    Notes: Abstract Pheochromocytomas are uncommon tumors that represent a potentially curable cause of hypertension. They are usually located in the adrenal glands, but 10% arise from extra-adrenal sites, located along the paravertebral sympathetic chains. We report a case of primary hepatic pheochromocytoma responsible for a severe hypertension in a 24-year-old man. Echotomography showed a lightly heterogeneous mass located in the segment 8 of the liver. Iodine 131 — metaiodobenzylguanidine scintigraphy showed a large hepatic concentration of the tracer and no other localization. This tumor appeared highly vascularized on enhanced CT scan and on aortic angiography. Magnetic resonance imaging revealed a hepatic tumor with a high signal intensity on T2-weighted images and with a signal isointense to the liver on T1-weighted images. The hepatic venous sampling contained the highest catecholamine level, whereas the adrenal venous sampling was normal. After surgical resection of the hepatic tumor, the tension level and catecholamines plasmatic level normalized. No recurrent symptoms appeared during a 3-year follow-up.

    Multiple sclerosis and corpus callosum atrophy: Relationship of MRI findings to clinical data (1988)
    Springer
    Neuroradiology 30 (1988), S. 478-480 
    Details
    ISSN: 1432-1920
    Keywords: Multiple sclerosis ; Magnetic resonance imaging ; Corpus callosum atrophy

    Topics: Medicine
    Notes: Summary Among 110 patients (45 men, 65 women), aged 15 to 66, with clinical and/or biological diagnosis of multiple sclerosis (MS), severe to moderate corpus callosum (CC) atrophy was observed in 67 (60%) patients. Correlation between CC atrophy, brain atrophy, duration and severity of clinical symptoms, and high signal white matter areas, was carried out in 90 patients. Mean age was 46 years for those with severe CC atrophy, and 33 years for those without atrophy. Mean duration of the disease was 14 years in patients with severe atrophy, and 5 years in patients without atrophy. Severity of clinical symptoms is more pronounced in patients with severe CC atrophy. Numerous or large white matter high signal areas are observed in patients with severe CC atrophy on T2-weighted images. CC atrophy appears earlier than brain atrophy in the course of MS.

    Computed tomography of lumbar apophyseal joint lipoma: Report of three cases (1989)
    Springer
    Neuroradiology 31 (1989), S. 60-62 
    Details
    ISSN: 1432-1920
    Keywords: Lumbar spine ; Computed tomography ; Lipoma ; Apophyseal joint
    Source: Springer Online Journal Archives 1860-2000
    Topics: Medicine
    Notes: Summary The authors report three cases of lumbar apophyseal joint lipoma located at the L4/L5 or L5/S1 level. CT scan makes the diagnosis easily possible; indeed erosive changes with enlargement of the upper portion of the lumbar articular joint and anterior displacement of the top of the superior facet are associated with intra-articular fatty densities. Clinical symptoms are rarely encountered and may be related to narrowing of the upper portion of the intervertebral foramen.

    Neurofibromatosis with dural ectasia and bilateral symmetrical pedicular clefts: report of two cases (1992)
    Springer
    Neuroradiology 34 (1992), S. 107-109

    ISSN: 1432-1920
    Keywords: Spine ; Spondylolisthesis ; Stress fracture ; Pedicle ; Neurofibromatosis

    Topics: Medicine
    Notes: Summary We present two cases of bilateral, symmetrical pedicular clefts associated with dural ectasia in von Recklinghausen's disease (neurofibromatosis). In one case the pedicular cleft was at the T12 level, while in the other it was at L4, and was responsible for spondylolisthesis. Two hypotheses are advanced to explain the cleft: (1) a congenital, dysplastic osseous defect and (2) bilateral stress fractures related to thinning of the pedicle caused by dural ectasia.
