Neurosurgical Intervention

AbstractSinus pericranii (SP) are abnormal vascular connections between extracranial scalp venous channels and intracranial dural sinuses. This vascular abnormality rarely results in significant sequelae, but in select cases, it can be symptomatic. We describe the case of a 7-year-old girl with an SP who experienced intermittent visual, motor, and sensory symptoms not previously described in the literature. Her symptoms resolved after surgical treatment of the SP. We propose a mechanism for her symptoms and the rationale for the role of neurosurgical intervention along with a review of the literature.

Prodromal Symptoms

Fournier's gsngrene is a rare disease involving the scrotum and the penis with occasional extension up to the abdominal wall. The etiology of the disease, commonly without prodromal symptoms and with sudden onset, is still not fully understood. The organisms are usually streptococcus haemoliticus and/or anerobic bacteria. We report a case of Fournier's gangrene, presenting septic shock. The patient was treated with reanimatory care, antibiotics, local excision and debridment. Speaking about anatomical and etiopathogenetic hypotheses, we discuss the diagnostic problems and the treatment of the disease. We emphasize the role of the early diagnosis.
