Case of a cervical osteophyte causing a dural tear and spontaneous intracranial hypotension complicated by bilateral subdural hematomas, with a review of the literature.

Finite-element study evaluating the biomechanical effect of the FFX® interfacet cage combined with pedicle-screw fixation, with the aim of reducing mechanical stress on the screws and the risk of loosening.

Study of the prevalence of facet syndrome in patients with lumbar stenosis treated by decompression and FFX® facet-cage implantation, and its relationship with medial branch blocks.

In-vitro biomechanical evaluation of the stand-alone DIVA® intervertebral device used in addition to lumbar discectomy, compared with discectomy alone.

This study evaluates the long-term safety and efficacy of FFX® facet cages — a patented invention by Dr. Srour — compared with pedicle-screw fixation in patients with lumbar stenosis. It is a hybrid retrospective/prospective study examining fusion rates, functional outcomes and device safety.

Case of a ganglioneuroma of the sacral spine, a rare benign tumor, with a review of the literature on its diagnosis and management.

Case of a subdural spinal epidermoid cyst occurring as an unusual late complication of peridural anesthesia, with a review of the literature.

French multicenter retrospective study on the management of intracranial solitary fibrous tumours, rare tumors with a high potential for recurrence.

Finite-element modeling comparison of the biomechanical effect of the FFX® device with other lumbar-fusion devices in patients with lumbar spinal stenosis.

Retrospective study comparing operating time and blood loss between pedicle-screw fixation and the implantable FFX® facet-fusion device during lumbar fusion surgery.

Matched cohort study evaluating the stand-alone DIVA® intervertebral device — designed by Dr. Srour — for preventing recurrent disc herniation after lumbar discectomy, compared with discectomy alone.

One-year results from a prospective multicenter study of facet arthrodesis using the FFX® device in patients with facet syndrome or lumbar stenosis.

Evaluation of the efficacy and tolerance of intensity-modulated radiation therapy in the treatment of skull base meningiomas.

First description of the surgical technique developed by Dr. Srour for symptomatic sacral Tarlov cysts (sacral laminectomy, fine-needle puncture of the cyst, placement of a dural sleeve). Series of 20 operated patients: 80% improvement, with no postoperative neurological deterioration.

Study of the correlation between clinical and radiological efficacy using quantitative volumetric follow-up after irradiation of skull-base meningiomas in 35 patients.

Case of a femoral-nerve schwannoma initially misdiagnosed as an inguinal hernia, with a review of the literature on this rare differential diagnosis.

Rare case of isolated intracranial Rosai-Dorfman disease mimicking an optic nerve meningioma, with a review of the literature.

Presentation of two cases of meningeal melanocytoma, rare pigmented tumors of the central nervous system, illustrating their highly variable course, including malignant transformation.

Presentation of two cases of conus medullaris and cauda equina tumors associated with chronic hydrocephalus, presenting with the triad of dementia, gait disturbance and urinary incontinence.

Literature review on radiotherapy of skull base meningiomas: clinical efficacy and tolerance, radiological efficacy and tumor kinetics after irradiation.

Analysis of relapse patterns in patients with high-grade glioma treated with combined treatments including stereotactic re-irradiation at first relapse.

Clinical experience from the first 100 lumbar disc-replacement cases performed in Colmar. Lumbar arthroplasty is considered a treatment of choice for refractory disc degeneration in younger patients, restoring disc height while preserving mobility.

Presentation of the Baguera cervical disc prosthesis, a device designed to preserve cervical-spine mobility while treating degenerative disc disease and avoiding the drawbacks of fusion.

Case of tumoral calcium pyrophosphate dihydrate deposition disease of the cervical spine, occurring 28 years after a suboccipital craniotomy.

Description of a synovial cyst of the common peroneal nerve, highlighting MRI as a reliable non-invasive examination for visualizing the lesion.

Evaluation of the reliability of MR angiography in follow-up of intracranial arteriovenous malformations treated endovascularly.

Comparison of limited hernia excision with complete discectomy for lumbar disc herniation, showing a recurrence rate twice as high after limited excision.

Study of 190 patients treated with percutaneous cervical nucleolysis for cervical disc herniation, covering its indications, technique and outcomes.
