摘要:

SUMMARYA case of an osteochondroma, arising from the base of the skull is reported and the literature is reviewed. In particular, computerized tomography proved extremely valuable in confirming the diagnosis, defining the extent of the tumour mass, and assessing the effect on adjacent brain tissue.

摘要:

SUMMARYThe authors discuss the performance of Metrizamide Myelogram in the evaluation of the lumbar spine canal. The importance of functional studies is explained and their inclusion is recommended as an integral part of all lumbar myelograms. Dilution of the contrast with movement is noted and can be partly compensated for by careful collimation. Headache is the most common side effect not worsened by using 200 mg. Iodine per ml. or by using a total dose of 3000 mg. of Iodine.

摘要:

SUMMARYLumbar spinal stenosis is an important condition which has not been fully appreciated in the past. The diagnosis is largely clinical but radiology can materially assist its assessment. The condition often requires wide surgical decompression which produces a high rate of symptomatic relief. Intermittent claudication is a relatively common symptom in spinal canal stenosis and a careful clinical appraisal is required to distinguish it from claudication of arterial insufficiency.

SUMMARYFive new cases of Anterior Intervertebral Disc Herniations are reported.Anterior intervertebral disc hemiation is a common complication of chronic spinal trauma. It is often accompanied by vertebral fractures which present as localised, mild platyspondyly or as frank vertebral body fractures.Two groups of children are prone to develop the disease. I‐Healthy boys active in sport and II ‐Children with osteoporosis.The differential diagnosis includes discitis, tuberculosis, eosinophilic granuloma and specifically Scheuermann's dise

摘要:

SUMMARYTwo hundred and fifty four children presented to the Royal Alexandra Hospital for Children, Sydney, between 1972–1976 classified as “at risk”. Of these children, fifty one presented with fractures requiring orthopaedic attention. The clinical records and radiographs of these 51 children were reviewed. A practical radiological classification was formulated in order to assist in the diagnosis of the battered child syndrome. Differentiation between non‐accidental posttraumatic deformity, when the history of trauma is denied, and congenital anomaly, may be impossible. A plan of management for these children is di
