Early and late complications after open and endoscopic neurosurgery for complex skull base and craniofacial pathology: Case series, illustrative cases, and review

Predictive model for preoperative risk calculation of cerebrospinal fluid leak after resection of midline craniofacial mass lesions

“…We found one published article, which is dealing with early and late complications after open and endoscopic neurosurgery for complex skull base and craniofacial pathology. 36 In this work, the incidence of CSF leaks was 13.3% in the series of 60 patients (compared with 9.6% in the present study). In some areas, our results are in concordance with the published data.…”

Partial Obstruction of the Endotracheal Tube by a Part of the Metallic Stylet; Case Report and Review of the Literature

“…The report highlights the importance of regular monitoring and vigilant post-intubation assessments. 19 The significance of this case report lies in its potential to raise awareness among clinicians, anesthesiologists, and critical care teams about the risks associated with using metallic stylets during intubation. Through an in-depth examination of the literature and a critical analysis of similar reported cases, this report aims to contribute to the existing knowledge on this subject and emphasize the importance of vigilant airway management practices.…”
