Jan 6th, 2022 - To characterize a suggestive prenatal imaging pattern of Aicardi syndrome using ultrasound and MR imaging. Based on a retrospective international series of Aicardi syndrome cases from tertiary centers encountered over a 20-year period (2000-2020),...

Jan 4th, 2022 - To assess the frequency of symptomatic structural lesions and the diagnostic yield of conventional brain MRI in cluster headache (CH). In contrast to migraine, brain MRI is recommended in patients with CH to exclude potential mimics. The prevalenc...

Dec 8th, 2021 - Intracranial Arachnoid cysts (AC) are stable cerebral spinal fluid (CSF)-filled sacs that can rarely undergo progressive shrinkage or disappearance throughout life. In this manuscript, we present a case of post-traumatic complete resolution of an ...

Dec 6th, 2021 - We designed this study to share our management experiences on spinal extradural arachnoid cysts (SEACs) to add more to the body of evidence for their treatment. We retrospectively reviewed 41 patients who underwent microsurgery for thoracolumbar S...
