    Notes: Abstract A 27-year-old man with a traumatic direct dural arteriovenous fistula (DAVF) was treated using embolisation microcoils. He had suffered blunt trauma to the head while drunk and was aware of no neurological deficit. A few days after the accident, however, he noticed a bruit in the right temple. Angiography demonstrated a direct DAVF fed by the right middle meningeal artery and draining into a right temporal dural vein and the ipsilateral cavernous sinus. A Tracker-18 catheter was passed without difficulty through the fistula and the draining vein was then embolised from distal to proximal with microcoils, and finally the fistula was occluded with microcoils, resulting in total obliteration of the fistula. Immediately after the embolisation, the patient could no longer hear the bruit. Thus, when a microcatheter can be introduced into the draining vein, microcoils can be used as emboli in the treatment of direct DAVF.

    Notes: Abstract On the exciton states localized at a two-dimensional stacking fault interface in a layered crystal BiI3, some nonlinear optical phenomena clearly appear reflecting large transition probability. The optical Stark shift and other high density exciton effect on the energy-shift and the spectral broadening are observed with clear separation under intense laser pumping by time-resolved measurements. The optical Stark shift is analyzed based on the dressed exciton model. The ultrafast optical response faster than 3 ps for the pump-laser field is confirmed on the Stark shift. Degenerate four-wave-mixing signals show fairly long dephasing time of ∼40 ps in this system. The dephasing probability depends linearly on the pump-laser intensity in the same manner as that of the spectral line-broadening reflecting the relaxation process. The dephasing mechanisms are understood by the exciton scattering at high density in parallel with the spectral changes. The blue-shift due to the high density excitons are discussed on the basis of exciton-exciton interaction in connection with a phase-space filling theory in two-dimensional systems.
