The usefulness of 3-dimensional (3D)-printed disease models has been recognized in various medical fields. This study aims to introduce a production platform for patient-specific 3D-printed brain tumor model in clinical practice and evaluate its effectiveness. A full-cycle platform was created for the clinical application of a 3D-printed brain tumor model (3D-printed model) production system. Essential elements included automated segmentation software, cloud-based interactive communication tools

We reviewed our cases over 10 years according to fracture type and fixation methods. In conclusion, minimal incision, familiar approach and fixation methods of the surgeon are recommended.

The combination of the PARP inhibitor olaparib with temozolomide could be promising candidates for combination therapy of glioblastoma regardless of the MGMT promoter methylation status.

Ehlers-Danlos syndrome (EDS) is an inherited disorder of collagen biosynthesis and structure, characterized by skin hyperextensibility, joint hypermobility, aberrant scars, and tissue friability. Besides the skin, skeleton (joint) and vessels, other organs such as the eyes and the intestine can be affected in this syndrome. Accordingly, interdisciplinary cooperation is necessary for a successful treatment. Three basic surgical problems are arising due to an EDS: decreased the strength of the tis

This epidemiological data of 5-ALA fluorescence in various grades of glioma provides a basic reference to the clinical application of FGS with 5-ALA in glioma surgery.

The optimal schedule of radiological assessments for each layered risk group of patients with HGG could be determined from the parametric model of PFS.

5-ALA induced fluorescence is not limited to glioma but is also evident in non-glioma and non-neoplastic conditions. This 5-ALA-induced fluorescence may be used as an intraoperative tool for various brain conditions.

Primary cutaneous anaplastic large cell lymphoma (C-ALCL) is a rare subtype of primary cutaneous lymphoma with a favorable prognosis. Primary cutaneous CD30+ lymphoproliferative disorders, which include C-ALCL and lymphomatoid papulosis, are the second most common group of cutaneous T-cell lymphomas. C-ALCL is comprised of large cells with anaplastic, pleomorphic, or immunoblastic cytomorphology, and indeed, more than 75% of the tumor cells express the CD30 antigen. C-ALCL clinically presents wi

We report a case of glioneuronal tumor (GNT) with a discovery of novel gene fusion of <i>CLIP2-MET</i> resulting from aberrant chromosome 7 abnormalities. We executed an elaborate genomic study on this case including whole-exome sequencing and RNA sequencing. Genomic analysis of the tumor revealed aberrations in chromosomes 1 and 7 and a <i>CLIP2-MET</i> fusion. Further analysis of the upregulated genes revealed substantial connections with MAPK pathway activation. We concluded that the chromoso

Postoperative follow-up LSR examination may be beneficial in predicting clinical outcomes after MVD for HFS, especially when considered together with IO-LSR.

We investigated a rare metaplastic meningioma subtype based on our 15-year surgical experience with meningiomas. Further investigation will be necessary for the clear clarification of tumor nature of this rare tumor.

fMRI and DTI-t are sensitive and specific for mapping Broca's area compared with DCS and specific but insensitive compared with CCEP. A site with a positive signal on both fMRI and DTI-t represents a high probability of being an essential language area.

Our findings showed that although only cyst fenestration for decompression was performed to preserve pituitary function, more pituitary dysfunction occurred than expected. Besides, the postoperative hormonal deterioration itself acted as a risk factor for cyst recurrence. In conclusion, surgery for RCC should be more careful.
