ASNER symposium at 2012 SNR Meeting

Categorie: Congrese
Data publicarii: May 15th, 2012

As has been customary during the last few years, through the kindness and friendship of the leaders of the Neurology Society, ASNER will participate in the Neurology Congress with a symposium.

We hope to attract your attention and participation through the content and quality of the works that we have prepared for you. The highlight of our meeting is Professor Florin Amzica from the University of Montreal, whose conference we’re sure will get your attention.  He will speak about Kir 4.1 proteins involvement in multiple sclerosis and epilepsy.
Recently, the stereotactic surgery to place intracranial electrodes was performed for the first time in Romania, with the purpose of pre-surgical evaluation of epilepsy as part of a research project supported by Bucharest University, Faculty of Physics, Electricity and Biophysics Department. Ioana Mandruta, Jean Ciurea and Andrei Barborica will present to us the principles and reference points essential to this procedure, as well as the case experience.
It is important to know how neurophysiological practice is being performed in reference centers. This is why we welcome the presentation of Ana Cobzaru and Mihai Moldovan, who describe the concrete way of approaching the cases, performing the EMG exam and reporting the results in the neurophysiology clinic run by Prof. Christian Krarup in Copenhagen.
Since we always try to adjust our topics to the general theme of the congress, Bogdan Florea will present some of his own EEG recordings in patients with encephalopathy, and Tudor Lupescu and Adina Atanasiu will outline what we should demand and what results we should expect in the EMG exam in patients with toxic, metabolic and nutritional diseases.

Premieră românească: Implant de electrozi în structuri profunde ale creierului unui bolnav de epilepsie

Categorie: Press
Data publicarii: March 13th, 2012

“Implantarea electrozilor în structuri profunde ale creierului este o metodă în primul rând de diagnostic a focarului epileptic. Ea este dedicată pacientului cu epilepsie focală, [...] a fost realizată în premieră în România săptămâna trecută (n. r. – 29 februarie 2012) [...]. Electrozii se implantează chirurgical, prin incizii foarte mici, de 2 mm, după care pacientul stă cu ei şi este monitorizat una-două săptămâni [...]. Găurile sunt foarte mici şi nu curge lichid cefalorahidian, nu curge sânge, nu există riscul de infecţie, fiindcă nu există comunicare cu exteriorul [...] Un electrod, ca o andrea sau ca un ac foarte subţire şi lung, costă între 500 şi 1.000 de euro. Când pacientul pleacă în străinătate, costurile sunt foarte mari, între 60.000 şi 100.000 de euro. În România s-ar putea face fără probleme cu cel mult 10.000 de euro [...]”
