Abstract
Arteriovenous malformations (AVMs) are complex vascular lesions that can pose significant risk for spontaneous hemorrhage, seizures, and symptoms related to ischemia and venous hypertension.1 Microsurgical management of AVMs requires a deep understanding of the surrounding anatomy and precise identification of the lesion characteristics. We demonstrate the use of augmented reality in the localization of arterial feeders and draining veins in relation to bordering normal structures (Video 1). A 66-year-old man presented with several episodes of severe right frontal headaches. Magnetic resonance imaging revealed an AVM along the right frontal pole. Subsequent computed tomography angiography demonstrated arterial supply from the right anterior cerebral artery with venous drainage to the superior sagittal sinus. Due to the size, noneloquent location, and superficial pattern of venous drainage, the patient elected to proceed with microsurgery. A virtual planning platform was used in preparation for surgery. Augmented reality integrated with neuronavigation was used during microsurgical resection. Postoperative angiography showed complete resection of the AVM. The patient was discharged home on postoperative day 3 with no complications. He remains neurologically well at 4 months of follow-up.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Fragmentation, disconnection, or entrapment of an in-use microcatheter during neuro-endovascular procedures is a known risk. Often a benign entity, retained catheters are not infrequently observed, but severe complications including thrombus, thromboembolic events, pseudoaneurysm, and limb ischemia have been described, necessitating retrieval. This technical case report demonstrates the safe use of an external carotid artery (ECA) approach for ligation and removal of a retained microcatheter after middle meningeal artery (MMA) embolization. This article also demonstrates the use of live intraoperative fluoroscopy as a surgical adjunct to ensure that the catheter is fully removed without any injury, shearing, or breakage during removal. METHODS A 66-year-old male patient presented with bilateral subdural hematomas to an outside hospital. He subsequently underwent evacuation of the hematomas followed by a right-sided MMA embolization, complicated by Onyx (Medtronic, Minneapolis, MN) entrapment of the microcatheter in the MMA. The patient was asymptomatic, but there was significant concern about continuing antiplatelet/anticoagulation therapy in the presence of the subdural hematoma. We proceeded with an open surgical approach for catheter retrieval. As the catheter was withdrawn, intraoperative fluoroscopy demonstrated complete removal without any retained fragments. RESULTS The patient recovered without event and was discharged on postoperative day 1. On follow-up the patient continued to do well without any complications from the fragment that remained in the external carotid circulation. CONCLUSIONS This case and accompanying video demonstrates the effective use of open ECA surgical approach to retrieve the retained microcatheter after an MMA embolization. This approach allowed for safe and effective removal of the microcatheter while significantly reducing complication risks.

Abstract
ABSTRACT Chordoid meningiomas, rare meningioma variants, are characterized by their histopathological features and clinical behavior resembling that of other chondroid/myxoid neoplasms. We present a case of pathology-proven chordoid meningioma imaged with both 68Ga-DOTATATE and 18F-FDG PET images during a complicated postoperative course with multiple episodes of local recurrence and, ultimately, extracranial metastasis. This case underscores the aggressive behavior of chordoid meningiomas while highlighting how molecular imaging plays an important role in clinical monitoring and guidance of management.

Abstract
BACKGROUND AND OBJECTIVE Glioblastoma (GBM) is one of the most aggressive and lethal human cancers. Intra-tumoral genetic heterogeneity poses a significant challenge for treatment. Biopsy is invasive, which motivates the development of non-invasive, MRI-based machine learning (ML) models to quantify intra-tumoral genetic heterogeneity for each patient. This capability holds great promise for enabling better therapeutic selection to improve patient outcome. METHODS We proposed a novel Weakly Supervised Ordinal Support Vector Machine (WSO-SVM) to predict regional genetic alteration status within each GBM tumor using MRI. WSO-SVM was applied to a unique dataset of 318 image-localized biopsies with spatially matched multiparametric MRI from 74 GBM patients. The model was trained to predict the regional genetic alteration of three GBM driver genes (EGFR, PDGFRA and PTEN) based on features extracted from the corresponding region of five MRI contrast images. For comparison, a variety of existing ML algorithms were also applied. Classification accuracy of each gene were compared between the different algorithms. The SHapley Additive exPlanations (SHAP) method was further applied to compute contribution scores of different contrast images. Finally, the trained WSO-SVM was used to generate prediction maps within the tumoral area of each patient to help visualize the intra-tumoral genetic heterogeneity. RESULTS WSO-SVM achieved 0.80 accuracy, 0.79 sensitivity, and 0.81 specificity for classifying EGFR; 0.71 accuracy, 0.70 sensitivity, and 0.72 specificity for classifying PDGFRA; 0.80 accuracy, 0.78 sensitivity, and 0.83 specificity for classifying PTEN; these results significantly outperformed the existing ML algorithms. Using SHAP, we found that the relative contributions of the five contrast images differ between genes, which are consistent with findings in the literature. The prediction maps revealed extensive intra-tumoral region-to-region heterogeneity within each individual tumor in terms of the alteration status of the three genes. CONCLUSIONS This study demonstrated the feasibility of using MRI and WSO-SVM to enable non-invasive prediction of intra-tumoral regional genetic alteration for each GBM patient, which can inform future adaptive therapies for individualized oncology.

