    Epidural haematoma of the posterior fossa with delayed operation (1980)
    Springer
    Acta neurochirurgica 53 (1980), S. 275-281 
    Details
    ISSN: 0942-0940
    Keywords: Computed tomography ; epidural haematoma ; head injury ; posterior fossa
    Source: Springer Online Journal Archives 1860-2000
    Topics: Medicine
    Notes: Summary A case of chronic epidural haematoma of the posterior fossa is reported. The lesion was studied with cerebral angiography and computed tomography. The patient was under observation for two weeks before the extradural clot was. removed. The membrane surrounding the haematoma was examined histologically. The importance of computed tomography in the diagnosis of traumatic lesions of the posterior fossa is emphasized.

    Post-traumatic diffuse axonal brain injury. Analysis of 78 patients studied with Computed Tomography (1986)
    Springer
    Acta neurochirurgica 81 (1986), S. 27-35 
    Details

    Notes: Summary A group of 78 severe head injury patients showing computerized tomography (CT) findings of the so-called “diffuse axonal injury” is analyzed. These patients represent 20% of the authors' series of severe head injury. Twenty-three patients showed small intraparenchymal haemorrhages in the CT scan study, 15 intraventricular haemorrhage and 40 patients had both intraparenchymal and intraventricular haemorrhages. Signs of brainstem haemorrhagic contusion were seen in 29 (38%) patients. Generalized brain swelling superimposed on the above findings was present in 75% of the cases. Raised intracranial pressure, which was found in 50% of the patients, correlated with the presence of ventriculocisternal collapse in the CT scan and an unfavourable outcome. Only 4 patients in this series made a good recovery, 13 developed a moderate disability, 11 a severe disability, 12 became vegetative and 38 (49%) died. The prognosis with this post-traumatic lesion is the worst in the authors' severe head injury series after excluding cases with subdural haematoma.

    Chronic adult hydrocephalus due to uncommon causes (1980)
    Springer
    Acta neurochirurgica 55 (1980), S. 85-97 
    Details
    ISSN: 0942-0940
    Keywords: Hydrocephalus ; Paget's disease ; colloid cyst ; arteriovenous malformation ; cysticercosis ; intracranial pressure ; computed tomography
    Source: Springer Online Journal Archives 1860-2000
    Topics: Medicine
    Notes: Summary The authors report on four unusual cases of chronic adult hydrocephalus extracted from a large personal series of patients with hydrocephalic dementia. A syndrome resembling that of normal pressure hydrocephalus was due to the following aetiologies in these patients: Paget's disease of the skull, unruptured cerebral arteriovenous malformation, colloid cyst of the third ventricle, and cerebromeningeal cysticercosis. All these patients exhibited disturbances in cerebrospinal fluid dynamics at the time of study, and were considerably improved by CSF shunting. The value of the continuous CSF pressure monitoring and the constant infusion test in selecting patients with chronic hydrocephalus for shunt therapy is emphasized.

    Meningioangiomatosis: advanced imaging and pathological study of two cases (1995)
    Springer
    Neuroradiology 37 (1995), S. 120-123 
    Details
    ISSN: 1432-1920
    Keywords: Meningioangiomatosis ; Magnetic resonance imaging ; Malignant meningioma
    Source: Springer Online Journal Archives 1860-2000
    Topics: Medicine
    Notes: Abstract Meningioangiomatosis (MA) is a rare benign intracranial tumour of uncertain pathogenesis, with only 33 cases reported in the literature. Imaging features have been described in 21 cases, only 3 with contrast-enhanced MRI. We present two cases of MA with MRI and/or CT findings and gross, ultrastructural, and immunohistochemical characteristics. MRI is particularly helpful for establishing the origin of the lesion and its anatomical location, while CT shows calcification, if present. The pathological characteristics establish the diagnosis and underline the differences from other entities such as malignant meningioma, one of the most important differential diagnostic considerations.
