Management of Skull Base Metastases.

Abstract:

:Autopsy studies suggest that skull base metastases are likely underrecognized in patients with cancer. Patients frequently present with one or a combination of skull base clinical syndromes that manifest as pain or cranial neuropathy. Once a skull base metastasis is suspected, establishing a histologic diagnosis, dedicated imaging, and restaging (if appropriate) are the first steps in management. A multidisciplinary approach should then be used to identify the optimal histology-based treatment strategy, taking into account the burden of systemic disease. Finally, definitive treatment may include one or a combination of surgical management, radiation therapy, or chemotherapy."

  • On the surgery of the seat of the soul: the pineal gland and the history of its surgical approaches.

    abstract::The pineal gland has been studied through philosophy and science for thousands of years. Its role in human physiology was not well understood until the scientific community first started to report on pineal pathology in the eighteenth century. Throughout the nineteenth and twentieth centuries, reports on pineal tumors...
