Digre, Kathleen B.; Skuster, Denise Z. | Neurologic conditions presenting as psychiatric disorders. | Understanding underlying neuroanatomic function helps physicians to localize defects and search for treatable neurologic conditions. Neurologic conditions such as Huntington's chorea, Wilson's disease, Gille de la Tourette syndrome, brain tumors, encephalitis and meningitis, neurodegenerative condit... | Psychiatric Diagnosis; Neurologic Disease | 1992-06-15 |

Schmidt, Meic H. | Is vertebral augmentation the right choice for cancer patients with painful vertebral compression fractures? | Cancer-related fractures of the spine are different from osteoporotic ones, not only in pathogenesis but also in natural history and treatment. Higher class evidence now supports offering balloon kyphoplasty to a patient with cancer, provided that the pain is significant in intensity, has a position... | 2012-01-01 | |

Kestle, John R. W.; Brockmeyer, Douglas Lee | Optic pathway gliomas: a review | Optic pathway gliomas represent approximately 3-5% of childhood intracranial tumors. They usually occur in children during the first decade of life and are seen in 11-30% of patients with neurofibromatosis Type 1 (NF1). Although these tumors are typically low-grade gliomas, the clinical course and n... | Optic pathway glioma; Hypothalamus glioma; Neurofibromatosis Type 1 | 2007 |

Couldwell, William T. | Surgical fidelity: comparing the microscope and the endoscope | Background: Both the microscope and the endoscope are widely used as visualization tools in neurosurgery; however, surgical dexterity when operating with endoscopic visual control may differ. The aim of this study was to compare the surgical fidelity when using each of these visualization tools. Met... | 2013-01-01 | |

Couldwell, William T. | Resident curriculum guidelines for neurosurgery | This curriculum was created to detail the body of knowledge that should be attained by an individual completing residency training in neurological surgery. The specific structure of resident education in neurological surgery is defined by the American Board of Neurological Surgery, and each program... | Residency training; Neurological surgery | 2000 |

Couldwell, William T. | Management of pituitary adenomas | We present an overview of the management of pituitary adenomas, with discussions of microanatomy, of diagnostic studies of general neuroendocrine function, and of radiologic evaluation. We discuss the diagnosis of pituitary adenoma and its treatment with sections on null cell, prolactin (PRL)-secre... | Pituitary adenoma; Transsphenoidal surgery; Corticotropin; Prolactin; Growth hormone; Transcranial surgery | 1994 |

Dailey, Andrew T. | Pathophysiology of oral pharyngeal apraxia and mutism following posterior fossa tumor resection in children | Mutism following posterior fossa tumor resection in pediatric patients has been previously recognized, although its pathophysiology remains unclear. A review of the available literature reveals 33 individuals with this condition, with only a few adults documented in the population. All of these pati... | Vermis; Posterior fossa tumor; Pediatric patients | 1995 |

Dailey, Andrew T. | Surgical treatment of occipitocervical instability | OBJECTIVE: Instability of the occipitocervical junction can be a challenging surgical problem because of the unique anatomic and biomechanical characteristics of this region. We review the causes of instability and the development of surgical techniques to stabilize the occipitocervical junction. ... | Occipitocervical instability | 2008 |
