Psychosurgery

Psychosurgery, the surgical alteration or permanent removal of brain tissue to alleviate severe psychological conditions, stands as one of the most radical and controversial treatments in the history of mental health care. Its development and application have evolved significantly, marked by dramatic shifts in scientific understanding and ethical perspectives.
Historical Development of Psychosurgery
In the 1930s, Portuguese neurologist Antonio Egas Moniz introduced a surgical procedure designed...

Cerebrovascular surgery increasingly uses endovascular techniques, but controversies remain regarding long-term outcomes of microsurgical versus endovascular treatments for specific conditions. This review examines optimal approaches for complex neurovascular cases.

Area of Science:

  • Neurosurgery
  • Vascular Surgery
  • Interventional Neurology

Background:

  • Cerebrovascular surgery has seen a significant shift from traditional microsurgical techniques to endovascular approaches.
  • Despite this shift, persistent controversies exist regarding the long-term efficacy and outcomes of both surgical modalities.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To provide a comprehensive outlook on the optimal treatment modality for controversial aspects in cerebrovascular surgery.
  • To analyze current evidence and expert opinion on challenging neurovascular conditions.

Main Methods:

  • Review of current literature and clinical guidelines.
  • Discussion of specific controversial areas including Moyamoya disease aneurysms, PICA aneurysms, intracranial aneurysms with collateral flow, revascularization surgery, dural arteriovenous fistulas, and management of intracranial hemorrhage and mechanical thrombectomy.

Comprehensive Endovascular and Open Surgical Management of Cerebral Arteriovenous Malformations

Published on: October 20, 2017

Main Results:

  • The shift towards endovascular treatment is evident, but microsurgical options remain crucial for specific pathologies.
  • Evidence-based recommendations are presented for managing complex cases like PICA VA junction aneurysms and dural AVFs.
  • Optimal timing for intervention in intracranial hemorrhage evacuation and mechanical thrombectomy is discussed.

Conclusions:

  • A balanced approach considering both microsurgical and endovascular techniques is essential for optimal cerebrovascular patient care.
  • Further research is needed to resolve long-term outcome discrepancies between treatment modalities.
  • Personalized treatment strategies are paramount in addressing the complexities of cerebrovascular surgery.