Abstract
In a period when the budding field of neurosurgery was believed to have little promise, Dr Alfred Washington Adson founded and led the first neurosurgical department at Mayo Clinic. He was not without reservations-surgical intervention for neurological conditions was rarely pursued because of poor outcomes and high complication rates, and Dr Adson acknowledged his early concerns about the future of neurosurgery in his memoirs. However, his education, mentorship, his training, and his first neurosurgical cases helped to shape the impact he ultimately had on the field and his legacy as a neurosurgeon. Dr Adson trained with several renowned Mayo general surgeons, notably his mentor Dr Emil Beckman, whose desire for operative precision shaped Dr Adson's drive to develop his own skills as a surgeon. Two years into his residency, he became the youngest staff surgeon and was tasked with managing the neurosurgical cases at Mayo. The five neurosurgical cases overseen by Dr Adson in the next year illuminated the opportunity for neurosurgery to drastically improve the lives of patients. Dr Adson, given the option of continuing as either a general surgeon or a neurosurgeon, ultimately chose to pursue neurosurgery. This article seeks to provide a historical perspective on the neurosurgeon Dr Alfred Washington Adson using primary and secondary accounts from the Mayo archives, highlighting his contributions to the early understanding of intracranial pathology and how his early experiences as a trainee developed into a personal passion for self-improvement, education, and advocacy for health care in America.

Abstract
Pineal region tumors are challenging lesions in terms of surgical accessibility and removal.1 The complexity is compounded by the infrequency and heterogeneity of pineal neoplasms.2,3 In Video 1, we present the case of a 39-year-old woman who presented with progressive headaches and vision impairment. She underwent microsurgical resection for a pineal parenchymal tumor of intermediate differentiation. We discuss the rationale, risks, and benefits of treatment for this patient, as well as provide a detailed overview of the alternative approaches that may be considered. Additionally, we discuss the unique anatomic considerations for each approach and include a virtual reality-compatible 3-dimensional fly-through to highlight the relationship between the tumor and relevant venous anatomy. The patient tolerated the procedure well with excellent neurologic outcome, and her follow-up imaging showed no evidence of tumor recurrence.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Extracranial-intracranial (EC-IC) bypass is an established therapeutic option for Moyamoya disease (MMD). However, little is known about the effects of racial and ethnic disparities on outcomes. This study assessed trends in EC-IC bypass outcomes among MMD patients stratified by race and ethnicity. METHODS Utilizing the US National Inpatient Sample, we identified MMD patients undergoing EC-IC bypass between 2002 and 2020. Demographic and hospital-level data were collected. Multivariable analysis was conducted to identify independent factors associated with outcomes. Trend analysis was performed using piecewise joinpoint regression. RESULTS Out of 14,062 patients with MMD, 1771 underwent EC-IC bypass. Of these, 60.59% were White, 17.56% were Black, 12.36% were Asians, 8.47% were Hispanic, and 1.02% were Native Americans. Nonhome discharge was noted in 21.7% of cases, with a 6.7% death and 3.8% postoperative neurologic complications rates. EC-IC bypass was more commonly performed in Native Americans (23.38%) and Asians (17.76%). Hispanics had the longest mean length of stay (8.4 days) and lower odds of nonhome discharge compared to Whites (odds ratio: 0.64; 95% confidence interval: 0.40-1.03; P = 0.04). Patients with Medicaid, private insurance, self-payers, and insurance paid by other governments had lower odds of nonhome discharge than those with Medicare. CONCLUSION This study highlights racial and socioeconomic disparities in EC-IC bypass for patients with MMD. Despite these disparities, we did not find any significant difference in the quality of care. Addressing these disparities is essential for optimizing MMD outcomes.

