Therapeutic Modulation of Meningeal Lymphatics: A Systematic Review of Preclinical Evidence Across Neurological Disorders Open
Meningeal lymphatic vessels (MLVs) have emerged as critical modulators of cerebral homeostasis, immune surveillance, and metabolic clearance. Their dysfunction is increasingly implicated in the pathogenesis of neurodegenerative and neuroin…

Brain Drain for Brain Gain: Potential Applications of Robotic-assisted Lymphatic Microsurgery in the Management of Neurological Disorders Open
Background: The central nervous system (CNS) was long believed to be devoid of lymphatic drainage. However, the discovery of the glymphatic system and meningeal lymphatics has revolutionized our understanding of cerebrospinal fluid homeost…

Robotic-assisted lymphovenous anastomosis to treat periorbital lymphedema and systematic review of lymphatic reconstruction of face and neck lymphedema Open
Head and neck lymphedema has gained increasing interest due to improved head and neck cancer survival. However, there exist no guidelines on its management so far. The study reports on the first robotic-assisted lymphovenous anastomosis (L…
