The skull serves as a frequent site for metastasis from systemic malignant tumors. Predominantly, prostate, breast, and lung cancers constitute the primary sources of cranial metastases, collectively accounting for over 70% of secondary skull tumors. These occurrences often targe...
Introduction: The global incidence of spinal cord injury (SCI) is on the rise. Family caregivers of patients with SCI play a significant role assisting with care at home, to help them integrate into the community. The caregiving role requires support to cope with the physical, ps...
Introduction: Neurological manifestations associated with HIV are frequent, with variable clinical signs. The aim of our study was to characterize the epidemiological, clinical, paraclinical, therapeutic, evolutionary and prognostic aspects of neurological disorders in HIV. Meth...
Background: Meningiomas are the most common extra axial tumors of brain accounting 13-26% of primary intracranial neoplasm. They are the most common non glial tumor of central nervous system (CNS). Meningiomas arise from the arachnoid cells called meningothelial cell and appear a...
The reaction characterized by inflammation in the brain or the spinal column is known medically as "neuroinflammation." The central nervous system is impacted by neurodegeneration, which is epitomized by the loss of neural functioning and structure. Neurodegeneration occurs as a...
Giant axonal neuropathy (GAN) is a rare, relatively rapidly progressive hereditary neuropathy culminating into death by second or third decade. Simple clinical clues in general physical examination can aid in diagnosis of this rare disease. We report an 11-year-old Hindu male, bo...
Background: There is growing evidence that Covid 19 is associated with a myriad of neurological complications. There is still a paucity of understanding of the various biological underpinnings directing this association. Results: This was a review of the literature on various neu...