Abstract
INTRODUCTION Skull-base chordomas are aggressive tumors with a propensity for recurrence/progression. Even with standard of care (SoC), 5-year recurrence rates are variable (19%-54%). This high recurrence/progression rate correlates with increased morbidity and mortality. We sought to analyze a multicenter cohort of skull base chordomas to identify predictors of progression in patients receiving SoC. METHODS The [Blinded]-Neurosurgery data registry was queried for skull base chordomas treated from 2008-2020. Patients with the histopathologic diagnosis of chordoma were included. The cohort was composed of patients with preoperative and postoperative magnetic resonance imaging. Tumor volume and radiologic characteristics were obtained from axial T2 sequences using a Digital Imaging and Communications in Medicine viewer. Survival analysis was performed using Kaplan-Meier method, and time-to-event multivariate regression was performed to identify independent predictors of progression. RESULTS The cohort included 195 patients, of which 66 patients met inclusion criteria; median age was 44, and 28 (42%) were females. Fifty-four (82%) received SoC, 7 (11%) resection only, and 5 (8%) radiotherapy only. Median preoperative and postoperative tumor volumes were 11.55 cm3 (0.33-54.89) and 0.34 cm3 (0-42.52), respectively. Recurrence rate with SoC was 37%. Postoperative tumor volume (P = 0.010) correlated with progression. A postoperative volume of >4.9 cm3 (P = 0.044), ≤81.3% of tumor resection (P = 0.02), and lower-clivus location (P < 0.005) correlated with decreased time to progression. CONCLUSIONS Skull base chordomas can be challenging to resect. Even though maximal resection and radiotherapy improve rate of tumor progression, many of these lesions eventually recur. We have identified a postoperative tumor volume of ≥4.9 cm3 and extent of resection of ≤81.3% in this cohort as predictors of progression in patients receiving SoC.

Abstract
BACKGROUND PIT1 is a pituitary transcription factor that is associated with either growth hormone (GH), prolactin (PRL), or thyroid-stimulating hormone (TSH) production. However, PIT1-positive pituitary neuroendocrine tumors (PitNETs) are occasionally immunonegative for GH, PRL, and TSH. This paper describes the clinical presentation of PIT1 positive however immunonegative PitNETs. METHODS We conducted a retrospective analysis, identifying 228 PIT1-positive PitNET patients between 2017 and 2022. Out of these, ten (4%) tested negative for GH, PRL, and TSH. Functioning PitNETs were defined as those causing hormonal excess symptoms or hormonal overproduction. RESULTS As for 10 patients immunonegative for all three hormones however PIT1-positive, the mean ( ± standard deviation) age was 46 ± 13 years with 70% women. Six patients exhibited signs of excess GH or PRL, and three had visual problems. Additionally, one patient had secondary hypothyroidism and adrenal insufficiency resulting from the mass effect. All tumors were macroadenoma, with a median volume of 2.1 cm3 (range, 0.8-17.5 cm3). Gross total resection was attained in six patients by trans-sphenoidal surgery. Postoperatively, eight patients experienced clinical improvement: three in vision, two in amenorrhea, two in headache, and one in acromegaly symptoms. Biochemical improvement was observed in six patients, with all experiencing remission in hormonal excess and one showing improvement in secondary hypothyroidism. Stereotactic radiosurgery was performed in three patients. CONCLUSIONS Patients with functioning PitNETs may exhibit PIT1 staining without GH, PRL, or TSH staining. Hormonally active tumors exist in this patient population; therefore, close endocrine follow-up is necessary despite the lack of staining for GH, PRL, and TSH.

Abstract
Brain cancers pose a novel set of difficulties due to the limited accessibility of human brain tumor tissue. For this reason, clinical decision-making relies heavily on MR imaging interpretation, yet the mapping between MRI features and underlying biology remains ambiguous. Standard (clinical) tissue sampling fails to capture the full heterogeneity of the disease. Biopsies are required to obtain a pathological diagnosis and are predominantly taken from the tumor core, which often has different traits to the surrounding invasive tumor that typically leads to recurrent disease. One approach to solving this issue is to characterize the spatial heterogeneity of molecular, genetic, and cellular features of glioma through the intraoperative collection of multiple image-localized biopsy samples paired with multi-parametric MRIs. We have adopted this approach and are currently actively enrolling patients for our 'Image-Based Mapping of Brain Tumors' study. Patients are eligible for this research study (IRB #16-002424) if they are 18 years or older and undergoing surgical intervention for a brain lesion. Once identified, candidate patients receive dynamic susceptibility contrast (DSC) perfusion MRI and diffusion tensor imaging (DTI), in addition to standard sequences (T1, T1Gd, T2, T2-FLAIR) at their presurgical scan. During surgery, sample anatomical locations are tracked using neuronavigation. The collected specimens from this research study are used to capture the intra-tumoral heterogeneity across brain tumors including quantification of genetic aberrations through whole-exome and RNA sequencing as well as other tissue analysis techniques. To date, these data (made available through a public portal) have been used to generate, test, and validate predictive regional maps of the spatial distribution of tumor cell density and/or treatment-related key genetic marker status to identify biopsy and/or treatment targets based on insight from the entire tumor makeup. This type of methodology, when delivered within clinically feasible time frames, has the potential to further inform medical decision-making by improving surgical intervention, radiation, and targeted drug therapy for patients with glioma.

