Abstract: Objectives To analyze the outcome of facial nerve (FN) reconstruction, the impact of technical variations in different conditions and locations, and the importance of additional techniques in case of suboptimal results.

Patients Between 2001 and 2017, reconstruction of the FN was performed on 36 patients with varying underlying diseases. Interventions FN repair was performed by direct coaptation (n = 3) or graft interposition (n = 33). Microsurgical sutures were used in 17 patients (47%) and fibrin glue was used in all cases. Additional reinnervation techniques (hypoglossal–facial or masseter–facial transfers) were performed in five patients with poor results after initial reconstruction.

Assessment of Overall Survival in Glioma Patients as Predicted by Metabolomic Criteria

We assess the efficacy of the metabolomic profile from glioma biopsies in providing estimates of postsurgical Overall Survival in glioma patients.

Autores: María L. Gandía-González - Sebastián Cerdán - Laura Barrios - Pilar López-Larrubia - Pablo G. Feijoó - Alexis Palpan Jr. - José M. Roda - Juan Solivera

Abstract: Tumor biopsies from 46 patients bearing gliomas, obtained neurosurgically in the period 1992–1998, were analyzed by high resolution 1H magnetic resonance spectroscopy (HR- 1H MRS), following retrospectively individual postsurgical Overall Survival up to 720 weeks.

The Overall Survival profile could be resolved in three groups; Short (shorter than 52 weeks, n = 19), Intermediate (between 53 and 364 weeks, n = 19) or Long (longer than 365 weeks, n = 8), respectively. Classical histopathological analysis assigned WHO grades II–IV to every biopsy but notably, some patients with low grade glioma depicted unexpectedly Short Overall Survival, while some patients with high grade glioma, presented unpredictably Long Overall Survival. To explore the reasons underlying these different responses, we analyzed HR-1H MRS spectra from acid extracts of the same biopsies

Parada et al 2019 British Journal of Pharmacology

Inflammation takes place in both chronic and acute brain diseases and plays a key role in the development of several pathologies.

Abstract: Indeed, immune activation in the CNS is a common feature of brain injuries such as stroke, neurodegenerative diseases, and multiple sclerosis. Chronic inflammation leads to noxious effects on neurons and, thus,contributes to the pathophysiology of neurodegenerative diseases.Brain ischaemia is an acute injury that leads to the production of ROS and reactive nitrogen species (RNS), lipid peroxidation, blood–brain barrier (BBB) disruption, and exacerbated inflammation resultingin dramatic neuronal death ...

Estimado Dr. Roda Frade

En nombre de los Comités Organizador y Científico del XV CONGRESO de la SONCAM, nuestro más sincero agradecimiento por su participación como Moderador, en la Mesa “COMPLICACIONES EN NEUROCIRUGÍA VASCULAR” que tendrá lugar el viernes, 18 de noviembre de 2016, a las 11:30 h., en el Hospital Universitario Gregorio Marañón, de Madrid.

Invite you to be one of the Chair Persons at this Annual Meeting

Dear Dr Roda

On behalf of the Board of the European Association of Neurosurgical Societies and the local organising committee in Madrid, we are delighted to invite you to be one of the Chair Persons at this Annual Meeting, which will attract around 800 international delegates. We very much hope that you will be able to join us.

As you are already aware, the EANS 2015 Annual Meeting is to be held in Madrid on October 18-21, 2015. Preparations for the Meeting are underway and we are very excited about the chosen theme, which is “Technical Advances in Neurosurgery”. We are committed to organising a high quality scientific event, which will seek both to enhance participants’ understanding of accepted best practice in neurosurgery and also to address present and upcoming challenges in the field.

On behalf of the EANS 2015 Scientific Programme Committee, we thank you in advance for your consideration and kind cooperation. It is our pleasure to invite you to the EANS 2015 Annual Meeting and hope very much you are able to join us.

Abstract: Abstract Bell’s palsy is the most common diagnosis associated with facial nerve weakness or paralysis. However, not all patients with facial paresis/paralysis have Bell’spalsy. Other common causes include treatment of vestibular schwannoma, head and neck tumours, iatrogenic injuries, Herpes zoster, or trauma. The approach to each of these conditions varies widely.The purpose of this guide line is to provide clinicians with guidance on the treatment and monitoring of patients with different causes of facial paralysis.
