- Routine postoperative computed tomography scan after craniotomy: systematic review and evidence-based recommendations(2021) BLUMRICH, Lukas; TELLES, Joao Paulo Mota; SILVA, Saul Almeida da; IGLESIO, Ricardo Ferrareto; TEIXEIRA, Manoel Jacobsen; FIGUEIREDO, Eberval GadelhaOver the last few years, the role of early postoperative computed tomography (EPOCT) after cranial surgery has been repeatedly questioned, but there is yet no consensus on the practice. We conducted a systematic review to address the usefulness of EPOCT in association with neurological examination after elective craniotomies compared to the neurological examination alone. Studies were eligible if they provided information about the number of patients scanned, how many were asymptomatic or presented neurological deterioration before the scan and how many of each of those groups had their management changed due to imaging findings. CTs had to be performed in the first 48 h following surgery to be considered early. Eight studies were included. The retrospective studies enrolled a total of 3639 patients, with 3737 imaging examinations. Out of the 3696 CT scans performed in asymptomatic patients, less than 0.8% prompted an intervention, while 100% of patients with neurological deterioration were submitted to emergency surgery. Positive predictive values of altered scans were 0.584 for symptomatic patients and 0.125 for the asymptomatic. The number of altered scans necessary to predict (NNP) one change in management for the asymptomatic patients was 8, while for the clinically evident cases, it was 1.71. The number of scans needed to diagnose one clinically silent alteration is 134.75, and postoperative imaging of neurologically intact patients is 132 times less likely to issue an emergency intervention than an altered neurological examination alone. EPOCT following elective craniotomy in neurologically preserved patients is not supported by current evidence, and CT scanning should be performed only in particular conditions. The authors have developed an algorithm to help the judgment of each patient by the surgeon in a resource-limited context.
conferenceObject Lateral Insertion of Leads and Treatment Outcomes in Ventral Capsule/Ventral Striatum Deep Brain Stimulation for Obsessive-Compulsive Disorder(2020) LOPES, Antonio; GODINHO, Fabio; MURAKAMI, Mario; IGLESIO, Ricardo; LEEMANS, Alexander; FONOFF, Erich; MIGUEL, Euripedes; TEIXEIRA, Manoel; ARANTES, Paula- Should the Globus Pallidus Targeting Be Refined in Dystonia?(2022) LAPA, Jorge Dornellys da Silva; GODINHO, Fabio Luiz Franceschi; TEIXEIRA, Manoel Jacobsen; LISTIK, Clarice; IGLESIO, Ricardo Ferrareto; DUARTE, Kleber Paiva; CURY, Rubens GisbertBackground and Study Aims Deep brain stimulation (DBS) of the globus pallidus internus (GPi) is a highly effective therapy for primary generalized and focal dystonias, but therapeutic success is compromised by a nonresponder rate of up to 20%. Variability in electrode placement and in tissue stimulated inside the GPi may explain in part different outcomes among patients. Refinement of the target within the pallidal area could be helpful for surgery planning and clinical outcomes. The objective of this study was to discuss current and potential methodological (somatotopy, neuroimaging, and neurophysiology) aspects that might assist neurosurgical targeting of the GPi, aiming to treat generalized or focal dystonia. Methods We selected published studies by searching electronic databases and scanning the reference lists for articles that examined the anatomical and electrophysiologic aspects of the GPi in patients with idiopathic/inherited dystonia who underwent functional neurosurgical procedures. Results The sensorimotor sector of the GPi was the best target to treat dystonic symptoms, and was localized at its lateral posteroventral portion. The effective volume of tissue activated (VTA) to treat dystonia had a mean volume of 153mm (3) in the posterior GPi area. Initial tractography studies evaluated the close relation between the electrode localization and pallidothalamic tract to control dystonic symptoms. Regarding the somatotopy, the more ventral, lateral, and posterior areas of the GPi are associated with orofacial and cervical representation. In contrast, the more dorsal, medial, and anterior areas are associated with the lower limbs; between those areas, there is the representation of the upper limb. Excessive pallidal synchronization has a peak at the theta band of 3 to 8Hz, which might be responsible for generating dystonic symptoms. Conclusions Somatotopy assessment of posteroventral GPi contributes to target-specific GPi sectors related to segmental body symptoms. Tractography delineates GPi output pathways that might guide electrode implants, and electrophysiology might assist in pointing out areas of excessive theta synchronization. Finally, the identification of oscillatory electrophysiologic features that correlate with symptoms might enable closed-loop approaches in the future.