Abstract
Flow diversion with the pipeline embolization device (PED) is increasingly used to treat intracranial aneurysms with high obliteration rates and low morbidity. However, long-term (≥ 1 year) angiographic and clinical outcomes still require further investigation. The aim of this study was to compare the occlusion and complication rates for small (< 10 mm) versus large (10-25 mm) aneurysms at long-term following treatment with PED. A systematic review and meta-analysis were performed in compliance with the Preferred Reporting Items for Systematic Reviews and Meta-Analyses. We conducted a comprehensive search of English language databases including Ovid MEDLINE and Epub Ahead of Print, In-Process, and Daily, Ovid EMBASE, Ovid Cochrane Central Register of Controlled Trials, Ovid Cochrane Database of Systematic Reviews, and Scopus. Our studies included a minimum of 10 patients treated with PED for small vs. large aneurysms and with at least 12 months of follow-up. The primary safety endpoint was the rate of clinical complications measured by the occurrence of symptomatic stroke (confirmed clinically and radiographically), intracranial hemorrhage, or aneurysmal rupture. The primary efficacy endpoint was the complete aneurysm occlusion rate. Our analysis included 19 studies with 1277 patients and 1493 aneurysms. Of those, 1378 aneurysms met our inclusion criteria. The mean age was 53.9 years, and most aneurysms were small (89.75%; N = 1340) in women (79.1%; N = 1010). The long-term occlusion rate was 73% (95%, CI 65 to 80%) in small compared to 84% (95%, CI 76 to 90%) in large aneurysms (p < 0.01). The symptomatic thromboembolic complication rate was 5% (95%, CI 3 to 9%) in small compared to 7% (95%, CI 4 to 13%) in large aneurysms (p = 0.01). The rupture rate was 2% vs. 4% (p = 0.92), and the rate of intracranial hemorrhage was 2% vs. 4% (p = 0.96) for small vs. large aneurysms, respectively; however, these differences were not statistically significant. The long-term occlusion rate after PED treatment is higher in large vs. small aneurysms. Symptomatic thromboembolic rates with stroke are also higher in large vs. small aneurysms. The difference in the rates of aneurysm rupture and intracranial hemorrhage was insignificant. Although the PED seems a safe and effective treatment for small and large aneurysms, further studies are required to clarify how occlusion rate and morbidity are affected by aneurysm size.

Abstract
Extracranial vertebral artery aneurysms are rare complications resulting from trauma and multiple different diseases. However, the difference between clinical and surgical profiles is well understood. To investigate the clinical and interventional outcomes following extracranial vertebral artery aneurysms (VAA) treatment through a systematic review of the literature to date, an electronic database search for full-text English articles was conducted following PRISMA guidelines. The search yielded results on clinical and surgical outcomes for extracranial VAAs. These results included patient-specific risk factors, indications, and techniques. Our literature search resulted in 561 articles, of which 36 studies were qualified to be included in the analysis. A total of 55 patients with multiple various extracranial VAA incidents were included. The mean age of subjects was 42 years (ranging from 13.0 to 76.0 years), and the majority of patients were males (71%, n =39). Blunt trauma was the most frequent risk factor for extracranial VAA formation (35%, n = 19). The majority of aneurysms (60%) were dissected in nature. The most common form of treatment for extracranial VAAs was the use of a flow diverter (24%, n=13). Overall, five (9%) patients had long-term adverse neurological complications following intervention with 5% (n=3) mortality, 2% (n=1) resulting in unilateral vocal cord paralysis, and 2% (n=1) resulted in a positive Romberg sign. The mortality rate is 15.7% in the surgical group, whereas the endovascular treatment did not result in any mortality. The endovascular approach is a safe and effective treatment of extracranial VAAs due to its relatively low overall complication rate and lack of resulting mortality. This is in contrast to the surgical approach which results in a higher rate of complications, recurrence, and mortality outcomes. An understanding of the factors and clinical outcomes associated with the incidence of extracranial VAAs is essential for the future improvement of patient outcomes.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE We analyzed the data of patients enrolled in the Hydrogel Endovascular Aneurysm Treatment (HEAT) trial to develop and validate a model to predict the risk of aneurysmal hemorrhage. METHODS Analysis included data from 600 patients enrolled for the HEAT trial and included single saccular aneurysms of 3-14 mm size. Baseline characteristics were compared between patients with ruptured and unruptured aneurysms. Regression analysis was performed in the training set to identify significant risk factors and was validated in the validation dataset. The complete dataset was used to formulate a scoring model in which positive and negative predictors were assigned 1 and -1 points, respectively. RESULTS Data from 593 patients were analyzed in which 169 (28.5%) patients had ruptured aneurysms. The training (n = 297) and validation dataset (n = 296) had a comparable proportion of ruptured aneurysms (29.3% and 27.7%). Dome-to-neck ratio >2.5 (odds ratio [OR] 3.66), irregular shape (OR 3.79), daughter sac (OR 5.89), and anterior and posterior communicating artery locations (OR 3.32 and 3.56, respectively) had a higher rupture rate. Use of aspirin was associated with lower risk of hemorrhage (OR 0.16). The area under the curve from the receiver operating curve analysis was 0.88, 0.87, and 0.87 in the training, validation, and combined data set, respectively. The scoring model created a score of -1 to 2, yielding an of aneurysmal hemorrhage probability from 1.5% (score -1) to 70% (score 2). CONCLUSIONS This prospective study identifies dome-to-neck ratio >2.5, irregular shape, presence of daughter sac, absence of aspirin use, and aneurysm location at anterior communicating and posterior communicating artery as factors associated with increased risk of hemorrhagic presentation in small- to medium-sized intracranial aneurysms. Our model provides an estimate of rupture risk based on the presence or absence of these factors.

