The endoscope-assisted minimally invasive retro-sigmoid approach (EAMIRSA) is a surgical technique that can be used for the treatment of the cerebellopontine angle (CPA) and internal auditory canal (IAC) disease. Here, we describe the material necessary to perform EAMIRSA and illustrate the technique using a step-by-step cadaver dissection.

It is estimated that 1 in 6 individuals worldwide will have a stroke in their lifetime, causing long-term disability, whose rehabilitation mechanisms are still poorly understood. This study proposes a protocol to evaluate brain activation by functional near-infrared spectroscopy (fNIRS) during a lower limb robotic therapy session.
