We studied the plain film findings in eight patients with immature bone-marrow infarction and correlated the findings with those of MR imaging in four of the cases. Seven patients had underlying systemic disease, including sickle cell disease (two), systemic lupus erythematosus (two), acute
Fluid-attenuated inversion recovery vascular hyperintensities (FVHs) are seen in some cases with cerebral hemodynamic impairment and collateral flow. Because the worst outcomes of patients with borderzone infarcts were mainly correlated with impaired hemodynamics, the presence of FVH might provide
A phenomenon of cerebral infarction following acute subdural hematoma (ASDH) in infants and young children, termed cerebral infarction following ASDH (CIASDH), has been well recognized, though both its mechanisms and risk factors have been poorly understood. The purpose of the present study was to
Giant serpentine aneurysms have recently been successfully treated with endovascular parent artery occlusion with or without distal by-pass. This report retrospectively analyses the outcome of endovascular parent artery occlusion for intracranial giant serpentine aneurysms. Medical records and
BACKGROUND
We recently reported a high technical and 30-day clinical success rate among the first 100 patients treated with the tubular, serpentine design, stainless steel, balloon-expandable stent (beStent) in Israel. The present study examined the clinical results in these patients after the first
We report the acute and 30-day results with a new serpentine-design, tubular, stainless steel, balloon-expandable stent (beStent) in the first 100 patients. One hundred forty-eight stents were used to treat 103 narrowings in the left anterior descending (n = 46), left circumflex (n = 20), and right
A 73 year old man developed a left ventricular pseudoaneurysm following acute myocardial infarction. Coronary angiography showed triple vessel disease with total occlusion of the right coronary artery. On left ventriculography, a serpentine-like pseudoaneurysm was demonstrated that originated from
This report presents a patient with an intradural spinal arteriovenous fistula complicated by infarction of the cord. The diagnosis of an arteriovenous malformation was made on the magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) study with the demonstration of intraspinal serpentine areas of low signal intensity
OBJECTIVE
Spinal dural arteriovenous fistulas (DAVF), the most common vascular malformations of the spine, are usually supplied by branches of the intercostal or lumbar arteries. Rarely, the DAVF are fed by branches of the hypogastric artery. Only 12 such cases have been reported.
METHODS

The first pathologically documented case of progressive late delayed postirradiation encephalopathy in a 37-year-old man with Klüver-Bucy syndrome (KBS) is reported here. The pathological findings and clinical course of KBS with recurrent stroke-like episodes and partial epilepsy within a 7-year
Dolichoectasia of the intracranial arteries is a rare condition, and the vertebrobasilar system and the internal carotid artery is most commonly involved. We describe a rare case of a 60-year-old man with dolichoectasia of the anterior cerebral artery (ACA). The patient presented with continuous
Partially thrombosed giant aneurysms are one of the most difficult diseases in the neurosurgical field. We have had 18 of these cases namely, three in vertebral artery, four in basilar artery, four in internal carotid artery, five in middle cerebral artery, and two in anterior communicating artery.
The widely disparate characteristics that exist among the different stent designs currently available for clinical use may impact on their acute and late angiographic and clinical results. The BeStent (Medtronic Instent, MN) is a relatively new stainless steel, laser-cut, serpentine stent design
OBJECTIVE
Optimal treatment strategies and neurologic outcome after stroke depend on an accurate characterization of the lesion. There is a need for high resolution noninvasive imaging for assessment of the infarct size, perfusion, and vascular territory. MRI at the ultra high field (UHF) of 8 T
OBJECTIVE
Idiopathic and diabetic-associated muscle necrosis are similar, uncommon clinical entities requiring conservative management and minimal intervention to avoid complications and prolonged hospitalization. An early noninvasive diagnosis is therefore essential. We evaluated the magnetic
