Department of Neurosurgery Posters
The thalamus has played a crucial role in determining surgical outcome following anterior temporal lobectomy (ATL) in temporal lobe epilepsy (TLE) (He, et al., 2017). Before successfully quantifying the impact of the thalamus on ATL outcomes, this structure’s own intrinsic connectivity must be understood. Accordingly, we characterize thalamic intrinsic connectivity through resting-state fMRI (rsfMRI) longitudinally, exploring its change pre- to post-surgery.

Outpatient Vestibular Rehabilitation For A Patient Three Months Post Acoustic Neuroma Resection: A Case Report, Joel Harrison
Case Report Posters
An acoustic neuroma is a benign and slow growing intracranial tumor that originates from cells of the vestibular nerve within the inner ear. Acoustic neuromas are estimated to occur in 10-20 individuals per 1,000,000 in the US. The tumor and subsequent surgery frequently lead to vestibular impairment. The vestibular system functions to coordinate head and eye movement through the vestibulo-ocular reflex (VOR), maintain postural stability, and provide input for spatial orientation. Common signs and symptoms of vestibular dysfunction include dizziness, headaches, oscillopsia, and disequilibrium. The purpose of this case report is to describe the outpatient PT management of a patient …

Vestibular Rehabilitation For A Geriatric Patient With Benign Paroxysmal Positional Vertigo Treatment Failure: A Case Report, Clare Roeder
Case Report Posters
Good balance requires integration of sensory information from three systems: vestibular, visual and somatosensory. The vestibular portion of the inner ear contains two types of sensory structures that respond to gravity and head movements: semicircular canals and otolith organs. Crystals of calcium carbonate (otoconia) reside in the otolith organs, but can become dislodged and migrate to the semicircular canals, causing symptoms of vertigo. Benign Paroxysmal Positional Vertigo (BPPV), caused by misplaced otoconia in the semicircular canals, is the most common vestibular disorder. Symptoms include dizziness, nausea, nystagmus, brief episodic vertigo during rapid head movements and specific head positions. BPPV is …
