Here in Neurosurgery Publications, we provide evidence that radiotherapy, chemotherapy and gross total resection may improve survival outcomes in very elderly patients (>=80 years of age) treated for #Glioblastoma Great work Julian Gendreau and team!

Our analysis of 3.2M TBI patients in Neurosurgery Publications shows no “July Effect” 🚨🏥🧠. Admissions in July have lower mortality and complication rates, showing that teaching hospitals maintain excellent levels of care year round. #Neurosurgery #TBI #JulyEffect

Thank you Pavel Pichardo-Rojas MD, MSc. and Yoshua Esquenazi, M.D, FAANS+ for this insightful commentary of our recent work in Neurosurgery Publications We agree future multi-center collaborative efforts should be pursued in the very elderly glioblastoma patient population!

Recently, #MelanieHorowitz+ utilized the SEER database to measure outcomes in very elderly (>=80 years of age) patients with #glioblastoma She provides evidence that #surgery, #radiotherapy and #chemotherapy may continue to provide a survival advantage in this patient population

Mini-pterional versus supraorbital "keyhole" craniotomies for microsurgical clipping of cerebral aneurysms. The mini-pterional is a workhorse, much like the pterional. Both the PKC and SOKC --> similar outcomes. Redi Rahmani Julian Gendreau Michael T. Lawton, MD bit.ly/3WyEt3S

Our study identifies variables predictive of achieving adequate aneurysm occlusion following WEB deployment and then integrates them into a predictive calculator (bit.ly/3WQDr3d) that estimates this likelihood. Great work! SNIS Info CV Section journals.sagepub.com/doi/abs/10.117…

In this article, Foad Kazemi+ used the Neighborhood Socioeconomic Status (NSES) Index to assess high-value care outcomes after #glioblastoma surgery Poorer NSES scores were associated with longer LOS, non-routine discharges and non-compliance with Stupp protocol Journal of Neuro-Oncology

#NEUNew Clinical Predictors of Overall Survival in Very Elderly Patients With Glioblastoma: A National Cancer Database Multivariable Analysis bit.ly/4jHifrg by Julian Gendreau Johns Hopkins Medicine Isaac Yang MD CNS Douglas Kondziolka

Here, #SaiReddy+ performed a study including 590 patients treated for intracranial #meningioma (>=80 year of age). Aggressive surgical intervention was not associated with survival benefit. However, #radiotherapy was associated with survival benefit in this patient population.

Here in Endocrine Society Journals, Miguel Angel Jimenez+ assess 57,807 patients treated for #pituitary adenoma from 2004-2019 They found significant racial and socioeconomic #disparities in access to high-volume centers for adult patients seeking surgical resection

Lower access to #PituitaryAdenoma resection at high-volume facilities was associated with older age, non-White race/ethnicity, and use of #Medicaid.

💬 Viewpoint: Transgender and gender-diverse individuals face barriers to equitable #cancer care due to their underrepresentation in #oncology research and inadequate inclusion in cancer registries. ja.ma/4lEU9x5

Kudos on this JAMA viewpoint Julian Gendreau!
