Author : Zonaid Kabir, Momotaj Sohely, Atikur Rahman, Sayed Maruf Ur Rahman, Ferdous Jahan and KM Salma |
Abstract | Full Text |
Abstract :Background: Meningiomas are typically benign brain tumors, and their precise characterization is vital for optimal patient man-
agement. The comparison between Magnetic Resonance Spectroscopy (MRS) and histopathology in patients with meningioma is a pivotal area of research in the field of neuroimaging and neuropathology.
Aim of the study: The study aimed to compare between magnetic resonance spectroscopy findings and histopathological results in
patients with meningioma. |

Non-hepatic Hyperammonemia with Loading Dose of Perampanel in a Case of CNS Lupus Presenting with Non-Convulsive Status Epilepticus |
Author : Rahul Ghiya, Sanghita Layek and A Shobana |
Abstract | Full Text |
Abstract :Hyperammonemia manifests clinically as mild cognitive impairment to coma and even death. It happens due to both hepatic meta-
bolic disorders or non-hepatic causes. Perampanel is an antiepileptic drug metabolized by hepatic enzymes.We here report a patient of CNS lupus who presented with NCSE and developed hyperammonemia after receiving the loading dose of perampanel. No definite mechanism has been able to explain the correlation between perampanel and hyperammonemia. |

Kissing Carotids in Retropharyngeal Space –Anatomical Variant with Potentially Threat |
Author : Monali Chaturvedi, Aldrin Anthony, Siddharth Maheshwari and Arvind Arya |
Abstract | Full Text |
Abstract :The term kissing carotids refers to an anatomical variation
where the internal carotid arteries (ICA) are tortuous, elongated,
and are close together at the midline. In order to alert the clinicians of this important but under-noticed anatomical diversity, we describe a case showing incidental aberrant retropharyngeal course of bilateral ICA |

Author : Mohanty SL, Selvakumar CJ, Sadeeshkumar V and Shobana N |
Abstract | Full Text |
Abstract :Background: Mucormycosis has emerged as an opportunistic infection during COVID-19 pandemic. It mostly affects the paranasal sinus, orbits, skin, gastrointestinal tract and brain. Intracranial spread has a poor prognosis and high fatality. It has been termed as Rhino-orbital-cerebral mucormycosis.
Objective: To study about the incidence of neurological features of mucormycosis in COVID-19 patients in tertiary care hospital |

Use of Plant Derivatives A New Approach to Enhance Peripheral Nerve Regeneration |
Author : Julio Ochoa-Peña |
Abstract | Full Text |
Abstract :Throughout history the use of plants has played a role in the
development of medical treatments. As science and technology
have advanced, the routes of administration, extraction processes,
and research involving plant derivatives have improved, leading to
the adoption of the term Flavonoids to refer to a secondary metabolite in plants, which varies according to the species or fruit.
Plants and their derivatives have been extensively investigated, revealing benefits in the treatment of a broad spectrum of diseases,including anticoagulants warfarin, headache management ergotamine, antiarrhythmics (digoxin), among others. |

Abstract | Full Text |
Abstract :Although microvascular decompression (MVD) for trigeminal neuralgia is an established fundamental treatment, ap-
proximately 4-5% of cases recur annually despite treatment. Compared with typical trigeminal neuralgia (TTN), atypical facial pain (AFP) with no triggers and persistent pain is reported to recur more often. The ideal treatment for AFP has not yet been established. Internal neurolysis (IN), in which the trigeminal nerve is physically divided longitudinally, has shown good results in cases of recurrence without vascular compression. In this study, we evaluated the usefulness of IN for treating AFP by analyzing patient outcomes in cases in which IN was administered. |
