We published a five multicenter cohort study looking at Time to surgery and postoperative functional outcomes of 1015 cSDH patients @JNNP_BMJ .

👉increasing delay from referral to surgery was independently associated with worse functional outcomes
Full house in the Teasdale Suite today for See Yung Phang's talk on lessons learned from his international fellowships - inspiring stuff! 🙌 – at Renfrew, Scotland
Huge thanks to @MarcusStoodley and @WBrinjikji for excellent talks on spontaneous intracranial hypotension + CSF venous fistulas. Thanks also to @KevnAgyemang for organising and encouraging learning from diverse strategies, the kind of cross-specialty education that advances care

Giant brainstem cavernomas like this are often labelled "impossible to treat."
Six months ago, this patient arrived bed-bound. Today, she's home for the holidays—a feat made possible by dedication, advanced training, and exceptional teamwork at the INS in Glasgow, led by Kevin Agyemang.
I was privileged to learn and work alongside such a team this year.
Massive well done to Jo Igoli and Mo Ashraf, who were both successful at #NationalSelection this year! Congratulations, folks 😊 🎊 #Neurosurgery #NTN – at Glasgow, Scotland

Delighted to see our collaborative work on unilateral foot drop 2ry to lumbar disc herniation now published in @TheJNS!
We found that for every day of delay, there was a 0.2% reduction in the likelihood of improvement emphasising the importance of early surgical consideration. – at Glasgow, Scotland
Collaborative publication effort: 7 UK sites
We have published on "Surgical outcomes of unilateral painful foot drop secondary to lumbar disc herniation: a multicenter retrospective study" @TheJNS Spine.
👉early surgical intervention improved outcomes
