    Notes: Summary Five unusual cases with massive haematoma of the corpus callosum caused by blunt head trauma are presented. Aside from the callosal haematomas, intraventricular and subarachnoid haemorrhages or small haemorrhagic foci in the basal ganglia or thalamus were common concomitant lesions on the computerized tomographic (CT) scan. The sites of the impacts were the frontal and occipital areas which were close to the midline and above the level of the corpus callosum. Severe and diffuse brain dysfunction was suggested by the severity of the Glasgow coma score (GCS) and the abnormality on multimodality evoked potentials. An intensive medical treatment such as barbiturate could be promising since a direct surgical approach was dubious because of additional damage to the severely injured brain.

    Notes: Summary ¶ The authors present the clinical and pathological features of a malignant triton tumour (MTT) in the lateral ventricle with neurofibromatosis type 1. A 57 year-old man presented with disorientation and memory disturbance. A Computed tomographic scan and magnetic resonance imaging studies revealed an enhancing lesion in the left lateral ventricle. A parieto-occipital transcallosal approach was taken and resection of the lesion was performed. The operative findings suggested that the tumour arose from the perivascular nerves. The final pathological diagnosis was a MTT. This is the first case of an intraventricular MTT. Aggressive treatment including radical surgery combined with radiochemotherapy is recommended for a MTT of the central nervous system.

    Notes: Physicochemical properties of glass ceramics in weakly buffered, supersaturated, metastable calcium and phosphate solution were studied. Formations of calcium phosphate precipitates were also analyzed thermodynamically. All biomaterials examined here showed primarily dissolution process and subsequent nucleation. Dissolution was enhanced in those which contained Na2O and/or SiC. The dissolution of calcium and phosphate ions from biomaterials and subsequent nucleation of calcium phosphate salts after induction time resulted in a stable equilibrium having solubility characteristics similar to octacalcium phosphate (OCP). The most soluble material, CPSN-SiC, showed an initial transient equilibrium with amorphous calcium phosphate (ACP). From above results, calcium phosphate ceramics had certain driving force of its own which kept the equilibrium of solution to OCP thermodynamically for 7 days. Despite the favorable solubility equilibrium attained, there still remain problems for clinical application.
