    Abstract Bartolomeo Panizza (1785-1867) was an eminent anatomist and a pupil of Antonio Scarpa (1752-1832) at the University of Pavia. In 1855, before the revolutionary studies of Paul Broca (1824-1880) on aphasia that supported the theory of cortical localizations, Panizza delivered a lecture in Milan on the anatomy of the visual system, Osservazioni sul Nervo Ottico ("Observations on the optic nerve"). This lecture contains the first description of the cortical projection of the visual pathways in the occipital lobe, anticipating the revolutionary studies performed by Hermann Munk (1839-1912) in the late 19

    Abstract Background: Surgical treatment of syringomyelia is directed at the reconstruction of the subarachnoid space and restoration normal cerebrospinal fluid flow. Direct intervention on the syrinx is a rescue procedure and should be offered to patients with refractory syringomyelia.
    Methods: We provide an overview on indications and technique of syringopleural shunt (SPS). The procedure involves the connection of syrinx with the pleural space using a lumboperitoneal shunt. The occurrence of a negative pressure inside the pleural compartment offers an appropriate gradient for drainage from the syrinx.
    Conclusions: The SPS allows for a safe and effective treatment of persistent syringomyelia when management of the underlying cause does not yield substantial improvement.

    Abstract Aneurysms of the basilar trunk represent an exceptional challenge to the neurosurgeon, due to high mortality and surgical morbidity. We present a 69-year-old man with a giant dolichoectatic thrombotic basilar trunk aneurysm (BTA), who underwent right orbitozygomatic craniotomy, posterior cerebral artery (PCA) to right middle cerebral artery (MCA) bypass and trapping of the BTA. Unfortunately, patient died after surgery due to multiple foci of intraparenchymal haemorrhage and thrombosis of a short segment proximal to aneurysm trapped and his body was donated to the hospital, giving us the unique opportunity to compare intraoperative details with anatomical dissection findings, according to our previously published cadaveric neurosurgical research. The great and unique opportunity of this reported case, to learn by watching and watching again what has been done during surgery, to observe small vessels and brainstem perforators and to look at stiches of the bypass, SVG and the position of the clips, permits to refine the theoretical and practical skills for the treatment of complex aneurysms such as that one reported.

    Abstract Microvascular decompression (MVD) is considered an effective treatment for trigeminal neuralgia (TN). However, the anatomical and clinical variables associated with a better outcome are not fully examined. The authors performed a systematic review and meta-analysis of the literature investigating the immediate and long-term clinical results of MVD for TN, and the impact of the anatomical features of the neurovascular conflict on the outcome. The systematic search of three databases was performed for studies published between January 1990 and November 2021. PRISMA guidelines were followed. Random-effects meta-analysis was used to pool the analyzed outcomes, and random-effect meta-regression was used to examine the association between the effect size and potential confounders. A funnel plot followed by Egger's linear regression was used to test publication bias. A total of 9 studies were included in this analysis, including 2102 patients with trigeminal neuralgia. The immediate post-operative rate of BNI I was 82.9%, whereas surgical failure (BNI IV-V) was reported in approximately 2.6% of patients. CSF leak was the most common postoperative complication (2.4%). The rate of BNI I at last follow up was 64.7% (p < 0.01), showing a significant negative correlation after multiple meta-regression with the rate of patients with isolated venous conflict (p < 0.01). On the other hand, the evidence of an arterial conflict proved is positive association with a favorable outcome (p < 0.01). At the last follow-up, BNI IV-V was reported in 19.2% (95% CI 8.9-29.5%, p < 0.01, I

    Abstract Carbapenem-resistant Enterobacteriaceae (CRE) are a serious public health threat. Infections due to these organisms are associated with significant morbidity and mortality. Among them, metallo-β-lactamases (MBLs)-producing Klebsiella pneumoniae are of global concern today. The ceftazidime/avibactam combination and the ceftazidime/avibactam + aztreonam combination currently represent the most promising antibiotic strategies to stave off these kinds of infections. We describe the case of a patient affected by thrombotic thrombocytopenic purpura (TTP) admitted in our ICU after developing a hospital-acquired SarsCoV2 interstitial pneumonia during his stay in the hematology department. His medical conditions during his ICU stay were further complicated by a K. Pneumoniae NDM sepsis. To our knowledge, the patient had no risk factors for multidrug-resistant bacteria exposure or contamination during his stay in the hematology department. During his stay in the ICU, we treated the sepsis with a combination therapy of ceftazidime/avibactam + aztreonam. The therapy solved his septic state, allowing for a progressive improvement in his general condition. Moreover, we noticed that the negativization of the hemocultures was also associated to a decontamination of his known rectal colonization. The ceftazidime/avibactam + aztreonam treatment could not only be a valid therapeutic option for these kinds of infections, but it could also be considered as a useful tool in selected patients’ intestinal decolonizations.

    Abstract Despite extensive investigations, the choice of graft material for reconstructive duraplasty after foramen magnum decompression for Chiari type I malformation (CMI) is still a topic of discussion. The authors performed a systematic review and meta-analysis of the literature examining the post-operative complications in adult patients with CMI after foramen magnum decompression and duraplasty (FMDD) using different graft materials. Our systematic review included 23 studies with a total of 1563 patients with CMI who underwent FMDD with different dural substitutes. The most common complications were pseudomeningocele (2.7%, 95% CI 1.5-3.9%,
