We would like to introduce you to the winner of the 2022 award in the nomination " Cavernous malformation (cavernoma) is a congenital vascular neoplasm of the brain. , It consists of pathological cavities separated by partitions and filled with blood. Cavernous malformations can exist asymptomatically or cause neurological symptoms: epileptic seizures, hemiparesis, blurred vision, damage to cranial nerves.

A patient with such a pathology applied to the vascular neurosurgical department. The neoplasm was located in the brainstem. First of all, the anatomy and functional significance of the brain stem makes surgical interventions in this area extremely difficult.. Due to the compact arrangement of a large number of various, including vital formations in the brain stem, any, even minimal hemorrhages from the cavernous trunk cause neurological disorders.. Also, minimal inaccuracies in the work of the surgeon can lead to serious complications..

The operation to remove the cavernoma was performed under the control of a neurophysiological monitor.. Intraoperative neurophysiological monitoring is a procedure for continuous monitoring of the functional integrity of the nervous system during operations on the brain and spinal cord.. Electrodes attached to the appropriate anatomy of the patient continuously transmit information about whether important structures are affected during the operation.

In the postoperative period, our patient showed an improvement in the functions of the nervous system, she was discharged with recovery and returned to a full life.. No further recurrence was found on follow-up tomograms..

We are proud to have such professionals in our team.!
