Metric Options: CountsSelecting the 1-year or 3-year option will change the metrics count to percentiles, illustrating how an article or review compares to other articles or reviews within the selected time period in the same journal. Selecting the 1-year option compares the metrics against other articles/reviews that were also published in the same calendar year. Selecting the 3-year option compares the metrics against other articles/reviews that were also published in the same calendar year plus the two years prior.
Example: if you select the 1-year option for an article published in 2019 and a metric category shows 90%, that means that the article or review is performing better than 90% of the other articles/reviews published in that journal in 2019. If you select the 3-year option for the same article published in 2019 and the metric category shows 90%, that means that the article or review is performing better than 90% of the other articles/reviews published in that journal in 2019, 2018 and 2017.

Article Description
Background: Pseudomeningoceles (PMs) are infrequent complications of spine surgery resulting from incidental durotomy and subsequent extravasation of cerebrospinal fluid. Giant PMs (GPMs), defined as ≥8 cm in major diameter, are rarely reported in the literature and present a challenge due to a lack of clear guidelines for surgical management. Case Description: Here, the authors discuss the successful surgical management of a 25.3 cm lumbar GPM that became calcified 3 years following an initial T10-S2 laminectomy with instrumented fusion performed at an outside-hospital. Conclusion: This report focuses on the successful 3-year delayed surgical intervention for the management of an ossified GPM.
