Initial experience with surgical humidification to prevent tissue dehydration during pterional craniotomy for aneurysm clipping: illustrative case
While further investigation is needed to confirm the clinical impact of surgical humidification in neurosurgery, this therapy was safe and effective in this patient. Surgical humidification maintained intracranial tissue hydration and minimized the need for irrigation. https://thejns.org/doi/10.3171/CASE24685.