Abstract
Sampling restrictions have hindered the comprehensive study of invasive non-enhancing (NE) high-grade glioma (HGG) cell populations driving tumor progression. Here, we present an integrated multi-omic analysis of spatially matched molecular and multi-parametric magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) profiling across 313 multi-regional tumor biopsies, including 111 from the NE, across 68 HGG patients. Whole exome and RNA sequencing uncover unique genomic alterations to unresectable invasive NE tumor, including subclonal events, which inform genomic models predictive of geographic evolution. Infiltrative NE tumor is alternatively enriched with tumor cells exhibiting neuronal or glycolytic/plurimetabolic cellular states, two principal transcriptomic pathway-based glioma subtypes, which respectively demonstrate abundant private mutations or enrichment in immune cell signatures. These NE phenotypes are non-invasively identified through normalized K2 imaging signatures, which discern cell size heterogeneity on dynamic susceptibility contrast (DSC)-MRI. NE tumor populations predicted to display increased cellular proliferation by mean diffusivity (MD) MRI metrics are uniquely associated with EGFR amplification and CDKN2A homozygous deletion. The biophysical mapping of infiltrative HGG potentially enables the clinical recognition of tumor subpopulations with aggressive molecular signatures driving tumor progression, thereby informing precision medicine targeting.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE A cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) venous fistula (CVF) is an aberrant connection between the subarachnoid space and a vein resulting in CSF loss. The presentation and management of CVF with cognitive decline is incompletely understood. METHODS A systematic review was completed following the PRISMA guidelines. Articles that included at least 1 case of imaging-confirmed CVF with details on patient treatment were included. A separate review of cases of patients with spontaneous intracranial hypotension (SIH) with frontotemporal dementia (FTD) or dementia symptoms was also completed. RESULTS Ten CVF articles (69 patients; average age, 51.5 years) and 5 SIH with FTD or dementia articles (n = 41; average age, 55.9 years) were identified. Only 1 patients with CVF with cognitive abnormalities was identified. The most common symptom was headache in both reviews. Brain sag was identified in all patients, whereas CSF leak was identified in only 2 patients with SIH with FTD or dementia (4.9%). An epidural blood or fibrin glue patch was used in all patients with CVF and in 33 patients with SIH with FTD or dementia. Fifty-five patients with CVF (79.7%) and 27 patients with SIH with FTD or dementia (65.9%) had surgery. CONCLUSIONS The 2 cases and literature reviews show the difficulty in diagnosis and treatment of CVF with cognitive decline. Novel imaging techniques should be used in patients with cognitive decline in whom a CSF leak is suspected. Transvenous embolization or surgery should be considered before patching for treatment of CVF-induced brain sag and resulting dementia.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Glioblastoma is an extraordinarily heterogeneous tumor, yet the current treatment paradigm is a "one size fits all" approach. Hundreds of glioblastoma clinical trials have been deemed failures because they did not extend median survival, but these cohorts are comprised of patients with diverse tumors. Current methods of assessing treatment efficacy fail to fully account for this heterogeneity. METHODS Using an image-based modeling approach, we predicted T-cell abundance from serial MRIs of patients enrolled in the dendritic cell (DC) vaccine clinical trial. T-cell predictions were quantified in both the contrast-enhancing and non-enhancing regions of the imageable tumor, and changes over time were assessed. RESULTS A subset of patients in a DC vaccine clinical trial, who had previously gone undetected, were identified as treatment responsive and benefited from prolonged survival. A mere two months after initial vaccine administration, responsive patients had a decrease in model-predicted T-cells within the contrast-enhancing region, with a simultaneous increase in the T2/FLAIR region. CONCLUSIONS In a field that has yet to see breakthrough therapies, these results highlight the value of machine learning in enhancing clinical trial assessment, improving our ability to prospectively prognosticate patient outcomes, and advancing the pursuit towards individualized medicine.