Bacterial meningitis and infectious cavernous sinus thrombosis (CST) are both life-threatening central nervous system infections, often caused by sinusitis. While cerebrovascular complications are well-recognized in bacterial meningitis, their association with CST is rare. A 69-year-old man presented with a 19-day history of headache, followed by diplopia.

Purpose: To explored key angiographic markers associated with headache risk in patients with unruptured brain arteriovenous malformations (BAVMs).

Methods: This retrospective study included patients with unruptured, supratentorial BAVMs without prior interventions who underwent digital subtraction angiography between January 2011 and January 2024. The patients were stratified into headache and nonheadache groups on the basis of symptoms at initial presentation.

Introduction: The infratemporal fossa (ITF) represents a complex anatomical region of critical relevance in skull base surgery, particularly due to its involvement in the extension of neoplastic lesions. Surgical access to this region remains technically demanding. The orbitozygomatic (OZ) and transmandibular (TM) approaches offer distinct anatomical perspectives and operative corridors.

Hemifacial spasm (HFS) is a neurological disorder characterized by involuntary, paroxysmal contractions of the muscles innervated by the facial nerve on one side of the face. While primary HFS is most often caused by vascular compression at the root exit zone (REZ) of the facial nerve, secondary causes such as tumors, arteriovenous malformations, and intracranial aneurysms are rare. The management of HFS due to aneurysmal compression remains challenging, and the literature on endovascular treatment, particularly with flow diverter stents, is limited.