- Exploring clinical outcomes in patients with idiopathic/inherited isolated generalized dystonia and stimulation of the subthalamic region(2023) LISTIK, Clarice; LAPA, Jorge Dornellys; CASAGRANDE, Sara Carvalho Barbosa; BARBOSA, Egberto Reis; IGLESIO, Ricardo; GODINHO, Fabio; DUARTE, Kleber Paiva; TEIXEIRA, Manoel Jacobsen; CURY, Rubens GisbertBackground Deep Brain Stimulation (DBS) is an established treatment option for refractory dystonia, but the improvement among the patients is variable. Objective To describe the outcomes of DBS of the subthalamic region (STN) in dystonic patients and to determine whether the volume of tissue activated (VTA) inside the STN or the structural connectivity between the area stimulated and different regions of the brain are associated with dystonia improvement. Methods The response to DBS was measured by the Burke-Fahn-Marsden Dystonia Rating Scale (BFM) before and 7 months after surgery in patients with generalized isolated dystonia of inherited/idiopathic etiology. The sum of the two overlapping STN volumes from both hemisphereswas correlated with the change in BFM scores to assess whether the area stimulated inside the STN affects the clinical outcome. Structural connectivity estimates between the VTA (of each patient) and different brain regions were computed using a normative connectome taken from healthy subjects. Results Five patients were included. The baseline BFM motor and disability subscores were 78.30 +/- 13.55 (62.00-98.00) and 20.60 +/- 7.80 (13.00-32.00), respectively. Patients improved dystonic symptoms, though differently. No relationships were found between the VTA inside the STN and the BFM improvement after surgery (p = 0.463). However, the connectivity between the VTA and the cerebellum structurally correlated with dystonia improvement (p = 0.003). Conclusions These data suggest that the volume of the stimulated STN does not explain the variance in outcomes in dystonia. Still, the connectivity pattern between the region stimulated and the cerebellum is linked to outcomes of patients.
conferenceObject Multiple Intracranial Aneurysms: Incidence and Risk Factors(2019) SANTOS, Alexandra; ROSI JUNIOR, Jefferson; SILVA, Saul Almeida da; IGLESIO, Ricardo; CALDAS, Jose Guilherme; TEIXEIRA, Manoel; FIGUEIREDO, Ebervalarticle 2 Citação(ões) na Scopus Profilaxia de Trombose Venosa Profunda em Doentes com Traumatismo Cranioencefálico(2015) SILVA, Vinicius Trindade Gomes da; IGLESIO, Ricardo; PAIVA, Wellingson Silva; SIQUEIRA, Mario Gilberto; TEIXEIRA, Manoel JacobsenIntroduction: The risk of deep vein thrombosis is increased in patients with head trauma, but the prophylaxis against this event is confronted with the possible risk of worsening hemorrhagic injuries. In this article, we present an overview about deep vein thrombosis prophylaxis in patients with head trauma and we propose a practical protocol for clinical management of deep vein thrombosis prophylaxis. Material and Methods: We reviewed relevant papers cited in the Medline/PubMed, Cochrane, and Scielo databases from January 1998 to January 2014. Based on a search with the following search expression: ""deep venous thrombosis and prophylaxis and traumatic brain injury"", we found 44 eligible articles. Twenty-three papers were selected using criteria as published in English or Portuguese, patients in acute phase of moderate and severe traumatic brain injury and noninvasive mechanical prophylaxis or chemistry. Results: Head trauma alone is a risk factor for deep vein thrombosis. The chance of deep vein thrombosis is 2.59 times higher in patients with head trauma. The prevalence of deep vein thrombosis and pulmonary embolism in patients who have suffered head trauma is 20% in the literature, reaching 30% in some studies. Discussion and Conclusion: Head trauma alone is a risk factor for deep vein thrombosis and pulmonary thromboembolism and the risks inherent in this disease requires methods of prevention for these complications. Clinical trials are needed to establish the efficacy of prophylaxis and the best time to start medication for deep vein thrombosis in patients with traumatic brain injury.