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE Aneurysm occlusion has been used as surrogate marker of aneurysm treatment efficacy. Aneurysm occlusion scales are used to evaluate the outcome of endovascular aneurysm treatment and to monitor recurrence. These scales, however, require subjective interpretation of imaging data, which can reduce the utility and reliability of these scales and the validity of clinical studies regarding aneurysm occlusion rates. Use of a core lab with independent blinded reviewers has been implemented to enhance the validity of occlusion rate assessments in clinical trials. The degree of agreement between core labs and treating physicians has not been well studied with prospectively collected data. METHODS In this study, the authors analyzed data from the Hydrogel Endovascular Aneurysm Treatment (HEAT) trial to assess the interrater agreement between the treating physician and the blinded core lab. The HEAT trial included 600 patients across 46 sites with intracranial aneurysms treated with coiling. The treating site and the core lab independently reviewed immediate postoperative and follow-up imaging (3-12 and 18-24 months, respectively) using the Raymond-Roy occlusion classification (RROC) scale, Meyer scale, and recanalization survey. A post hoc analysis was performed to calculate interrater reliability using Cohen's kappa. Further analysis was performed to assess whether degree of agreement varied on the basis of various factors, including scale used, timing of imaging, size of the aneurysm, imaging modality, location of the aneurysm, dome-to-neck ratio, and rupture status. RESULTS Minimal interrater agreement was noted between the core lab reviewers and the treating physicians for assessing aneurysm occlusion using the RROC grading scale (k = 0.39, 95% CI 0.38-0.40) and Meyer scale (k = 0.23, 95% CI 0.14-0.38). The degree of agreement between groups was slightly better but still weak for assessing recanalization (k = 0.45, 95% CI 0.38-0.52). Factors that significantly improved degree of agreement were scales with fewer variables, greater time to follow-up, imaging modality (digital subtraction angiography), and wide-neck aneurysms. CONCLUSIONS Assessment of aneurysm treatment outcome with commonly used aneurysm occlusion scales suffers from risk of poor interrater agreement. This supports the use of independent core labs for validation of outcome data to minimize reporting bias. Use of outcome tools with fewer point categories is likely to provide better interrater reliability. Therefore, the outcome assessment tools are ideal for clinical outcome assessment provided that they are sensitive enough to detect a clinically significant change.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE Chordomas are rare tumors from notochordal remnants and account for 1%-4% of all primary bone malignancies, often arising from the clivus and sacrum. Despite margin-negative resection and postoperative radiotherapy, chordomas often recur. Further, immunohistochemical (IHC) markers have not been assessed as predictive of chordoma recurrence. The authors aimed to identify the IHC markers that are predictive of postoperative long-term (≥ 1 year) chordoma recurrence by using trained multiple tree-based machine learning (ML) algorithms. METHODS The authors reviewed the records of patients who had undergone treatment for clival and spinal chordomas between January 2017 and June 2021 across the Mayo Clinic enterprise (Minnesota, Florida, and Arizona). Demographics, type of treatment, histopathology, and other relevant clinical factors were abstracted from each patient record. Decision tree and random forest classifiers were trained and tested to predict long-term recurrence based on unseen data using an 80/20 split. RESULTS One hundred fifty-one patients diagnosed and treated for chordomas were identified: 58 chordomas of the clivus, 48 chordomas of the mobile spine, and 45 chordomas sacrococcygeal in origin. Patients diagnosed with cervical chordomas were the oldest among all groups (58 ± 14 years, p = 0.009). Most patients were male (n = 91, 60.3%) and White (n = 139, 92.1%). Most patients underwent resection with or without radiation therapy (n = 129, 85.4%). Subtotal resection followed by radiation therapy (n = 51, 33.8%) was the most common treatment modality, followed by gross-total resection then radiation therapy (n = 43, 28.5%). Multivariate analysis showed that S100 and pan-cytokeratin are more likely to predict the increase in the risk of postoperative recurrence (OR 3.67, 95% CI 1.09-12.42, p= 0.03; and OR 3.74, 95% CI 0.05-2.21, p = 0.02, respectively). In the decision tree analysis, a clinical follow-up > 1897 days was found in 37% of encounters and a 90% chance of being classified for recurrence (accuracy = 77%). Random forest analysis (n = 500 trees) showed that patient age, type of surgical treatment, location of tumor, S100, pan-cytokeratin, and EMA are the factors predicting long-term recurrence. CONCLUSIONS The IHC and clinicopathological variables combined with tree-based ML tools successfully demonstrated a high capacity to identify recurrence patterns with an accuracy of 77%. S100, pan-cytokeratin, and EMA were the IHC drivers of recurrence. This shows the power of ML algorithms in analyzing and predicting outcomes of rare conditions of a small sample size.

