    Abstract Delayed cerebral ischemia (DCI) contributes to extensive morbidity and mortality for patients with aneurysmal subarachnoid hemorrhage (SAH). Recent contributions to the basic and translational investigation of DCI have shed light on emerging concepts that may aid in the development of novel therapeutics. A clear association between cerebral vasospasm (CV) and DCI exists, but it is also known that DCI can affect brain parenchyma remote from sites of vasospasm. In this review, we highlight the most recent contributions to the understanding of the underlying pathophysiology of DCI including the emerging role of the glymphatic system. Furthermore, we discuss treatments for DCI, including both pharmacologic therapies and endovascular treatment of vasospasm. There continues to be a disconnect between interventions and targeted treatment against pathophysiology. This review is intended to serve as a catalyst for further research and discovery that can aid in improved treatment options for DCI.

    Abstract (1) Background: Neuroendovascular procedures have generally been considered to have minor or inconsequential blood loss. No study, however, has investigated this question. The purpose of this study is to quantify the blood loss associated with neuroendovascular procedures and identify predictors of blood loss, using hemoglobin change as a surrogate for blood loss. (2) Methods: A retrospective review of 200 consecutive endovascular procedures (diagnostic and therapeutic) at our institution from January 2020 to October 2020 was performed. Patients had to have pre- and post-operative hematocrit and hemoglobin levels recorded within 48 h of the procedure (with no intervening surgeries) for inclusion. (3) Results: The mean age of our cohort was 60.1 years and the male representation was 52.5%. The mean pre-operative hemoglobin/hematocrit was significantly lower among females compared to males (12.1/36.2 vs. 13.0/38.5,

    Abstract Background: Cell-free heme-containing proteins mediate endothelial injury in a variety of disease states including subarachnoid hemorrhage and sepsis by increasing endothelial permeability. Inflammatory cells are also attracted to sites of vascular injury by monocyte chemotactic protein 1 (MCP-1) and other chemokines. We have identified a novel peptide hormone, adropin, that protects against hemoglobin-induced endothelial permeability and MCP-1-induced macrophage migration.
    Methods: Human microvascular endothelial cells were exposed to cell-free hemoglobin (CFH) with and without adropin treatment before measuring monolayer permeability using a FITC-dextran tracer assay. mRNA and culture media were collected for molecular studies. We also assessed the effect of adropin on macrophage movement across the endothelial monolayer using an MCP-1-induced migration assay.
    Results: CFH exposure decreases adropin expression and increases paracellular permeability of human endothelial cells. Treating cells with synthetic adropin protects against the increased permeability observed during the natural injury progression. Cell viability was similar in all groups and Hmox1 expression was not affected by adropin treatment. MCP-1 potently induced macrophage migration across the endothelial monolayer and adropin treatment effectively reduced this phenomenon.
    Conclusions: Endothelial injury is a hallmark of many disease states. Our results suggest that adropin treatment could be a valuable strategy in preventing heme-mediated endothelial injury and macrophage infiltration. Further investigation of adropin therapy in animal models and human tissue specimens is needed.

    Abstract The history of cerebral aneurysm treatment has a rich and storied past with multiple notable luminaries contributing insights. The modern era has transitioned from primarily clip ligation to increasing use of endovascular therapy. Even more recently, the use of intrasaccular flow diverters has been introduced for the treatment of wide necked aneurysms. The field is continuing to transform, and bioactive coils and stents have resurfaced as promising adjuvants to promote aneurysm healing. Advanced imaging modalities are being developed that could further advance the endovascular arsenal and allow for porous memory polymer devices to enter the field. This focused review highlights notable historic contributions and advances to the point of futuristic technology that is actively being developed.

    Abstract Objective: Telemedicine encounters are expanding in utility for outpatient care and evaluation, partially as a necessity during the COVID-19 pandemic. It is unclear if telemedicine evaluation is comparable to in-person assessment of patients with spinal pathology undergoing surgical consultation. The objective of this study was to determine if treatment plans change for spine patients evaluated in person following an initial telemedicine consultation.
    Methods: Patients referred to the authors' comprehensive spine center were evaluated first via telemedicine and then in clinic. Telemedicine evaluations were conducted via video evaluation with an attending surgeon. Demographic data including age, gender, and distance traveled from the clinic were retrospectively recorded. A chart review retrieved symptoms, radiographic details, and past medical history. The primary outcome was if the treatment plan changed (plan change [PC]) after seeing the patient in the clinic. Chi-square tests and binary logistical regression produced uni- and multivariate analyses.
    Results: There were 152 new patients seen via telemedicine and in person. Pathology was present in the cervical (28.3%), thoracic (9.9%), and lumbar (61.8%) spine. The most common symptom was pain (72.4%), followed by radiculopathy (66.4%), weakness (26.3%), myelopathy (15.1%), and claudication (12.5%). There were 37 patients (24.3%) for whom there was a PC after clinic evaluation, and of those, only 5 (3.3%) were due to physical examination (PCPE) findings. On univariate analysis, a longer duration between telemedicine and clinic visit (odds ratio [OR] 1.094 per 7 days, p = 0.003), having pathology in the thoracic spine (OR 3.963, p = 0.018) and lack of sufficient imaging (OR 25.455, p < 0.0001) were predictive of a PC. Having pathology in the cervical spine (OR 9.538, p = 0.047) and adjacent-segment disease (OR 11.471, p = 0.010) were predictive of a PCPE.
    Conclusions: This study demonstrates that telemedicine may be an effective modality for the initial evaluation of spine surgical patients, without compromising decision-making in the absence of an in-person physical examination.

    Abstract Introduction: National and international trends continue to show greater emphasis on endovascular techniques for the treatment of cerebrovascular disease. The cerebrovascular neurosurgeon however must be adequately equipped to treat these patients via both open and endovascular techniques.
    Methods: The decline in open cerebrovascular cases for aneurysm clipping has forced many trainees to pursue open cerebrovascular fellowships to increase case volume. An alternative strategy has been employed at our institution, which is early identification of subspecialty focus with resident driven self-selection of open cerebrovascular cases.
    Results: This has allowed recent graduates to obtain enfolded endovascular training and a significant number of open cerebrovascular cases in order to obtain competence and exposure.
    Discussion: We advocate for further self-selection paradigms supplemented with simulation training in order to obviate the need for extended post-residency fellowships.

    Abstract Background: In recent years, there has been growing interest in the use of simulation to supplement conventional surgical training. Simulation remains, however, in its infancy in neurosurgery.
    Objective: To report on and assess the utility of a simulation physical model for the presigmoid approach.
    Methods: The Congress of Neurological Surgeons created a Simulation Committee to explore and develop simulation-based models. The current model involves drilling of the presigmoid cranial base under image guidance. Each time the drill touches the dura, facial nerve, or sigmoid sinus, a beeping and a warning sound are emitted.
    Results: Nine neurosurgery residents participated in and completed the presigmoid approach simulation module. All residents successfully completed the simulation procedure within the allocated time period (20 minutes). The mean number of hits to the dura, facial nerve, and sigmoid sinus decreased from 4.2 in the first test to 3.1 in the second test (P < .05). The facial nerve was the most likely structure to be injured, followed by the sigmoid sinus and finally the dura. All 9 participants had an improvement in their technical scores.
    Conclusion: The presigmoid approach simulation model is a useful tool in resident education that may improve surgical proficiency while minimizing risk to patients. More studies with standardized end points for technical proficiency and clinical outcomes are needed.
