Since treatment of herpes simplex virus encephalitis (HSVE) is most effective when started early, a sensitive and specific method for early diagnosis would be of great benefit. MRI and CT are commonly used for this purpose. In this study, we presented two patients who had serologically confirmed
A review of the literature shows that long-lasting neurological complications of eclampsia are rare, but that, when present, they frequently involve visual function. Two patients are reported, whose symptomatology suggested damage to the posterior region of both cerebral hemispheres. The first
Thrombosis of the deep cerebral venous system is usually fatal, and patients are frequently stuporous or comatose at presentation. This report describes serial radiological and neuropsychological observations in an 18-year-old woman who remained alert and survived this disorder. In association with
We examined a patient who had signs of a cerebral hemisphere lesion: right hemiparesis, facial weakness, right hemianopsy, acustico-mnestic dysphasia, "empty speech," acalculia, visuo-spatial agnosia and constructional apraxia, but without changes in consciousness. Taking into account clinical
Intraventricular schwannoma is extremely rare, with only 35 cases reported to date in the literature. Consequently, its etiology and pathogenesis are still unclear, and thus require further investigations. Here, we report on and discuss a rare case of intraventricular schwannoma to Tumors at the trigone of the lateral ventricles are relatively rare. The authors have operated on eight cases with trigonal tumors during a 10-year period. Four cases were true intraventricular tumors arising from the ventricular walls, consisting of two meningiomas, one cavernous angioma, and one
Verbal recent memory disturbance was observed in a patient with a malignant glioma associated with left hippocampal atrophy. A 25 year-old male was admitted because of seizures. CT scan and MRI showed enhanced mass lesions in the left temporal lobe associated with ipsilateral hippocampal atrophy.
Laser-interstitial thermal therapy (LITT) has been supported by some authors as an ablative treatment of glioblastoma multiforme (GBM). Although the effects of LITT have been modeled in vivo, the histologic effects in a clinical circumstance have not been described. We analyzed tissue We report the case of a patient with myelin oligodendrocyte glycoprotein (MOG)- antibody-associated disease presenting with tumefactive demyelinating lesion. Neurological examination showed aphasia, acalculia, agraphia, alexia, left-right disorientation, and right hemiplegia. Brain magnetic