Abstract
In recent years, the endoscopic endonasal approach (EEA) for craniopharyngiomas has proven to be a safe option for extensive tumor resection, with minimal or no manipulation of the optic nerves and excellent visualization of the superior hypophyseal branches when compared to the Transcranial Approach (TCA). However, there is an ongoing debate regarding the criteria for selecting different approaches. To explore the current results of EEA and discuss its role in the management of craniopharyngiomas, we performed MEDLINE, Embase, and LILACS searches from 2012 to 2022. Baseline characteristics, the extent of resection, and clinical outcomes were evaluated. Statistical analysis was performed through an X2 and Fisher exact test, and a comparison between quantitative variables through a Kruskal-Wallis and verified with post hoc Bonferroni. The tumor volume was similar in both groups (EEA 11.92 cm3, -TCA 13.23 cm3). The mean follow-up in months was 39.9 for EEA and 43.94 for TCA, p = 0.76). The EEA group presented a higher visual improvement rate (41.96% vs. 25% for TCA, p < 0.0001, OR 7.7). Permanent DI was less frequent with EEA (29.20% vs. 67.40% for TCA, p < 0.0001, OR 0.2). CSF Leaks occurred more frequently with EEA (9.94% vs. 0.70% for TCA, p < 0.0001, OR 15.8). Recurrence rates were lower in the EEA group (EEA 15.50% vs. for TCA 21.20%, p = 0.04, OR 0.7). Our results demonstrate that, in selected cases, EEA for resection of craniopharyngiomas is associated with better results regarding visual preservation and extent of tumor resection. Postoperative CSF leak rates associated with EEA have improved compared to the historical series. The decision-making process should consider each person's characteristics; however, it is noticeable that recent data regarding EEA justify its widespread application as a first-line approach in centers of excellence for skull base surgery.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Loeys-Dietz syndrome (LDS) is an autosomal dominant connective tissue disorder characterized by a classic triad of hypertelorism, bifid uvula and/or cleft palate, and generalized arterial tortuosity. There are limited data on the prevalence and rupture risk of intracranial aneurysms (IAs) in the setting of LDS, with no established guidelines. OBJECTIVE To analyze the prevalence and rupture risk of IA in LDS. METHODS Electronic medical records of patients with a confirmed diagnosis of LDS and available cerebrovascular imaging were reviewed. Patients were divided into 2 groups based on the presence of IA. Unmatched and propensity-matched analyses were used to identify potential risk factors for aneurysm formation. RESULTS Records of 1111 patients were screened yielding a total of 60 patients with a diagnosis of LDS. Eighteen (30%) patients had IA, 4 (22.2%) of whom had multiple aneurysms for a total of 24 IAs. Twenty-three (95.8%) aneurysms were located in the anterior circulation; none of them were ruptured. On unmatched analysis, age ( P = .015), smoking history ( P = .034), hypertension ( P = .035), and number of extracranial aneurysms ( P < .001) were significantly higher in patients with IA. After matching for age, sex, race, stroke history, family history, and extracranial aneurysms, smoking history ( P = .009) remained significant. CONCLUSION Patients with LDS have an increased risk of IAs, especially with a history of smoking. The prevalence rate of IAs in our series was 30%. Screening imaging should be considered at diagnosis, and patients should be encouraged to abstain from smoking. Further studies are needed to elucidate the risk of IA rupture and treatment considerations in this unique population.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE Patient satisfaction has increasingly played a role in determining care quality. Surveys are used to gauge patient experience, satisfaction of care, and likelihood to recommend providers and facilities. The aim of the study is to evaluate whether clinical and demographic data predict greater patient satisfaction with providers in the outpatient neurosurgery clinic. METHODS Press-Ganey (Press Ganey Associates, South Bend, IL) evaluations of 1521 patients were reviewed in an academic neurosurgical clinic from January 1, 2019 through February 1, 2021. We analyzed associations between Press-Ganey ratings and patient demographics, chief complaint, psychiatric comorbidities, number of orders placed, medication prescriptions, surgical recommendation, payor status, and referral source. We used univariate logistic regression to assess for associations between independent variables and Press-Ganey ratings. Multivariable logistic regression was used for associated factors. RESULTS For the Likelihood to Recommend question, older age (p = 0.003), cranial chief complaint (p = 0.046), and recommendations for surgery (p < 0.001) were significantly associated with "good" ratings. For the rating of Care Received, older age (p = 0.002), cranial chief complaint (p = 0.05), and recommendations for surgery (p = 0.002) were significantly associated with "good" ratings. For Confidence in Care Provider question, recommendations for surgery (p = <0.001) and government insurance type (p = 0.002) were significantly associated with "good" ratings. CONCLUSIONS Patients with older age, cranial pathologies, a recommendation for surgery, and government health insurance were significantly associated with favorable patient satisfaction with providers in the outpatient neurosurgery clinic. Prospective studies should target patient populations who are younger, have spinal complaints, have non-surgical needs, and have commercial insurance to improve satisfaction.

