    Abstract Traumatic brain injury (TBI) is one of the leading causes of morbidity and mortality. The etiologies of TBI are varied and its complications can lead to paroxysmal sympathetic hyperactivity that was first described as a "sympathetic storm" or "diencephalic autonomic seizure." The clinical manifestations are rapid and sudden onset of sympathetic hyperactivity characterized by tachycardia, systolic hypertension, hyperthermia, tachypnea, and diaphoresis, all summarized in the latest and most accepted diagnostic criteria. The pathophysiology remains controversial with many theories proposed. Given the clinical manifestations, the complications, outcomes, and lack of popularity of the syndrome, we report a case treated in our institution and review the current pathophysiology and treatment options.

    Abstract Spinal giant cell tumor (GCT) and aneurysmal bone cyst (ABC) are infrequent neoplasms of bone. Thirty percent of ABCs are secondary to tumors, such as GCT. We report a rare case of a pediatric cervical spine secondary ABC to GCT that had to be multimodally managed through anterior and posterior surgical approach, embolization, and denosumab treatment leading to a stabilization of the remnant. The case shows the importance of therapeutic strategy decision that depends on the patient and the lesion.

    Case description: We describe the case of a 26-year-old female who presented with intracranial hypertension syndrome secondary to a 1.9 cm
    Conclusion: Because of the rarity of the lesion, literature is yet not able to find consensus concerning management of such lesion, but SRS has proven efficiency for these Grades II or III lesions with high recurrence rates. Therefore, it should be considered as a primary therapeutic option allowing good outcome with low risks for the patient.

    Abstract A 59-year-old female presented with severe headache and trouble of consciousness. The CT showed a subarachnoid hemorrhage FISHER IV with a hematoma of the right cerebellum. The angiography discovered a persistent left trigeminal artery associated with an aneurysm of the right posterior meningeal artery. The attempt of embolization failed and the patient suffered cerebral vasospasm and died. The persistence of a trigeminal artery is found in 0.1-0.6% of the population. It is the most frequent embryological carotid-vertebral anastomosis. It appears at the fifth week of development and disappears when the embryo reaches 5-7 mm. This embryological persistence is associated with numerous vascular abnormalities. The literature review showed the presence of those aneurysms in the trigeminal artery itself or the communicating artery. The association that we described is the first to our knowledge. Therefore, this association is particular and interesting to expose.

    Abstract A 58-year-old man presented to the neurosurgical emergencies for a transzygomatic transcranial stab wound with a retained broken knife. The patient was neurologically intact. After radiographic evaluation the knife was found to be penetrating the temporal lobe, neighboring the intracavernous portion of the carotid artery. The patient was successfully managed in a conservative way. No abnormalities were seen at 12 months of follow-up. Dealing with penetrating head injuries is a usual condition in neurosurgical practice. Some situations are though really challenging, especially when the offending object is still in place, with a close connection to vital structures. This clinical reports an unusual penetrating head injury, highlighting the importance of careful radiographic evaluation and trying to discuss clear management options.