- Multiple and mirror intracranial aneurysms: study of prevalence and associated risk factors(2021) ROSI JUNIOR, Jefferson; SANTOS, Alexandra Gomes dos; SILVA, Saul Almeida da; IGLESIO, Ricardo Ferrareto; CALDAS, Jose Guillherme Mendes Pereira; RABELO, Nicollas Nunes; TEIXEIRA, Manoel Jacobsen; PREUL, Mark C.; SPETZLER, Robert F.; FIGUEIREDO, Eberval GadelhaObjective Multiple intracranial aneurysms (MIA) account for 30% of all intracranial aneurysms, while mirror aneurysms, a subgroup of MIA, are present in 5% of all patients with cerebral aneurysms. We investigated the risk factors associated with the presence of multiple and mirror intracranial aneurysms. Methods 1404 patients, 314 males (22.4%) and 1090 female (77.6%) were enrolled for this study. Diagnosis was performed with a digital subtraction angiography (DSA). Multiplicity was defined as the presence of two or more aneurysms and mirror aneurysms as one pair of aneurysms involving bilateral corresponding arteries. Patients were followed-up from September 2009 till August 2018. Individuals' characteristics such as sex, age, smoking, hypertension and use of contraceptives were evaluated. Results Five hundred and twelve patients (36.4%) were diagnosed with MIA, approximately 4%/year. We observed 203 pairs of mirror aneurysms, accounting for 406 aneurysms (13% of the population). There was an increased frequency of females with multiple (p < 0.001, OR = 1.883, 95% CI = 1.386-2.560) and mirror aneurysms (p < 0.001, OR = 2.828, 95% CI = 1.725-4.636). Smoking was associated with multiplicity (p< 0.001, OR = 1.458, 95% CI = 1.160-1.833), as well as advanced age (p < 0.001, OR = 1.938, 95% CI = 1.438-2.611), but there was no significant relation with presence of mirror aneurysms. We observed higher frequency of baby aneurysms (<3mm) in the group of patients with MIA, while giant aneurysms (>25 mm) were most found in patients with only one aneurysm (p < 0.001). No differences between patients who used contraceptives against patients who did not use were found (p = 0.600). Conclusions Gender and smoking, known risk factors to the development of a single intracranial aneurysm, are proportionally increased in patients with MIA. Hypertension and oral contraceptives were not associated with multiplicity.
- Interleaving Stimulation in Parkinson Disease: Interesting to Whom?(2019) FRANCA, Carina; BARBOSA, Egberto Reis; IGLESIO, Ricardo; TEIXEIRA, Manoel Jacobsen; CURY, Rubens GisbertBACKGROUND: Interleaving stimulation (ILS) is a stim-ulation strategy that can help the physician manage more challenging cases of patients with deep brain stimulation (DBS) for Parkinson disease (PD). It consists of altering 2 different programs on the electrode with the same frequency. OBJECTIVES: Our objective was to overview our patients experience with ILS and explore clinical scenarios in which ILS should be considered when programming DBS in patients with PD. METHODS: We retrospectively reviewed medical charts from 120 patients with PD treated with DBS between 2011 and 2018. RESULTS: Eighteen patients received ILS. One was excluded because of the medical chart was incomplete. The remaining 17 patients had subthalamic nucleus DBS (n = 14) and globus pallidus internus DBS (n = 3). Eight patients (47%) received ILS to improve rigidity and bradykinesia, 4 to improve dyskinesias, 4 because of refractory tremor, and 1 for gait management. Until the end of data collection, 13 of 17 patients (70%) were still on ILS, with a mean duration time of 28.8 months (range, 2-44 months) Four patients reported no benefit from ILS and had their program changed. CONCLUSIONS: Overall, ILS is useful 1) to use 2 contacts optimally improve 2 specific symptoms but have different therapeutic windows; 2) to avoid side effects related to current spreading to nearby areas; 3) to increase frequency in a small region; or 4) to stimulate a larger target area.
