A 5-year-old neutered male Beagle mix dog had a 5-day history of generalized tonic-clonic seizures. Before the seizures, the dog had a 1-2-month history of progressive right hemiparesis. In computed tomography images, a presumed extraaxial mass with hyperostosis and destruction of the skull covering
BACKGROUND
Fibrous bone dysplasia is an unusual disorder of the maturation of bone, seen as hyperostosis of the craniofacial bones and the diaphyses of long bones. Monostotic and polyostotic forms occur, depending on whether one or more bones are affected. The diagnosis is radiological (cranial CT
A 34-year-old women without history of seizures was admitted to our hospital because of the diminished responsiveness and the repeated blinking for two days. Her past history showed neither surgery nor inflammation of the thyroid gland. General physical examination was normal. On neurological
IgG4-related disease is an autoimmune process that presents with tumefactive lesions characterized by storiform fibrosis, a dense lymphoplasmacytic infiltrate rich in IgG4+ plasma cells, obliterative phlebitis, and often elevated serum IgG4 levels. Central nervous system IgG4-related BACKGROUND
Diffuse idiopathic skeletal hyperostosis (DISH) may lead to dysphagia caused by osteophytes of the cervical spine. Osteophytes can be resected transorally or transcervically, but operative ablation should not be indicated generously because of the threat of severe complications.

BACKGROUND
Immunoglobulin G4 (IgG4)-related disease is a systemic syndrome, characterized by sclerosing lesions and usually associated with a raised serum IgG4 level; the pancreas, salivary glands, and lacrimal glands are typically affected. Recently, it has been suggested that IgG4-related
Hyperostotic bone dysplasias are characterized by progressive hyperostosis and sclerosis of the cranium and facial bones. As a result of progressive bony overgrowth, intracranial pressure may increase and lead to brain and nerve compression, cranial nerve palsies, and an increased incidence of
METHODS
A 3.5-year-old spayed female Domestic Shorthair cat was evaluated for new onset seizures and lateralising signs indicative of a lesion in the right prosencephalon. Magnetic resonance imaging and computed tomography of the head revealed hypoplasia of the right cerebral hemisphere and changes
"Fahr's Disease" is characterized by bilateral and symmetrical calcifications of the Globus Pallidus (systematically extending to the Commisura Anterior and the Capsula Interna, and less commonly to the Putamen, the Centrum Semi-Ovale and the Cerebral Cortex), and of the Cerebellar Nucleus Dentalus
A 56-year-old female with a history of chronic alcoholism until age 38 y with a relapse between ages 45 and 46 y developed seizures, psychosis, and hemianopia to the left at age 46 y. Imaging revealed a right parieto-occipital lesion with intralesional bleeding. Five months after the first lesion
We report two 71-year-old female monozygotic twins presenting with advanced hyperostosis frontalis interna, obesity, shortness and cognitive impairment. They both have suffered from generalized seizures since their early adulthood. Moreover, the patients showed some additional conditions only
OBJECTIVE
The usual initial dose of prostaglandin E1 (PGE1) for ductal-dependent congenital heart disease (CHD) is 50-100 ng/kg/minute. The aim of this study was to review our experience of a low initial dose of PGE1 treatment in early newborns with congenital heart disease and patent ductus
