OBJECTIVE
To summarize the experience in surgical treatment for middle cerebral aneurysm (MCAA), and results and prognosis thereof.
METHODS
The clinical data, including location, size, main presentations, and Hunt & Hess grade, of 55 consecutive MCAA patients were prospectively analyzed. The
Cavernous malformations (CMs) located at the foramen of Monro (FM) are relatively rare benign vascular malformations. Knowledge of FM CM is poor. The aims of this study were to describe the incidence, clinical presentation, radiological features, surgical approaches, and neurological outcomes for FM
The clinical and pathologic features of 15 new cases of the uncommon primary or granulomatous angiitis of the central nervous system (PACNS) are described. To date, only 108 such cases have been reported in the English literature. Clinically, most PACNS patients have been young or middle-aged (mean

The authors present the results of own investigations on the occurrence of side effects following myelography with the contrast medium Amipaque administered usually by the lumbar route. Sixty patients aged 21-65 years with various diseases of the spinal cord and cauda equina were studied. Clinical
Temporal lobe epilepsies (TLE) represent the majority of the partial symptomatic/cryptogenic epilepsies. Excellent results of epilepsy surgery in well-selected patients have encouraged a search for localizing and lateralizing signs that could assist in the identification of the best surgical
Palinacousis (auditory perseveration) is a rarely reported symptom of temporal lobe dysfunction. We describe a new case. A 50-year-old woman presented with nausea, vomiting, and global dysphasia, followed by two generalized seizures. Examination was otherwise normal, and computed tomography showed a
Giant fusiform aneurysm of the anterior cerebral artery (ACA) involving the anterior communicating artery (AcomA) is difficult to treat, and its postoperative course is not well known. We treated a patient with subarachnoid hemorrhage (SAH) due to rupture of a giant fusiform aneurysm of the ACA
BACKGROUND
Acute oculomotor nerve (CN III) palsies are commonly attributed to microvascular disease or compressive lesions and aneurysms, but may rarely be associated with ischemic large vessel disease. We report a case of an extracranial internal carotid artery (ICA) dissection heralded by CN III
