We reported a 66-year-old right-handed man, in whom developmental stuttering had almost been cured previously, who suffered a brain tumor. He developed not only left hemiparesis but also speech dysfluency such as acquired stuttering and aphasia. MRI showed a brain tumor in the body of the corpus
BACKGROUND
The major cause of non-ischemic high-flow priapism is post-traumatic vascular injury leading to an arterio-lacunar fistula. However, rare causes such as tumors may induce priapism. This is the first report of a malignant glomus tumor localized in the corpora cavernosa.
OBJECTIVE
The aim
Published data on TP53 mutations can be used to examine the question of whether generalized hypermutability is a necessary condition for tumorigenesis. Although individual mutations do play an etiologic role in tumor formation, the evidence so far does not make it necessary to assume a general
In endolymphatic sac tumors associated with von Hippel-Lindau disease, early detection and surgery have been warranted to avoid associated neurological morbidity. However, in lately discovered tumors, hearing preserving surgery is often impossible and timing of surgical resection is difficult to
Trousseau's syndrome involves unexplained thrombotic events along with malignancy. We report the cases of 3 patients undergoing chemotherapy for gastric cancer in whom Trousseau's syndrome occurred. Case 1 involved a 43-year-old woman undergoing S-1/cisplatin( CDDP) combination therapy as first-line
BACKGROUND
Pediatric pituitary neoplasms and associated pituitary apoplexy are uncommon. There are few reports in pediatric patients of pituitary apoplexy causing focal arterial compression or diffuse vasospasm resulting in cerebral infarction, and the acute, focal neurological deficits associated
BACKGROUND
Most deaths in the intensive care unit (ICU) involve withholding or withdrawing multiple life-sustaining therapies, but little is known about how to proceed practically and how this process affects family satisfaction.
OBJECTIVE
To examine the duration of life-support withdrawal and its
OBJECTIVE
In the course of their lives most patients with von Hippel-Lindau (VHL) disease require treatment for several symptom-producing hemangioblastomas of the cerebellum, brainstem, or spinal cord. However, many tumors never produce symptoms and do not require treatment. Detection at an early
Pheochromocytomas are neuroendocrine tumors, and its cardiac involvement may include transient myocardial dysfunction, acute coronary syndrome (ACS), and even ventricular arrhythmias.A patient was referred for evaluation of stuttering chest pain, and his electrocardiogram showed T-wave inversion
and Importance: The frontal aslant tract (FAT) is a white matter fiber pathway connecting the superior frontal gyrus to Broca area. This tract in the dominant hemisphere has been shown to play a role in speech initiation and production, and direct subcortical stimulation can induce Functional brain mapping during awake surgery procedures is the gold standard technique in the management of left frontal lobe tumors. Nevertheless, a unified picture of the language subsystems encountered during left frontal lobe mapping is still lacking. We retrospectively analyzed the 49 cortical
