TL;DR: This large series of SEH demonstrates that rapid diagnosis and emergency surgical treatment maximize neurological recovery, however, patients with complete neurological lesions or long-standing compression can improve substantially with surgery.

TL;DR: This modified classification system for vascular lesions of the spinal cord, based on pathophysiology, neuroimaging features, intraoperative observations, and neuroanatomy, offers several advantages: first, it includes all surgical vascular lesions that affect the spinal cords, and second, it guides treatment by classifying lesions based on location and Pathophysiology.

TL;DR: Although BSCM surgery has significant associated risks, including perioperative complications, new neurological deficits, and death, most patients have favorable outcomes and should be considered in patients with accessible lesions.

TL;DR: For recurrent glioblastomas, an improvement in overall survival can be attained beyond an 80% EOR, suggesting that for a subset of patients, the survival benefit of microsurgical resection does not diminish despite biological progression.

TL;DR: In this article, the surgical approaches used at a single institution to treat petroclival meningioma and evaluated changes in method utilization over time were examined retrospectively, and the progression-free survival rate for patients treated without petrosal approaches was 96%.
