    Abstract Purpose: Placement of an external ventricular drainage (EVD) is one of the most frequent procedures in neurosurgery, but it has specific challenges and risks in the pediatric population. We here investigate the indications, management, and shunt conversion rates of an EVD.
    Methods: We retrospectively analyzed the data of a consecutive series of pediatric patients who had an EVD placement in the Department of Neurosurgery at Hannover Medical School over a 12-year period. A bundle approach was introduced to reduce infections. Patients were categorized according to the underlying pathology in three groups: tumor, hemorrhage, and infection.
    Results: A total of 126 patients were included in this study. Seventy-two were male, and 54 were female. The mean age at the time of EVD placement was 5.2 ± 5.0 years (range 0-17 years). The largest subgroup was the tumor group (n = 54, 42.9%), followed by the infection group (n = 47, 37.3%), including shunt infection (n = 36), infected Rickham reservoir (n = 4), and bacterial or viral cerebral infection (n = 7), and the hemorrhage group (n = 25, 19.8%). The overall complication rate was 19.8% (n = 25/126), and the total number of complications was 30. Complications during EVD placement were noted in 5/126 (4%) instances. Complications during drainage time were infection in 9.5% (12 patients), dysfunction in 7.1% (9 patients), and EVD dislocation in 3.2% (4 patients). The highest rate of complications was seen in the hemorrhage group. There were no long-term complications. Conversion rates into a permanent shunt system were 100% in previously shunt-dependent patients. Conversion rates were comparable in the tumor group (27.7%) and in the hemorrhage group (32.0%).
    Conclusion: EVD placement in children is an overall safe and effective option in children. In order to make further progress, carefully planned prospective and if possible randomized studies are needed controlling for multivariable aspects.

    Abstract Background: Deep brain stimulation (DBS) is now well established for the treatment of dystonic movement disorders. There is limited data, however, on the efficacy of DBS in hemidystonia. This meta-analysis aims to summarize the published reports on DBS for hemidystonia of different etiologies, to compare different stimulation targets, and to evaluate clinical outcome.
    Methods: A systematic literature review was performed on PubMed, Embase and Web of Science to identify appropriate reports. The primary outcome variables were the improvement in the Burke-Fahn-Marsden Dystonia Rating Scale movement (BFMDRS-M) and disability (BFMDRS-D) scores for dystonia.
    Results: Twenty-two reports (39 patients; 22 with pallidal stimulation, 4 with subthalamic stimulation, 3 with thalamic stimulation, and 10 with combined target stimulation) were included. Mean age at surgery was 26.8 years. Mean follow-up time was 31.72 months. An overall mean improvement of 40% in the BFMDRS-M score was achieved (range 0%-94%), which was paralleled by a mean improvement of 41% in the BFMDRS-D score. When considering a 20% cut-off for improvement, 23/39 patients (59%) would qualify as responders. Hemidystonia due to anoxia did not significantly improve with DBS. Several limitations of the results must be considered, most importantly the low level of evidence and the small number of reported cases.
    Conclusion: Based on the results of the current analysis, DBS can be considered as a treatment option for hemidystonia. The posteroventral lateral GPi is the target used most often. More research is needed to understand the variability in outcome and to identify prognostic factors.

    Abstract Objective: The Chiari malformations present heterogeneous entities, raising many questions regarding their natural history, pathophysiology, treatment options, and prognosis. Bibliometric analyses have emerged as a method to assess the impact of articles in current clinical practice.
    Methods: The most cited articles were identified via Scopus Library by using the keywords "Chiari," "Arnold-Chiari," and "Chiari malformation." The 100 most cited articles were then assembled and analyzed in detail.
    Results: The top 100 articles yielded a mean of 155,28 citations per article, ranging from 87 to 896 citations, and from 1.63 to 38.96 per year. Years of publications ranged from 1950 to 2015. Oakes was the most cited author (n = 7), followed by Tubbs and Milhorat. The country with the highest cited articles was the United States (n = 63), followed by the United Kingdom (n = 6), Italy (n = 5), Spain (n = 5), Japan (n = 4), and Germany (n = 3). Neurosurgery is the journal with the most highly cited articles (n = 21), followed by Journal of Neurosurgery (n = 19). Most articles focused on Chiari malformation type I (n = 83). The topic discussed most often was imaging (n = 63), followed by the evaluation of treatment outcome (n = 58), clinical signs and symptoms (n = 57), and the role of surgery (n = 56).
    Conclusions: The present bibliometric analysis provides a succinct appraisal of the most cited articles concerning Chiari malformation, allowing a deeper insight in this area and its main influential articles with their impact on current clinical practice and future research.

    Abstract Background: Surgical site infections (SSIs) are among the most common postoperative complications. Glioblastoma multiforme is the most frequent malignant brain tumor with a dismal prognosis despite combined treatment. The effect of SSIs on the course of glioblastoma patients has not been fully clarified since available data are limited and partially contradictory. The aim of this study is to investigate the impact of SSIs on the course of patients with glioblastoma.
    Methods: The medical records of all patients undergoing surgery for glioblastoma between 2010 and 2020 in our institution were scanned and those with surgical site infections after glioblastoma resection were identified and compared to an age-matched control group. Overall survival and progression-free survival were the primary endpoints followed by the number of hospitalizations and the length of stay in hospital.
    Results: Out of 305 patients undergoing surgery for glioblastoma, 38 patients with postoperative surgical site infection after resection were identified and 15 (5 men and 10 women aged between 9 and 72) were included in this study. 23 patients were excluded. The control group consisted of 30 age-matched patients without SSI (18 men and 12 women). There were no significant differences in median overall survival. Progression-free survival was higher in the SSI group. The number of hospitalizations and the length of stay were significantly higher in the SSI group.
    Conclusion: Our data suggest that SSIs might reduce early recurrences without affecting overall survival. Furthermore, they might decrease health-related quality of life by doubling the total length of hospital stay.
