<b><i>Introduction:</i></b> Posthemorrhagic hydrocephalus in preterm infants is a serious entity related to high mortality and morbidity. Neuroendoscopic lavage (NEL) is a suitable alternative for the management of this pathology. However, as with every endoscopic technique, it requires some experience and several cases to master. <b><i>Methods:</i></b> We present a descriptive study of some technical nuances, tips, and tricks that have been learned in the last 8 years with over a hundred NELs performed in preterm infants. These variations are classified into 3 categories according to their temporal relationship with the surgical procedure: preoperative stage, intraoperative stage, and postoperative stage. We include a brief description of each one and the reasons why they are included in our current clinical practice. <b><i>Results:</i></b> Twenty tips and pearls were described in detail and are reported here. Preoperative, intraoperative, and postoperative variations were exposed and related to the most frequent complications of this procedure: infection, cerebrospinal fluid leak, and rebleeding. <b><i>Conclusions:</i></b> NEL is a useful technique for the management of germinal matrix hemorrhage in preterm infants. These technical nuances have improved the results of our technique and helped us to prevent complications related to the procedure.

Abstract Background The COVID-19 pandemic creates new challenges for healthcare, including invasive cardiology. Case summary We discuss the case of a 65-year-old man who presented with non-ST segment elevation myocardial infarction combined with bilateral pneumonia. The patient had known severe iliac artery lesions with prior interventions and bilateral subclavian artery occlusions. After unsuccessful femoral artery access, the diagnostic angiography and the right coronary artery percutaneous coronary intervention were successfully performed from ultrasound-guided lower superficial temporal artery access. Discussion We showed that superficial temporal access can be used as an alternate access site for diagnostic coronary angiography and intervention when standard wrist and femoral access sites are not readily accessible.
