    Abstract Purpose of review: Sitting position to surgically approach posterior fossa disorder continues to be the first choice for some neurosurgical teams. We underwent a literature research for recent published studies involving neurosurgical patients operated on in this position. Preoperative evaluation, anesthetic technique, intraoperative monitoring, detection and treatment of venous or arterial air embolism episodes, and all the reported complications were recorded.
    Recent findings: A modified semisitting (lounging) position aiming to create a positive pressure in the transverse and sigmoid sinuses, with lower head and higher legs positioned above the top of the head, decreases the incidence and severity of venous air embolism. Hyperventilation, compromising cerebral blood flow, has to be avoided during a sitting position. Precordial Doppler or transesophageal echocardiography monitoring improves the detection of small venous air embolism enabling its early treatment and diminishing its consequences. Patients with known patent foramen ovale can be operated on in a sitting position, under strict protocol, with few reported clinical venous air embolism and no paradoxical air embolism.
    Summary: Sitting position for neurosurgical procedures may be a well tolerated approach for the patient if neurosurgeons and neuroanesthesiologists undergo a strict team protocol, including all necessary monitoring and meticulously followed.

    Abstract Background: The aim of this observational study was to determine whether bilateral bispectral index (BIS) monitoring can detect seizures in epileptic patients.
    Methods: Four-channel frontal BIS monitoring and standard 40-channel electroencephalography monitoring were conducted in epileptic patients undergoing evaluation for epilepsy surgery. The BIS numerical value, signal quality index, electromyography, suppression ratio, and color density spectral array were continuously recorded. In patients with electroencephalography-confirmed seizures, the mean value and trend (slope of linear regression) of bilateral BIS monitor parameters were analyzed from 1 minute before to 1 minute after seizure onset.
    Results: Of 48 patients included in the study, 21 (43.8%) had at least 1 seizure. BIS numerical value was not able to detect focal or focal to bilateral tonic-clonic seizures. Considering all seizures, the only significant differences between recordings 1 minute before and 1 minute after seizure onset were a decrease in the signal quality index slope from 1 hemisphere (0.039±0.297 vs. -0.085±0.321, respectively; P =0.029) and in the mean signal quality index recorded from both hemispheres (left hemisphere: 65.775±30.599 vs. 61.032±26.285; P =0.016 and right hemisphere: 63.244±31.985 vs. 59.837±27.360; 0.029); these differences were not maintained after Hochberg adjustment for multiple comparisons. In seizures occurring during sleep, there was a change in the electromyography slope of 1 hemisphere before and after seizure onset (-0.141±0.176 vs. 0.162±0.140, respectively; P =0.038). There were variable responses in BIS parameters in the 3 patients who developed focal nonconvulsive seizure clusters.
    Conclusion: Bilateral BIS monitoring was not able to detect the occurrence of seizures in epileptic patients.

    Abstract Background: We aimed to assess the feasibility of using supraglottic devices as an alternative to orotracheal intubation for airway management during anesthesia for endovascular treatment of unruptured intracranial aneurisms in our department over a nine-year period.
    Methods: Retrospective single center analysis of cases (2010-2018). Primary outcomes: airway management (supraglottic device repositioning, need for switch to orotracheal intubation, airway complications).
    Secondary outcomes: aneurysm complexity, history of subarachnoid hemorrhage, hemodynamic monitoring, and perioperative complications.
    Results: We included 187 patients in two groups: supraglottic device 130 (69.5%) and orotracheal intubation 57 (30.5%). No adverse incidents were recorded in 97% of the cases. Three supraglottic device patients required supraglottic device repositioning and 1 supraglottic device patient required orotracheal intubation due to inadequate ventilation. Three orotracheal intubation patients had a bronchospasm or laryngospasm during awakening. Forty-five patients (24.1%) had complex aneurysms or a history of subarachnoid hemorrhage. Thirty-three of them (73.3%) required orotracheal intubation compared to 24 of the 142 (16.9%) with non-complex aneurysms. Two patients in each group died during early postoperative recovery. Two in each group also had intraoperative bleeding. A post-hoc analysis showed that orotracheal intubation was used in 55 patients (44%) in 2010 through 2014 and 2 (3.2%) in 2015 through 2018, parallel to a trend toward less invasive blood pressure monitoring from the earlier to the later period from 34 (27.2%) cases to 5 (8.2%).
    Conclusion: Supraglottic device, like other less invasiveness protocols, can be considered a feasible alternative airway management approach in selected patients proposed for endovascular treatment of unruptured intracranial aneurisms.
