcription factor governing multiciliated cell development, have been associated with obstructive hydrocephalus in humans. However, factors that disrupt multiciliated ependymal cell function often cause communicating hydrocephalus, raising questions about whether FOXJ1 mutations cause hydrocephalus primarily by blocking cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) flow or by different mechanisms. Here, we show that heterozygous FOXJ1 mutations are also associated with communicating hydrocephalus in huma...
