Parasagittal meningiomas are challenging due to their proximity to the superior sagittal sinus and draining veins, often limiting gross total resection. Limited data exist on the efficacy of Gamma Knife Radiosurgery (GKSRS) in this progression-prone region. We evaluated the effectiveness of GKSRS in achieving tumor control.
Lower back pain is a chronic condition that affects hundreds of millions of people around the world. A simple exercise could be a big help. And the best thing? You don't even have to get up to do it.

Think fish and seafood, meat, non-starchy vegetables, berries, nuts, seeds, eggs and even high-fat dairy products. University of Missouri researchers are now testing just how powerful these foods can be.
This case demonstrates that Gamma Knife-based hSRS may achieve durable control of solitary brain metastases from thymic carcinoma without the need for surgery or WBRT. It also emphasizes the importance of long-term neuroimaging surveillance in thymic carcinoma due to the potential for delayed central nervous system dissemination.
Three research hospitals in the Republic of Korea are reporting that restless leg syndrome was associated with an increased risk of Parkinson's disease, with 1.6% of patients with restless leg syndrome developing Parkinson's disease vs. 1.0% in matched controls and a shorter average time to diagnosis at a 15-year horizon.
