The field of endovascular neurosurgery has experienced remarkable progress over the last few decades. Endovascular treatments have continued to gain traction as the advancement of technology, technique, and procedural safety has allowed for the expansion of treatment indications of various cerebrovascular pathologies. Interventions such as the coiling of intracranial aneurysms, carotid artery stenting, mechanical thrombectomy in the setting of ischemic stroke, and endovascular embolization of arteriovenous malformations have all seen transformations in their safety and efficacy, expanding the scope of endovascularly treatable conditions and offering new hope to patients who may have otherwise not been candidates for surgical intervention. Despite this notable progress, challenges persist, including complications associated with device deployment and questions regarding long-term outcomes. This article explores the advancements in endovascular neurosurgical techniques, highlighting the impact on patient care, outcomes, and the evolution of traditional surgical methods.

Functional neurosurgery encompasses surgical procedures geared towards treating movement disorders (such as Parkinson's disease and essential tremor), drug-resistant epilepsy, and various types of pain disorders. It is one of the most rapidly expanding fields within neurosurgery and utilizes both traditional open surgical methods such as open temporal lobectomy for epilepsy as well as neuromodulation-based treatments such as implanting brain or nerve stimulation devices. This review outlines the role functional neurosurgery plays in treatment of epilepsy, movement disorders, and pain, and how it is being implemented at the University of Missouri by the Department of Neurosurgery.

The use of telemedicine has rapidly expanded in the wake of the COVID pandemic, but its effect on patient attendance remains unknown for different clinicians. This study compared traditional in-clinic visits with telehealth visits by retrospectively reviewing all scheduled orthopaedic clinic visits. Results demonstrated lower rates of cancellations in patients scheduled for telehealth visits as compared to in-clinic visits, during the initial COVID pandemic. In general, physicians can expect a lower cancellation rate than non-physician practitioners.

Optic atrophy 1(OPA1) is a GTPase protein that controls mitochondrial fusion, cristae integrity, and mtDNA maintenance. In neurodegenerative diseases such as Alzheimer's disease (AD), amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS), Parkinson's disease (PD), the mitochondrial network morphology is compromised. Studies on TAR-DNA binding protein 43 (TDP-43) has been the focus in our lab. OPA1 and TDP-43 interaction may shed a light on how aberrant TDP-43 interacts with OPA1, which will lead to mitochondrial dysfunction. The preliminary study tested the idea of whether OPA1 and TDP-43 are physically interacting in human platelet derived mitochondria obtained from healthy human subjects.
