Fractures in mild TBI can lead to severe damage to the structures of the brain, which is manifested by the corresponding symptoms. Prognostic analyses of fractures of the skull in head injury of mild severity is needed to identify patients with an increased risk of residual impacts and to use resources more risk averse subgroup. A large-scale retrospective study of 2228 patients of both sexes and different age groups was conducted. Risk stratification of prognostic clinical signs determining the probability of intracranial lesions in patients with mild and moderate TBI was performed. When detecting fractures and their combination, prognostic criteria are: headache, loss of consciousness, alcohol intoxication, GCS, skull deformity, bleeding from the nose or ear, liquorrhea, dangerous injury mechanisms such as an accident, a dangerous fall as a fall on the back of the head or a fall above one’s height, work injury, fracture of the bones of the cranial vault (by CT), fracture of the skull base (by CT), epidural hematoma, foci of brain contusion, foci of SAC and depressed fracture.","PeriodicalId":447580,"journal":{"name":"Vestnik nevrologii, psihiatrii i nejrohirurgii (Bulletin of Neurology, Psychiatry and Neurosurgery)","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2023-02-08","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"116787777","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

For its implementation, it is of great importance to carry out preoperative planning using modern neuroimaging methods (MRI, MSCT, PET). It includes imaging of topographic and anatomical features of the area of interest, which may vary depending on the direction of tumor growth. Neuroimaging data allows assessing the properties of the tumor (size, spread, density, degree of vascularization) in a particular patient at the preoperative stage. For the procedure of neuro-radiosurgery treatment, a dosimetric plan is additionally created, which should be as selective and conformal as possible, taking into account the critical structures located nearby. Aim of the study. Based on our own research and literature data, to analyze and demonstrate the most informative neuroimaging methods when planning neurosurgery and neuro-radiosurgery interventions that will ensure safe and, if possible, radical treatment of pituitary adenomas. Materials and methods. The analysis included 29 foreign and 9 Russian scientific sources devoted to the study of the possibilities of MRI, CT, and PET in the diagnosis of pituitary adenomas, from the perspective of modern neuroimaging capabilities. The work is illustrated with images of the studied area obtained during the planning of neurosurgery or neuro-radiosurgery treatment. The analysis of our own observations based on neuroimaging data in 280 patients was carried out. Results. Based on the analysis of literary sources, the modern possibilities of neuroimaging in the planning of neurosurgeries and neuro-radiosurgeries are demonstrated. Optimal neuroimaging techniques have been determined to assess the anatomical features of the sellar region and the properties of the tumor, allowing to increase the effectiveness of preoperative planning in each specific case.","PeriodicalId":447580,"journal":{"name":"Vestnik nevrologii, psihiatrii i nejrohirurgii (Bulletin of Neurology, Psychiatry and Neurosurgery)","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2023-02-08","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"121661577","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

At the same time, among the researchers of this issue there is still no consensus on what exactly is meant by «medical error». In modern legal scientific publications, they often call for abandoning this term and using the concept of «negligence» for lawyers. It is all the more important in the professional community to define the concept of «medical error» and distinguish it from other undesirable events associated with the treatment of the patient. This review presents different approaches to the definition of the concepts of «medical error» and «surgical error», what is their main difference from iatrogenic, medical negligence, complications of surgery. Some classifications of errors in surgery are presented. The most common factors of surgical errors are identified, such as lack of competence and experience of the doctor, impaired interaction and communication of staff, excessive workload and fatigue, emergency operations, unusual patient anatomy, lack of necessary equipment and instruments. Using the example of neurosurgical practice, such errors as performing a craniotomy on the wrong side, surgery on the spine at the wrong level, leaving foreign bodies in the wound, and others are considered. In conclusion, the main measures for the prevention of errors in surgery in general and in neurosurgery in particular are described.","PeriodicalId":447580,"journal":{"name":"Vestnik nevrologii, psihiatrii i nejrohirurgii (Bulletin of Neurology, Psychiatry and Neurosurgery)","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2023-02-08","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"129248773","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The use of new diagnostic equipment (multi-slice CT, high-angle MRI, and their varieties - MR spectroscopy, fMRI, diffusion tensor MRI, stereotactic diagnostics) allows identifying diseases that were previously detected only after autopsy. Despite the modern method of diagnosing a malignant brain tumor, its early diagnosis remains an urgent problem. At the same time, total removal of brain tumors is a difficult task for neurosurgeons. Thus, according to control CT and MRI of the brain, the radicality of resection reaches 40-50%.

Standard DICOM image viewing program for MRI in T1 WI and T2 WI modes was used for the measurement. The most distant location of the exiting spinal nerve from the intervertebral disc was observed at the level of L5S1 vertebrae (9.82 mm, 0.95CI (9,53 10,10), p<0.05). The narrowest safety triangle turned out to be at the level of L2‑L5 vertebrae, where the distance did not differ statistically (1.97–2.28 mm, p> 0.05). A similar pattern was revealed for the distance between the exiting root and the intervertebral joint. The greatest angle between the exiting spinal nerve and the disc plane was found at the level of L5S1 (134.68 °, 0.95CI (132.39 136.97), p<0.001). The angle was close to a straight one at the other levels. The exiting root located dorsal to the disc plane at the cranial levels (L2L3, L3L4) in all cases, in contrast to L5S1 level, where it always located ventrally. Thus, the greatest narrowness of the Kambin safety triangle was revealed in the intervertebral foramen of the cranial lumbar segments (L2L3, L3L4). Transforaminal interventions require special attention to the exiting spinal nerve at these levels, and possibly additional bone resection to widen the foramen.","PeriodicalId":447580,"journal":{"name":"Vestnik nevrologii, psihiatrii i nejrohirurgii (Bulletin of Neurology, Psychiatry and Neurosurgery)","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2023-02-08","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"133916028","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

It is often necessary to carry out differential diagnosis of this disease with atypical types of parkinsonism, such as multiple system atrophy, progressive supranuclear palsy, corticobasal degeneration, and diffuse Lewy body disease. Given the fact that the diagnosis of all types of Parkinsonism basically consists in conducting a clinical examination, specialists often find it difficult to make the correct diagnosis. This article describes the differential diagnosis of Parkinson's disease and multiple system atrophy on the example of a clinical case. The purpose of studying this case is to help practitioners in making diagnoses of Parkinsonism. A patient with symptoms of Parkinsonism was examined, followed by differential diagnosis based on the obtained clinical and instrumental data. The verification of the diagnosis caused particular difficulty due to the presence of various combined symptoms of Parkinsonism. Ultimately, based on clinical and instrumental studies, the decision was made in favor of Parkinson's disease, which was confirmed by the fact of a positive response to Levodopa therapy. Undoubtedly, every practicing neurologist needs to know the clinical features of various types of parkinsonism in order to make a correct diagnosis, and, accordingly, prescribe the correct treatment in the future.","PeriodicalId":447580,"journal":{"name":"Vestnik nevrologii, psihiatrii i nejrohirurgii (Bulletin of Neurology, Psychiatry and Neurosurgery)","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2023-01-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"124728371","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
