今春、富山大学脳神経外科に入局した研修医・瀬川莉恵子先生が執筆した初めての論文が、先月、和文雑誌「脳神経外科」に掲載されました。 脳血管内治療にて治療した後大脳動脈紡錘状動脈瘤の症例報告です。まだまだほんの第一歩ではありますが、誰にとっても人生初めての論文が出版されるということは実に嬉しいもので、次のアカデミック・ワークへの重要なステップになると信じています。実際、現在、彼女は頚動脈狭窄症に関する英文論文の執筆を開始しています。将来が楽しみですな。Girls, be ambitious!
当科では、卒業時から脳神経外科医を目指す研修医を対象に、卒後2年間の初期臨床研修の期間中から中部地区や全国での学会で精力的に発表して、一つ一つをきちんと論文として世に問う姿勢を身につけるよう指導しています。
The Long & Winding Road To Be A Neurosurgeon Vol. 29
Dr. Rieko Segawa, a resident at our department, has published her first case report, entitled “Successful Stent-Assisted Coil Embolization of Fusiform Aneurysm in P2 Segment of Posterior Cerebral Artery: A Case Report” in a Japanese neurosurgical journal, No Shinkei Geka last month. We will support her continuous efforts and growth as a neurosurgeon. Girls, be ambitious!

Abstract
We report a case of a fusiform aneurysm in the P2 segment of the posterior cerebral artery treated with stent-assisted coil embolization. A 44-year-old woman presented with an unruptured fusiform aneurysm in the left posterior cerebral artery. Stent-assisted coil embolization was performed using a “down-the-barrel” view to preserve the parent artery. The postoperative course was uneventful, and MRI showed no evidence of cerebral infarct. The patient was discharged 12 days after surgery, with no neurological deficit. Complete occlusion of the aneurysm and patency of the parent artery were observed on MR angiography at a 3-months follow up. Stent-assisted coil embolization can therefore be an effective alternative to parent artery occlusion in P2 segment fusiform aneurysms of the posterior cerebral artery.
