Abstract Wasting of muscle is usually a feature of lower motor neuron pathology, astonishingly parasagittal intracranial lesion affecting parietal lobe of cerebral hemisphere may be associated with Wasting of contralateral calf muscle. It can be associated with spastic foot drop. Foot drop is a common neurological state presenting with weakness involving anterior tibialis muscle causing inability of foot extension. Foot drop is commonly caused lower motor neuron disease pathology and a common cause includes L4-L5 radiculopathy or peroneal peripheral neuropathy. However, extremely rarely can be caused by intracranial pathology e.g. falcine meningioma and represents an important localization sign. Authors report an interesting case of calf muscle wasting caused by falcine meningioma, which may escape detection to remind rare but extremely important neurological localizing sign and ask for through and further neurological evaluation prior to concluding a final neurological diagnosis.

Resected Bowel

A dynamic ultrasound sector scanner with 5.0 and 7.5 MHz transducers was used for examination of resected bowel specimens with rectal carcinoma. Pathologic structures, i.e. tumour extension into or beyond the bowel wall, and perirectal lymph nodes, were marked. Corresponding parts of the tissue were embedded in paraffin and a detailed comparison between the findings at ultrasound and those in the histopathological sections was made. There was a good accordance between the histopathologic and ultrasonic findings which makes it possible to perform an exact preoperative staging of rectal carcinomas with ultrasound. Twenty patients with primary tumours of the rectum preoperatively underwent ultrasonography with a prototype transrectal probe with the same type of crystals and frequences. In the 14 cases, however, where ultrasound findings could be compared with the histopathologic findings only six (43%) were correctly staged at ultrasonography. Certain difficulties were encountered in the preoperative examinations with a rigid probe as used in this study.
