摘要:

WE REPORT THE case of a girl who developed cerebellar medulloblastoma at the age of 12 years and in whom, 4 years after surgical removal and radiotherapy, neoplastic dissemination via the cerebrospinal fluid took place. After only partially effective systemic and intrathecal chemotherapy, an intrathecal administration of lymphokine-activated killer cells and recombinant interleukin-2 allowed complete clinical recovery persisting after a follow-up of 30 months.

摘要:

THE UNUSUAL COMPUTED tomographic findings of an extensive intramedullary lipoma of the dorsocervical spinal cord, which extended into the brain stem, in a 9-month-old infant are described and correlated with the surgical findings. The operative therapeutic options are discussed.

摘要:

COUGH ATTACKS ELICITED by movement of the neck and right arm are reported in a patient who had sustained several shoulder injuries and who had an anterior scalenectomy. The coughing was accompanied by weakness in the right upper limb. At exploration, the phrenic nerve was found adhered to the brachial plexus. The cough attacks disappeared, and the weakness of the right upper limb improved somewhat after lysis of the adhesions between the phrenic nerve and the plexus and after external neurolysis of the upper, middle, and lower trunks. Postoperatively, the patient could elevate his right arm without coughing.

摘要:

THE AUTHORS PRESENT two cases of severe radial nerve injury with different sites of pathology but a similar mechanism: the “windmill” pitching motion of competitive softball. Both patients required surgical intervention with neurolysis, and both improved postoperatively. The literature on related radial nerve injuries is briefly reviewed and pathophysiological mechanisms are discussed.

摘要:

THE CASE OF a 16-month-old baby girl with craniosynostosis associated with venous sinus stenosis and sinus pericranii is reported. Monitoring of intracranial pressure indicated increased cerebrospinal fluid outflow resistance in addition to increased intracranial pressure. Despite intracranial hypertension, however, the pressure-buffering capacity, expressed as pressure-volume index, was remarkably elevated. A similar case has not been reported in the literature. The mechanism of pressure-volume index elevation and the management of this anomaly are discussed.
