  • Tiny (≤3 mm) Unruptured Intracranial Aneurysms: A 13-Year Contemporary Insight on Treatment Safety From a Multicenter Registry. [Journal Article]

  • CONCLUSIONS: Treatment of tiny unruptured aneurysms remains common despite very low rupture risk. Procedural risks are low and comparable with slightly larger aneurysms. Treatment decisions should integrate both rupture risk and procedural safety, with anterior communicating artery or posterior communicating artery locations and unfavorable baseline functional status representing higher-risk features. When indicated, stent-assisted coiling was independently associated with higher intraoperative complication risk relative to clipping in this cohort.

  • Neural Regeneration After Supercharged End-to-Side Nerve Transfer: Which Way to Go? [Journal Article]

  • CONCLUSIONS: These results represent the stages of donor axon regeneration after SETS NT. Although early regeneration extended bidirectionally in intact and regenerating nerves, long-term outcomes favored regeneration directionally toward an end organ in the latter by reduction of proximal projections. In addition to robust axonal ingrowth, SETS NT exhibited a nonsignificant reduced distal regeneration capacity compared with end-to-end coaptation. Consequently, it might represent a considerable alternative while simultaneously preserving native nerve regeneration capacities, warranting further investigation to validate these findings in a clinical context.

  • Time Course of Elbow Flexion Recovery Following Brachial Plexus Injury and Peripheral Nerve Reconstruction. [Journal Article]
    Neurosurgery. 2026 Apr 30. [Online ahead of print]Renauld SM, Walker HB, … Brown JMN
  • CONCLUSIONS: In this retrospective study of patients with BPI and EF deficits, longitudinal data such as EF Medical Research Council Scale for Muscle Strength and biceps electromyographies are useful clinical predictors for recovery. Although the treatment of BPI remains highly individualized, these data suggest 2 key metrics, neurophysiological recovery and the 5-month benchmark, to better counsel patients on the time course of their recovery. Importantly, different injury types and reconstructions did recover at different rates, and this must be taken into consideration when attempting to predict ultimate recovery or need for reconstruction.

  • Safety of Staged Bilateral MRgFUS Thalamotomy: Associations Between Lesion Characteristics, Stereotactic Coordinates, and Adverse Events. [Journal Article]
    Neurosurgery. 2026 Oct 01. [Online ahead of print]Shafie B, Valuev T, … Raslan AMN
  • CONCLUSIONS: AE persistence after the second session was volume-dependent, with rates comparable to the first session at smaller lesion volumes but elevated at larger volumes. Posterior lesion positioning was independently associated with mouth numbness and speech deficits, supporting anterior targeting adjustments for contralateral procedures. These findings suggest that lesion volume constraint combined with anterior positioning may optimize the safety profile of staged bilateral MRgFUS thalamotomy, although prospective validation is needed to establish definitive volume thresholds.
