Journal ArticleDOI

Validation of CT-MRI fusion for intraoperative assessment of stereotactic accuracy in DBS surgery

TL;DR: Improved lead placement accuracy was associated with frame‐based stereotaxy with the head of the bed at 0° compared with frameless stereotactic with the heads of the beds at 30°, and the discrepancy between coordinates determined intraoperatively by CT–MRI fusion and postoperative MRI can be accounted for by inherent measurement error.
Journal ArticleDOI

Comparison of outcomes between a less experienced surgeon using a fully endoscopic technique and a very experienced surgeon using a microscopic transsphenoidal technique for pituitary adenoma

TL;DR: The study raises the provocative notion that certain advantages afforded by the fully endoscopic technique may impact the learning curve in pituitary surgery for nonfunctioning adenomas.
Journal ArticleDOI

Parkinson’s disease outcomes after intraoperative CT-guided “asleep” deep brain stimulation in the globus pallidus internus

TL;DR: Globus pallidus internus leads placed with the patient under general anesthesia by using direct anatomical targeting resulted in significantly improved outcomes as measured by the improvement in the off-medication motor score at 6 months after surgery.
Journal ArticleDOI

Predictors of sinonasal quality of life and nasal morbidity after fully endoscopic transsphenoidal surgery

TL;DR: Sinusasal QOL following endoscopic pituitary surgery reaches a nadir at 2 weeks and recovers by 3 months postoperatively, and overall health status are well correlated in the postoperative period, suggesting the important influence of sinonasalQOL on the patient experience.
Journal ArticleDOI

Clinical outcomes following awake and asleep deep brain stimulation for Parkinson disease.

TL;DR: This study prospectively compares functional outcomes of patients treated using the awake and the asleep techniques and suggests the feasibility of "asleep" DBS-performing DBS surgery without test stimulation is questionable.
