Neurocognition After Radiotherapy in CNS- and Skull-base Tumors
The goal of this multicenter prospective longitudinal study is to study the long-term impact of multimodal treatment (chemotherapy, radiotherapy and surgery) in adult brain and base of skull tumors on neurocognitive functioning. All included patients will complete a self-report inventory (subjective cognitive functioning, QoL, confounders), a cognitive test battery, an …
Effects of the SGLT2 Inhibitor Empagliflozin in Patients With Euvolemic and Hypervolemic Hyponatremia
Hyponatremia is the most common electrolyte derangement occurring in hospitalized patients. It is usually classified as hypovolemic, euvolemic or hypervolemic. The most common aetiology of euvolemic hyponatremia is the syndrome of inappropriate antidiuresis (SIAD). Hypervolemic hyponatremia is common in patients with congestive heart failure (CHF) (10-27%) and liver cirrhosis (up …
68-Ga DOTATATE PET/MRI in the Diagnosis and Management of Somatostatin Receptor Positive CNS Tumors.
The study population consists of patients who undergo resection for somatostatin receptor-positive (SSTR-positive) CNS tumors, focusing on meningioma, and including esthesioneuroblastoma, hemangioblastoma, medulloblastoma, paraganglioma, pituitary adenoma, and SSTR-positive systemic cancers metastatic to the brain, such as small cell carcinoma of the lung. The study indication is to determine the diagnostic …
Nasal Packing Following Endoscopic Endonasal Pituitary Resection
There is considerable controversy about the use of nasal packing following endoscopic endonasal resection of pituitary tumors as a necessary treatment amongst Rhinology-Skull Base Surgeons. The justification for the routine use of nasal packing following pituitary surgery is not clear as this practice is not used for equally extensive sinus …
Nasal Outcomes Using Saline Irrigations After Endonasal Pituitary Surgery
This is a prospective, single-blinded, multicenter study evaluating the benefit of sinonasal irrigations following endoscopic pituitary surgery. The goal of this study is to create practice changing guidelines with objective data highlighting the importance of irrigations on postoperative outcomes for pituitary surgery.
Evaluation of the CONVIVO System
The primary objective of this study is to evaluate the diagnostic performance of the CONVIVO confocal endomicroscope in discriminating between normal and abnormal tissue in vivo during brain tumor surgery. The interpretation of intraoperative images obtained in situ will be tested against conventional histologic evaluation of targeted biopsies from imaged …
Comparison of Posterior Continuous Curvilinear Capsulorhexis With or Without Anterior Vitrectomy
Selecting the appropriate surgical approach for congenital cataracts presents challenging for ophthalmologists. This prospective, randomized controlled study aims to compare the prognosis of posterior continuous curvilinear capsulorhexis (PCCC) with or without anterior vitrectomy (A-Vit) in treating congenital cataracts.
Surgical Approach in Hemiarthroplasty. A Randomized Clinical Trial Comparing Posterior and Anterior Approach
Dislocated femoral neck fractures are routinely treated with cemented hemiartroplasty and the direct lateral approach (Hardinge) has commonly been used in Norway. The investigators have lately witnessed a significant change in the prefered surgical approaches in total hip arthroplasty (THA) in favor of the posterior and anterior approaches. The direct …
The Use of Two YUTIQ Versus Sham for Treatment of Chronic Non Infectious Intraocular Inflammation Affecting the Posterior Segment
The Use of Two YUTIQ versus Sham for Treatment of Chronic Non Infectious Intraocular Inflammation Affecting the Posterior Segment (TYNI Trial)
Comparison of Posterior and Anterior Approach to Sacrospinous Ligament Apical Fixation - Randomized Controlled Trial
Pelvic organ prolapse (POP) is a common problem among women. Apical prolapse (AP) is a prolapse of the uterus, or vaginal cuff, in women post hysterectomy. Apical fixation to the sacrospinous ligament (SSLF) was first introduced in 1968 by K.RICHTER. .In a large review study, the subjective cure rate after …