- Cavernous carotid aneurysms do not influence the occurrence of upstream ipsilateral aneurysm(2024) ROSI JUNIOR, Jefferson; SANTOS, Alexandra Gomes dos; SOLLA, Davi Jorge Fontoura; RABELO, Nicollas Nunes; SILVA, Saul Almeida da; IGLESIO, Ricardo Ferrareto; CALDAS, Jose Guillherme Mendes Pereira; TEIXEIRA, Manoel Jacobsen; FIGUEIREDO, Eberval GadelhaObjective Cavernous carotid aneurysms (CCA) comprehend around 5% of all intracranial aneurysms. The main risk factors for an intracranial aneurysm seem not to influence the incidence of CCAs. The aim of this study was to investigate the association of CCAs and the presence of upstream aneurysms. Methods 1403 patients, admitted in Hospital das Clinicas de Sao Paulo, Brazil, from September 2009 to August 2018, enrolled this study. Diagnosis was performed with Digital Subtraction Angiography (DSA). Upstream aneurysm was defined as an intracranial aneurysm on anterior cerebral circulation, ipsilateral to the CCA (if present) or crossing the midline (e.g. anterior communicating artery). Results 177 individuals were diagnosed with CCA (12.6% of the population), totalizing 225 aneurysms (10% of the total number of aneurysms, 2253). No association was found between CCA and UA (p= .090, OR: 1.323, 95% CI: 0.957-1.828). Studying only patients with CCA, multivariable analysis showed smoking as the only factor associated with UA (p= .010, OR: 0.436, 95% CI: 0.232-0.821). Conclusions Cavernous carotid aneurysms were present in 12% of our population, mostly in female. They seem to be independent of the modifiable risk factors already associated with intracranial aneurysms. A higher frequency of mirror aneurysms was seen in this location. CCA did not influence the presence of ipsilateral and anterior circulation aneurysms.
- Cholangiocarcinoma Seeding along a Ventriculoperitoneal Shunt Catheter: A Rare Initial Manifestation(2017) MORAIS, Barbara Albuquerque; IGLESIO, Ricardo Ferrareto; PETITTO, Carlo Emanuel; PINTO, Fernando Campos Gomes; TEIXEIRA, Manoel JacobsenCholangiocarcinoma accounts for less than 2% of all malignant neoplasms. Its cutaneous metastases are extremely rare, accounting for 0.0002% of all cases. The ventriculoperitoneal (VP) shunt has been considered a potential route for tumor dissemination. This type of tumor proliferation has been well documented in patients with intra-abdominal metastases secondary to brain tumors and, less frequently, brain metastases secondary to intra-abdominal tumors. In spite of that, there are few reports of cutaneous metastases along the VP shunt catheter trajectory. We present the case of a cholangiocarcinoma cutaneous metastasis at the VP shunt trajectory as the first clinical sign of this type of tumor. The patient had undergone the shunt insertion 4 years earlier due to a hydrocephaly secondary to a subarachnoid hemorrhage. After diagnosis, she was referred to chemotherapy and oncology follow-up. In the literature, 30 cases of cutaneous metastasis of cholangiocarcinoma were reported. Dissemination has been described involving percutaneous biliary drainage and distant sites. However, the case presented in this study alerts us about the possibility of cutaneous metastasis of intra-abdominal tumors in the trajectory of VP shunt catheters.
