    Notes: Summary We investigated the haemodynamic dysfunction and secondary thalamic and brainstem atrophy in 24 patients with angiographically proven cerebral arteriovenous malformations (AVM) and no clinical history of cerebral haemorrhage. Cerebral blood flow (CBF) was measured by the method using either stable Xenon or single photon emission computerized tomography (SPECT). Morphological changes in the thalamus and brainstem were evaluated by magnetic resonance imaging (MRI). Two factors are considered to influence hypoperfusion in the ipsilateral cerebral and contralateral cerebellar hemisphere and secondary atrophy of the thalamus and brainstem. One is the size of the nidus and the other is the involvement of the basal ganglia. It is presumed that continuous haemodynamic stress over a long period of time may cause irreversible histological changes in areas remote from the lesion, especially in the AVM which demonstrates involvement of the basal ganglia or a large nidus.

    Notes: Summary Although Dimer X is said to be a low toxic water soluble contrast medium, epileptic seizures sometimes occur during or after Dimer X ventriculography. The toxicity of this dye was examined in rats and possible prophylactic measures were evaluated. From the results of our experiment it was concluded that Dimer X of low concentration should be used with premedication of Valium and Decadron.

    Notes: Summary Twelve patients with cerebral vascular malformations (5 cavernous angiomas, 1 thrombosed arteriovenous malformation, and 6 venous angiomas) were studied with magnetic resonance (MR) imaging. All lesions were clearly depicted. Characteristic MR findings were obtained mainly on T2-weighted images: a markedly low intensity area was always seen. The margins of arteriovenous malformation (AVM) and venous angioma were irregular while those of cavernous angioma were smooth in all planes on T2-weighted images. Gradient-echo (GrE) pulse sequences were more sensitive than T2-weighted spin echo (SE) in lesion detection. MR imaging could play an important role in the differential diagnosis of cerebral vascular malformations.
