A new acoustic coupling fluid with ability to reduce ultrasound imaging artefacts in brain tumour surgery - a phase I study
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2019)Background Anovel acoustic coupling fluid (ACF), with the potential to reduce surgically induced image artefacts during intraoperative ultrasound imaging in brain tumour surgery, has been evaluated with respect to image ... -
Accuracy and Complication Rates of External Ventricular Drain Placement With Twist Drill and Bolt System Versus Standard Trephine and Tunnelation: A Retrospective Population-Based Study
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2020)Background: An external ventricular drain (EVD) is typically indicated in the presence of hydrocephalus and increased intracranial pressure (ICP). Procedural challenges have prompted the development of different methods ... -
Brain infarctions after glioma surgery: prevalence, radiological characteristics and risk factors
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2021)Background: Prevalence, radiological characteristics, and risk factors for peritumoral infarctions after glioma surgery are not much studied. In this study, we assessed shape, volume, and prevalence of peritumoral infarctions ... -
Comparative effectiveness of intracranial hypertension management guided by ventricular versus intraparenchymal pressure monitoring: a CENTER-TBI study
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2022)Objective To compare outcomes between patients with primary external ventricular device (EVD)–driven treatment of intracranial hypertension and those with primary intraparenchymal monitor (IP)–driven treatment. Methods The ... -
Depression and ability to work after vestibular schwannoma surgery: a nationwide registry-based matched cohort study on antidepressants, sedatives, and sick leave
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2021)Background In patients with vestibular schwannomas (VS), tumor control is often achieved, and life expectancy is relatively good. The main risks of surgical treatment are hearing loss and facial nerve function. The occurrence ... -
The histological representativeness of glioblastoma tissue samples
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2020)Background Glioblastomas (GBMs) are known for having a vastly heterogenous histopathology. Several studies have shown that GBMs can be histologically undergraded due to sampling errors of small tissue samples. We sought ... -
Incidence and Case Fatality of Aneurysmal Subarachnoid Hemorrhage Admitted to Hospital Between 2008 and 2014 in Norway
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2020)Background To provide age- and sex-specific incidence and case fatality rates for non-traumatic aneurysmal subarachnoid hemorrhage (aSAH) in Norway. We also studied time trends in incidence and case fatality, as well as ... -
Patient-reported cognitive function before and after glioma surgery
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2022)Background Little is known about the extent to which glioma patients experience subjective changes in cognitive function following surgery. We sought to assess patient-reported cognitive function before and after glioma ... -
Pretreatment patient-reported cognitive function in patients with diffuse glioma

Return to work after surgery for degenerative cervical myelopathy: a nationwide registry-based observational study
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2023)Background Few studies of high quality exist on return to work (RTW) rate after surgery for degenerative cervical myelopathy (DCM). This study aims to examine the RTW rate in patients undergoing surgery for DCM. Method ... -
Return to work after surgery for degenerative cervical myelopathy: a nationwide registry-based observational study
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2023)Background Few studies of high quality exist on return to work (RTW) rate after surgery for degenerative cervical myelopathy (DCM). This study aims to examine the RTW rate in patients undergoing surgery for DCM. Meth ... -
Smoking habits and detection rate of unruptured intracranial aneurysms and incidence rate of subarachnoid haemorrhage in Norway between 2008 and 2015
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2020)Objective The aim of this study was to investigate the detection rate of unruptured intracranial aneurysms (UIAs) and incidence of aneurysmal subarachnoid haemorrhage (SAH) in relation to the rapidly changing smoking rates ... -
Surgery for brain metastases—impact of the extent of resection
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2022)Background Surgical resection of brain metastases improves symptoms and survival in selected patients. The benefit of gross total resection is disputed, as most patients are believed to succumb from their non-CNS tumor ... -
Surgery for degenerative cervical myelopathy in the elderly: a nationwide registry-based observational study with patient-reported outcomes
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2022)Background The aim of this study was to investigate whether clinical outcomes in patients aged ≥ 70 undergoing decompressive surgery for degenerative cervical myelopathy (DCM) differ from those of younger patients (50–70 ... -
Surgery for Extraforaminal Lumbar Disc Herniation: A Single Center Comparative Observational Study
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2020)Background Surgery on extraforaminal lumbar disc herniation (ELDH) is a commonly performed procedure. Operating on this type of herniation is known to come with more difficulties than on the frequently seen paramedian ... -
Surgery for herniated lumbar disc in private vs public hospitals: A pragmatic comparative effectiveness study
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2020)Background There is limited evidence on the comparative performance of private and public healthcare. Our aim was to compare outcomes following surgery for lumbar disc herniation (LDH) in private versus public hospitals. ... -
Survival of glioblastoma in relation to tumor location: a statistical tumor atlas of a population-based cohort
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2021)Purpose Previous studies on the effect of tumor location on overall survival in glioblastoma have found conflicting results. Based on statistical maps, we sought to explore the effect of tumor location on overall survival ...