Abstract
Cholesterol granulomas (CGs) are the most common cyst of the petrous apex.1 The management options for CG include observation and surgical resection. Surgery is complicated by the proximity of these lesions to critical neurological and vascular structures, as with many skull base lesions; however, if left untreated, their growth may lead to mass effect resulting in conductive hearing loss, cranial nerve dysfunction, tinnitus, and/or chronic headaches.2,3 In this video, we present the case of 52-year-old woman who presented with medically refractory right retro-orbital headaches. MRI revealed a large, right-sided petrous apex cystic structure consistent with a CG. Computed tomography of the head demonstrated bony remodeling. Given the large size of the cyst and the patient's symptoms, surgery was proposed, and the patient agreed. We performed a middle fossa craniotomy and elevated the dura from the floor of the middle fossa, working posteriorly from the petrous ridge and extending anteriorly. The cyst was exposed and decompressed, and its wall was then dissected off. After all cystic components were removed, the cavity was packed with abdominal fat, which is believed to prevent cyst reaccumulation. Postoperative MRI demonstrated good resection, and the patient reported complete resolution of her headaches. The patient consented to the procedure as shown in this operative video and gave informed written consent for use of her images in publication.

Abstract
OBJECTIVES To provide a better understanding of methods that can be used to improve patient outcomes by reducing the door-to-groin puncture (DTP) time and present the results of a stroke quality improvement project (QIP) conducted by Mayo Clinic Arizona's stroke center. METHODS We conducted a systematic literature search of Ovid MEDLINE(R), Ovid EMBASE, Scopus, and Web of Science for studies that evaluated DTP time reduction strategies. Those determined eligible for the purpose of this analysis were assessed for quality. The strategies for DTP time reduction were categorized on the basis of modified Target: Stroke Phase III recommendations and analyzed using a meta-analysis. The Mayo Clinic QIP implemented a single-call activation system to reduce DTP times by decreasing the time from neurosurgery notification to case start. RESULTS Fourteen studies were selected for the analysis, consisting of 2277 patients with acute ischemic stroke secondary to large-vessel occlusions. After intervention, all the studies showed a reduction in the DTP time, with the pooled DTP improvement being the standardized mean difference (1.37; 95% confidence interval, 1.20-1.93; τ2=1.09; P<.001). The Mayo Clinic QIP similarly displayed a DTP time reduction, with the DTP time dropping from 125.1 to 82.5 minutes after strategy implementation. CONCLUSION Computed tomography flow modifications produced the largest and most consistent reduction in the DTP time. However, the reduction in the DTP time across all the studies suggests that any systematic protocol aimed at reducing the DTP time can produce a beneficial effect. The relative novelty of mechanical thrombectomy and the consequential lack of research call for future investigation into the efficacy of varying DTP time reduction strategies.

Abstract
Neurosurgical education is a continually developing field with an aim of training competent and compassionate surgeons who can care for the needs of their patients. The Mayo Clinic utilizes a unique mentorship model for neurosurgical training. In this paper, the authors detail the historical roots as well as the logistical and experiential characteristics of this teaching model.
This model was first established in the late 1890s by the Mayo brothers and then adopted by the Mayo Clinic Department of Neurological Surgery at its inception in 1919. It has since been implemented enterprise-wide at the Minnesota, Florida, and Arizona residency programs. The mentorship model is focused on honing resident skills through individualized attention and guidance from an attending physician. Each resident is closely mentored by a consultant during a 2- or 3-month rotation, which allows for exposure to more complex cases early in their training.
In this model, residents take ownership of their patients’ care, following them longitudinally during their hospital course with guided oversight from their mentors. During the chief year, residents have their own clinic, operating room (OR) schedule, and OR team and service nurse. In this model, chief residents conduct themselves more in the manner of an attending physician than a trainee but continue to have oversight from staff to provide a “safety net.” The longitudinal care of patients provided by the residents under the mentorship model is not only beneficial for the trainee and the hospital, but also has a positive impact on patient satisfaction and safety. The Mayo Clinic Mentorship Model is one of many educational models that has demonstrated itself to be an excellent approach for resident education.
