ObjectiveTo analyze the causes of unrelieved epilepsy thoroughly in children with isolated focal cortical dysplasia (FCD) based on MRI.MethodsRetrospective analysis of MRI and clinical data of 21 children with isolated FCD during July 2014 to January 2018, which confirmed by pathology and unrelieved thoroughly after operation performed, the pathological types and MRI signs were analyzed, as well as the frequency of different MRI signs in FCD of each pathological type. Analyzed the possible factors of surgical failure.ResultsAmong the 21 cases, there were 15 males and 6 females, with an average age of (5.7±0.3) years and an average course of disease of (3.4±0.5) years.MRI signs of this part of the children were mainly manifested by blurred focal gray matter boundaries, abnormal cortical structure changes (thickening and/or thinning), transmantle signs (abnormal cone signals extending from subcortical white matter to the ventricle) and abnormal gray matter signals, which were similar to MRI signs of FCD with satisfactory postoperative epilepsy control. 17 cases (80.9%) appeared epileptic discharge after operation in the EEG monitoring area 2 weeks to 6 months, FCD type I and type Ⅱ accounted for 35.3%, 64.7% respectively. During intraoperative EEG monitoring, no epileptiform discharge was observed in the transmantle sign region in 6 cases, and the region was retained, and only the surrounding abnormal discharge cortex was removed, complete removal of the tansmantle sign and surrounding abnormal discharge area was performed in 2 cases, and different degrees of epileptic epilepsy were observed in both methods.ConclusionMRI signs of isolated FCD with unrelieved epilepsy after operation were nonspecific, there were still epilepsy of varying degrees after all epileptogenic lesions have been removed, the cause may be related to potential epileptic factors.

Deep brain stimulation (DBS), as a major branch of functional neurosurgery, has been widely used in the treatment of diseases such as Parkinson disease, primary tremor, and muscle tone disorder. It can effectively alleviate patients’ symptoms, reduce drug dependence, and minimize adverse drug reactions. In recent years, with the rapid development of artificial intelligence (AI) in the medical field, it has gradually penetrated into multiple aspects of DBS. This article reviews the current application status of AI technology in DBS therapy and explores its future development prospects, providing new solutions for significant improvement in patients’ quality of life.
ObjectiveTo explore the value and role of post-processing techniques such as 3D reconstruction in the online education mode in neurosurgery undergraduate clinical probation teaching.MethodsA retrospective analysis method was used to collect 120 clinical 5-year medical students who were trained in neurosurgery at West China Hospital of Sichuan University from January 2019 to May 2020, including 40 students receiving traditional imaging materials offline (control group 1), 40 students being taught on image post-processing technology offline (control group 2), and 40 students being taught on-line image post-processing technology during the novel coronavirus epidemic (observational group). The students’ scores of departmental rotation examination and feedback survey results on teaching satisfaction were collected, and multiple comparison was conducted between the observational group and the two control groups respectively.ResultIn the control group 1, the control group 2, and the observational group, the theoretical test scores were 36.80±3.22, 38.17±2.61, and 38.97±2.79, respectively; the case analysis scores were 37.05±2.01, 38.40±2.62, and 39.25±2.88, respectively; the total scores were 73.85±5.06, 76.57±4.29, and 78.10±4.53, respectively; the scores of interest in teaching were 84.47±3.71, 86.05±2.87, and 86.82±2.60, respectively; the scores of mastery of knowledge were 82.85±4.39, 84.90±2.72, and 85.78±2.36, respectively; and the scores of overall satisfaction with teaching were 84.17±3.45, 85.97±2.64, and 86.37±2.59, respectively. The differences among the three groups were all statistically significant (P<0.05). The observational group differed significantly from the control group 1 in all the above scores (P<0.05), while did not differed from the control group 2 in any of the above scores (P>0.05).ConclusionsIn neurosurgery internship activities, the online application of image post-processing techniques such as 3D reconstruction will help students establish 3D spatial concepts, better understand the brain anatomy, and improve students’ academic performance and acceptance.
ObjectiveTo analyze targeted surveillance results of nosocomial infection in Neurosurgical Intensive Care Unit (ICU) and investigate the characteristics of nosocomial infection, in order to provide reference for constituting the intervention measures. MethodsWe monitored the incidence of nosocomial infection, the application and catheter-related infection of invasive operation, and the situation of multiple resistant bacteria screening and drug resistance characteristics of each patient who stayed more than two days in neurosurgical ICU during January to December 2013. ResultsThere were a total of 1 178 patients, and the total ICU stay was 4 144 days. The nosocomial infection rate was 4.92%, and the day incidence of nosocomial infection was 13.75‰. The nosocomial infection rate was significantly higher in January and between July and December compared with other months. Ventilator utilization rate was 9.75%; ventilator-associated pneumonia incidence density was 14.85 per 1 000 catheter-days; central line utilization rate was 28.40%; central line-associated bloodstream infection incidence density was 0.85 per 1 000 catheter-days; urinary catheter utilization rate was 97.90%; and the incidence density of catheter-associated urinary tract infection was 0.25 per 1 000 catheter-days. ConclusionThe nosocomial infection rate has an obvious seasonal characteristic in neurosurgical intensive care unit, so it is necessary to make sure that the hospital infection control full-time and part-time staff should be on alert, issue timely risk warning, and strengthen the risk management of hospital infection.
目的 总结神经外科复杂脑脊髓血管病杂交手术的护理配合经验。 方法 回顾分析2011 年4 月－2012 年5月华西医院手术室完成的 56例神经外科杂交手术的临床资料，总结神经外科杂交手术的护理配合经验。 结果 所有手术均顺利进行，未出现明显危及患者安全的情况。 结论 神经外科Hybrid手术治疗复杂脑脊髓血管病较普通手术更为安全有效。但手术护理准备及配合更为复杂，在手术室布局、手术流程方面需要医护协调专门进行优化。有神经外科专业经验的护士经过一段时间专门培训后担任手术巡回及器械护士更有利于手术的顺利、安全进行。
