Three cases are presented in which a rare complication occurred after a shunt operation for hydrocephalus. On postoperative computerized tomography (CT) scans, extensive low-density areas appeared in the white matter along the ventricular catheter. After shunt revision, gradual resolution or
Cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) edema and porencephaly are rare postoperative complications of a ventricular shunt that result from obstruction of the distal catheter, especially in children with taut ventricles. We report a 10-year-old male with cerebellar germinoma complicated by obstructive
The author describes 2 cases of children with growing skull fractures (GSFs). Surgical exploration of the widened fracture shortly after the head injury failed to reveal a dural tear because the neuroimaging studies (MR images, CT scans, and skull radiographs) had not been accurately interpreted,
Intravenous drug abuse causes many health problems. From March 1989 to January 1990 of 27 Rh-negative women (28 pregnancies) referred to our centre, 4 women (5 pregnancies) were Rh immunized due to the sharing of needles and blood with their Rh-positive partners. Severe hydrops was present in 4 of
Twenty critically ill infants with abnormal head growth and/or seizures underwent CAT of the brain. Signs of birth asphyxia or respiratory distress were present in all. Six out of ten infants with abnormal size of the head had abnormal CAT scans. Nine out of ten infants with seizures had abnormal
In a 13-month period, ligation of the persistent ductus was carried out in 23 prematurely born babies with severe respiratory distress syndrome who were all respirator-dependent. Mean gestational age was 30.6 weeks (26-36 weeks), mean birth weight 1490 g (850-3090 g) with 3 patients under 1000 g.
Forty-six neonates with intracranial hemorrhage were classified into three groups on the basis of the major computerized tomography (CT) scan findings: Group I consisted of 24 cases of subarachnoid hemorrhage, Group II 20 cases of intracerebral and/or intraventricular hemorrhage, and Group III two
Our objective was to evaluate the diagnostic and prognostic value of sonography hypoechoic lesions. A retrospective study revealed revealed a total of 21 cases diagnosed over a period of 10 years. Most of the diagnosis were made in the third trimester. The presence fluid-filled lesions within the
BACKGROUND
The present study describes the pathologic changes in the brain and the spinal cord of aborted, stillbirth and deformities of newborn lambs infected with viral agents.
METHODS
From February 2012 to March 2013, a total of 650 aborted fetuses from 793 pregnant ewes were studied from 8
Cranial computerized tomographic (CT) scan and serum creatine phosphokinase-BB(CPK-BB) determination were done in 85 asphyxiated newborn infants, in some of them, long-term follow-up study including neurodevelopmental assessment and CT scan were also carried out. The types of early brain damage
A wide spectrum of traumatic abnormalities has been demonstrated by computed tomography. CT findings in acute trauma range from cerebral edema and contusion to intracerebral or extracerebral hematoma, subarachnoid and intraventricular hemorrhage and varying combinations thereof. Late traumatic
The rational management of patients with head injury calls for the closest cooperation between the radiologist and neurosurgeon. Until the last three to four years, cerebral angiography had been considered the diagnostic procedure of choice for the management of patients with suspected traumatically
A 20-month-old boy presented with a intraparenchymal mass in the right frontoparietal area manifesting as complex partial seizure, secondary generalization and left hemiparesis. Magnetic resonance images (MRI) of the brain showed inhomogeneously enhancing mass in the right frontoparietal area which
