TL;DR: The high efficacy and tolerability of cabergoline in the treatment of pathological hyperprolactinemia is confirmed, in a large-scale retrospective study, leaving few patients with unacceptable side effects or inadequate clinical response.
Short communication Visual sensations produced by optic nerve stimulation using an implanted self-sizing spiral cuff electrode
Claude Veraart,Christian Raftopoulos,J. Thomas Mortimer,Jean Delbeke,Delphine Pins,Géraldine Michaux,Annick Vanlierde,S. Parrini,Marie-Chantal Wanet-Defalque +8 more
TL;DR: In this paper, a blind volunteer with retinitis pigmentosa was chronically implanted with a self-sizing spiral cuff electrode around an optic nerve, which produced localized visual sensations that were broadly distributed throughout the visual field.

Visual sensations produced by optic nerve stimulation using an implanted self-sizing spiral cuff electrode.
Claude Veraart,Christian Raftopoulos,J.T. Mortimer,Jean Delbeke,Delphine Pins,Ginette Michaux,Annick Vanlierde,S. Parrini,Mc. Wanetdefalque +8 more
TL;DR: The results demonstrate the potential for constructing a visual prosthesis, based on electrical stimulation of the optic nerve, for blind subjects who have intact retinal ganglion cells.
Journal ArticleDOI
Factors predicting relapse of nonfunctioning pituitary macroadenomas after neurosurgery: a study of 142 patients
Sophie Brochier,Françoise Galland,Michèle Kujas,Fabrice Parker,Stephan Gaillard,Christian Raftopoulos,Jacques Young,Orsalia Alexopoulou,Dominique Maiter,Philippe Chanson +9 more
TL;DR: Immunohistochemical features such as positive immunostaining for several hormones or for hormones other than gonadotropins could help to predict undesirable outcomes in NFMAs, which frequently recur/regrow after initial surgery.
Journal ArticleDOI
Prospective analysis of aneurysm treatment in a series of 103 consecutive patients when endovascular embolization is considered the first option
Christian Raftopoulos,P. Mathurin,Dutcho Boscherini,Rudolf F. Billa,Michel Van Boven,Philippe Hantson +5 more
TL;DR: Surgical clipping can offer better results than CE, even for more complex aneurysms of the anterior circulation, especially for those involving the middle cerebral artery cases.
