The authors confirm their responsibility and ask for the Epub ahead of print publication of their paper in the Journal of Neurosurgical Sciences to be withdrawn. The authors deeply regret this circumstance and apologize for this misconduct to the Journal of Neurosurgical Sciences, to the Asian J Neurosurg, as well as to the readers of the journals.
