This article aims to report results of our facial nerve preservation approach to treating vestibular schwannomas (VS) at a single institution by a single surgeon performing both microsurgery (MS) and stereotactic radiosurgery (SRS). ⋯ For patients with VS not undergoing primary SRS, MS with an emphasis on facial-nerve preservation over gross total resection followed by surveillance imaging and adjuvant SRS is an effective treatment paradigm that yields excellent facial nerve outcomes, low morbidity, and acceptable tumor control.

This study was to explore the factors associated with prolonged hospital length of stay (LOS) in patients with intracranial aneurysms (IAs) undergoing endovascular interventional embolization and construct prediction model machine learning algorithms. ⋯ This study comprehensively identified key predictive factors for prolonged LOS in patients with IA undergoing interventional embolization and confirmed the efficacy of an RF model for predicting prolonged LOS in patients with IA undergoing interventional embolization. The construction of LOS prediction model may effectively optimize healthcare resource utilization, inform better clinical decision-making, and offer valuable prognostic insights.
