Virchow-Robin spaces (VRS) are perivascular spaces in the brain and can normally be visualized in Magnetic Resonance Imaging (MRI). Dilated VRS (dVRS) are defined on the basis of their shape, and can rarely be observed in healthy subjects, or found in various diseases. A judgement of Enlarged Virchow-Robin spaces along the medullary perforators on brain magnetic resonance images (MRIs) of a 4-year-old, neurologically intact child with seizures are described. The differential diagnosis of cystic spaces in the centrum semiovale is discussed. The sparse MRI literature on bright
A 66year-old man with sustained fever was diagnosed as having acute myeloid leukemia with multilineage dysplasia. Induction therapy with etoposide and AraC was initiated, but was ineffective. Although fever had persisted for more than a few days, there was no evidence of any infection on
BACKGROUND
The occurrence of epilepsy is higher among elderly patients. The clinical manifestations of seizures, causes of epilepsy, and choice of anti-epileptic drugs (AEDs) are different in elderly people with epilepsy compared to the young.
OBJECTIVE
To evaluate the imaging (CT/MRI) observations
ADD 94057, a metabolite of fluzinamide, manufactured by the A. H. Robins Company, blocks chemically- and electrically-induced seizures in animals. The primary objective of this open add-on study was to evaluate patient tolerability of ADD 94057 at ascending target plasma concentrations. Nine
We report on the similar phenotypes and clinical course of two sisters. Both patients had an enlarged cisterna magna suggestive of cerebellar hypoplasia, agenesis/hypoplasia of the corpus callosum, Pierre Robin sequence requiring tracheostomy, camptodactyly, microphthalmia, colobomas, seizures, a
Virchow-Robin spaces normally surround the perforating arteries that enter the brain. These spaces are a well-defined sites where immunological reactions take place and they may have implications in the pathogenesis of a number of neuropathological conditions. We present the case of a 52-year-old
MRI signal changes within the hippocampal sulcus have been attributed to a dilated Virchow-Robin space within that sulcus, but no clinical correlates have previously been described. We present a 64-year-old man who developed right temporal seizures. MRI revealed an unusually enlarged Virchow-Robin
The cerebral glymphatic system, particularly the Virchow-Robin Spaces (VRS), plays an important role in waste clearance from the brain. Idiopathic generalized epilepsy (IGE) is a common epilepsy type associated with blood-brain-barrier dysfunction, abnormal exchange of cerebrospinal OBJECTIVE
To determine the cause and frequency of high-signal-intensity foci detected in the insular cortex and extreme capsule on thin-section, high-spatial-resolution, coronal, T2-weighted magnetic resonance (MR) images.
METHODS
The authors assessed high-signal-intensity areas in the insular
METHODS
A 4-year-old 26-kg (57.2-lb) spayed female Staffordshire Bull Terrier mix was evaluated because of a 24-hour history of cluster seizures.
RESULTS
Neurologic examination revealed altered mentation and multifocal intracranial signs; MRI was performed. The MRI findings included multifocal,
OBJECTIVE
To examine the long-term outcomes and complications in infants with upper airway obstruction and feeding difficulty who underwent bilateral mandibular distraction osteogenesis (MDO) within the first 3 months of life and to identify any preoperative characteristics that may predict the
BACKGROUND
Epilepsy can be one of symptoms of the damage to CNS in children, therefore neuroradiological examinations are necessary to complete diagnostics. The guidelines for imaging children with recent-onset epilepsy were published by experts of International League Against
Primary meningeal melanomatosis is a rare leptomeningeal tumor, and the diagnosis is challenging due to nonspecific clinical symptoms and radiological findings.A 21-year-old man presented with recurrent seizure and impaired memory. Cranial magnetic OBJECTIVE
Cranial pachymeningitis is a typically diffuse granulomatous disease, which often affects the tentorium and falx. We report a rare case of idiopathic cranial pachymeningoencephalitis focally affecting only the left parietal dura mater and adjacent inferior parietal lobule.
METHODS
