[Az arteria meningea media embolisatio szerepe a krónikus subduralis haematoma kezelési algoritmusában, legújabb evidenciák és saját tapasztalataink]. / Az arteria meningea media embolisatio szerepe a krónikus subduralis haematoma kezelési algoritmusában, legújabb evidenciák és saját tapasztalataink.

Chronic subdural hematoma is one of the most common diseases requiring a neurosurgical operation that affect elderly and fragile patients. In addition to standard neurosurgical operations (trepanation and craniotomy), embolization of the meningeal artery media is an alternative solution. Several review aerticles have confirmed the very high rate of success and safety of the endovascular treatment. We present the technical details and results of our 10 consecutive selective media meningeal artery embolization procedures for residual chronic subdural hematomas. Our interventions were performed without complications and all resulted in complete recovery. 

Different Kinetics of Serum ADAMTS13, GDF-15, and Neutrophil Gelatinase-Associated Lipocalin in the Early Phase of Aneurysmal Subarachnoid Hemorrhage.

Growth differentiation factor 15 (GDF-15), neutrophil gelatinase-associated lipocalin (NGAL), and ADAMTS13 have previously been implicated in the pathophysiological processes of SAH. In the present study, we aim to examine their role in the early period of SAH and their relationship to primary and secondary outcomes. Serum samples were collected at five time periods after SAH (at 24 h (D1), at 72 h (D3), at 120 h (D5), at 168 h (D7) and at 216 h (D9), post-admission) and) were measured by using MILLIPLEX Map Human Cardiovascular Disease (CVD) Magnetic Bead Panel 2. We included 150 patients with SAH and 30 healthy controls. GDF-15 levels at D1 to D9 were significantly associated with a 3-month unfavorable outcome. Based on the ROC analysis, in patients with a good clinical grade at admission (WFNS I-III), the GDF-15 value measured at time point D3 predicted a 3-month unfavorable outcome (cut-off value: 3.97 ng/mL, AUC:0.833, 95%CI: 0.728-0.938, sensitivity:73.7%, specificity:82.6%, p < 0.001). Univariate binary logistic regression analysis showed that serum NGAL levels at D1-D5 and ADAMTS13 levels at D7-D9 were associated with MVS following SAH. GDF-15 is an early indicator of a poor 3-month functional outcome even in patients with mild clinical conditions at admission.

[Endovascular treatment of complex vascular pathology in neck and brain region. Case report]. / Komplex nyaki és agyi érpatológia endovascularis kezelése.

Authors present complex multistage endovascular treatment of female patient with an intradural infiltrative, inoperable tumor of the glomus jugulare, a stenosis of the internal carotid artery and an aneurysm of middle cerebri artery. In the literature our case report is the first announcement in which three pathology coexist ipsilateral in one patient and the patient has been treated step by step by endovascular procedures. Beside the endovascular treatment steps they display glomus jugulare tumor's symptoms, staging, treatment options and also the current treatment guidelines of internal carotid artery stenosis and intracranial aneurysms.
