Abstract: Brain retraction is a necessary yet potentially damaging requirement of accessing lesions located in deep structures. The development of minimally-invasive tubular retractors (MITRs) provides the theoretical advantage of maximizing visualization of and access to deep-seated… read more here.

DOI: 10.25259/sni-25-2019
Abstract: Background: Subependymomas are rare benign tumors found primarily in the lateral and fourth ventricles. Patients become symptomatic when the tumor obstructs cerebrospinal fluid pathways. We present a novel minimally invasive technique for lateral ventricular subependymoma… read more here.
