     View Summary

    <p>We report a concurrent case of aneurysmal subarachnoid hemorrhage and acute aortic dissection. A 47-year-old woman presented to our hospital unconscious. Subarachnoid hemorrhage was diagnosed by brain computed tomography on arrival. Computed tomography angiography revealed 2 aneurysms in the right internal carotid artery. Computed tomography angiography from the cervical to thoracic regions, which was initially performed to inspect the access route for interventional radiology, demonstrated the presence of Stanford type A acute aortic dissection. Neck clipping and total aortic arch replacement were performed for the 2 aneurysms and the acute aortic dissection, respectively. Only a few reports have described the coexistence of acute aortic dissection and subarachnoid hemorrhage. Managing these 2 pathologies requires a thorough evaluation of each therapeutic strategy and careful management of the patient's systemic and neurological conditions. We believe our case report enhances the understanding of this specific pathological condition and will provide valuable insights for treating future patients with similar conditions.</p>

     View Summary

    Objective: To elucidate the genetic etiology of sporadic vestibular schwannomas (VSs) and investigate the correlation between NF2 inactivation mechanisms and preoperative clinical characteristics, including hearing function and tumor growth. Methods: Nineteen patients who underwent VS resection at our otorhinolaryngology or neurosurgery department between June 2020 and March 2022 were included in this study. Whole-exome sequencing (WES) was performed to detect somatic changes in NF2. Additionally, NF2 promoter methylation status and copy number changes were evaluated using methylation analysis and multiple ligation-dependent probe amplification (MLPA). Preoperative clinical data, including pure tone audiometry, speech discrimination scores, and tumor growth rates, were collected and analyzed for correlations with genetic findings. Results: WES identified somatic alterations in both NF2 alleles in 16 cases (84.2%). The addition of methylation analysis and MLPA confirmed biallelic NF2 inactivation in all cases. NF2 promoter methylation was suggested to be associated with hearing loss and tumor progression. A weak correlation between NF2 expression levels and tumor growth rate was observed (r = 0.21), while no significant correlation was found between NF2 expression and pure tone audiometry or speech discrimination scores. Conclusion: Comprehensive genetic analyses, including WES, methylation analysis, and MLPA, are essential for identifying NF2 inactivation mechanisms in sporadic VSs. The findings suggest that NF2 methylation may contribute to variations in clinical presentation. Further studies with larger cohorts are necessary to clarify the role of epigenetic modifications in disease progression and their potential impact on patient management strategies. Level of Evidence: 4.

     View Summary

    <p><b>Objective:</b> Although vagal paragangliomas (VPs) and carotid body paragangliomas (CBPs) are both neck paragangliomas, they have different surgical risks and clinical courses. In this report, we investigated the feeding arteries of VPs compared with CBPs, with an aim to better differentiate these tumors and improve our understanding of their angioarchitecture.</p><p><b>Methods</b>: We conducted a retrospective analysis of angiography data from 3 cases of VPs and 10 tumors from 9 cases of CBP. For each case, we evaluated the level of the vertebral body corresponding to the upper margin of the tumor, the tumor size, the arterial supply of the tumor, the topological relationship between the external carotid artery and internal carotid artery and the tumor, the details of preoperative embolization, and the incidence of postoperative neurological deficits.</p><p><b>Results</b>: In all 3 cases of VPs, the blood supply originated from the occipital, vertebral, and ascending pharyngeal arteries. By contrast, among the 10 CBP tumors, 3 were supplied by the occipital artery, 1 was supplied by the vertebral artery, and all 10 were fed by the ascending pharyngeal artery. VPs, when compared to CBPs, exhibited larger tumor sizes, a higher positioning of the upper margin of the tumor, and a lack of splaying of the internal and external carotid arteries, compressing both forward. Additionally, preoperative embolization was frequently performed in cases of VPs. Furthermore, the postoperative occurrence of complications such as hoarseness and vocal cord paralysis was also higher.</p><p><b>Conclusion</b>: VPs originate from the inferior ganglion of the vagus nerve, which is chiefly nourished by the vertebral artery. This original arterial distribution may explain the angioarchitecture observed in this study. This study may facilitate the better understanding of the VP angioarchitecture and safe and efficient embolization for them.</p>

     View Summary

    49 microRNAs those express in SAH patients’ sera lower than 1/4 and other 27 microRNAs those expressed more than twice compared to those in control sera were identified. Degeneration of basal membrane, and peeling of endofeet of astrocyte from basal membrane was identified in hippocampus of mouse SAH model 1 day after procedure (duration of ICP elevation in the model was as long as 5 s). Three days after procedure, GFAP positive cell was decreased at the same site but no quantitative nor morphological change in neuron was observed. From the current result, we speculate degeneration of NVU starts abound microvasculature after SAH, and emerges to surrounding astrocyte that leads to neurological deterioration.

     View Summary

    The aim of this study is to establish a new integrated measuring system by fMRI, MEG and NIRS for evaluation of higher brain function. First, activated BOLD signals were observed during electrostimulation on bilateral median nerves by fMRI. Distributions of activated BOLD signals were evaluated in the three conditions, no delay, 30 msec delay and 100 msec delay. As a result, the smallest activated area was observed at the primary sensory area in the 30 msec delay condition. A MEG study revealed that no waves at 76 msec were observed in the 30 msec delay condition. Second, it was evaluated how the brain functions during loss-resulting or tie-resulting pursuant paper-rock-scissors with the dominant or non-dominant hands, using a 3-tesla functional MRI in normal right-handed subjects. Interestingly, the right SMA was activated more strongly during tie-resulting pursuant paper-rock-scissors with the left hand, while the left SMA was activated more strongly during loss-resulting pursuant paper-rock-scissors with the left hand. These findings suggest that the left SMA might be associated with inhibition of stereotypical performance and monitoring of conflict in the subject's mind. Last, we evaluated changes in blood concentration of hemoglobin by NIRS in the patients with severe carotid arterial stenosis before and after surgery. Before surgery, an evident elevation of blood concentration of hemoglobin was observed at the periprimary hand motor area during hand grasp task, although it disappeared after surgery. Our study revealed that further investigation is required to clarify more detailed higher brain functions, and for the achievement of this goal, it was especially important to compare the distributions of activated brain area by between fMRI and MEG during electrostimulation on bilateral median nerves.
