The author makes a critical review of the literature concerning dependant and passive-aggressive personalities. After putting them in a historic perspective, he presents the various etiologic hypotheses. Special attention is given to the clinical and therapeutic aspects. The author concludes that despite the supposed high incidence of these two personality disorders, the reliability of the diagnoses and the natural history of the disorders remain to be explored in a prospective and systematic manner, before definite conclusions can be drawn regarding therapy.

Colloid Cysts

Background: Colloid cysts of the third ventricle are a rare entity with an unclear natural history. Although intervening in the setting of a symptomatic patient is fairly straightforward, decision-making for asymptomatic patients is not. Few studies address this question and proposed risk factors for cyst progression vary.A cyst diameter exceeding 1 cm is a common indication for surgery. This is rooted in the belief that the natural history is continued growth. A few cases have recently surfaced that suggests some cysts may spontaneously regress without complication. We describe our experience with two such cases and contrast it with those of others. Methods: We collected all cases of “colloid cysts” identified as incidental findings on Brain CT scans in a large urban center with available follow-up. We then conducted a comprehensive review of the literature. Results: Among all incidental cases from our database, none required surgery and two were found to decrease in size on neuroimaging surveillance with interesting evolution in MRI signal characteristics. These cysts remain asymptomatic at last follow up. Conclusions: The natural history of colloid cysts includes spontaneous regression. This should be mentioned in counseling asymptomatic patients.

AbstractPleomorphic adenoma arising in the external auditory canal is rare. We report the case of a 38-year-old man. To better grasp the clinical features and natural history of this uncommon tumour, we also reviewed the world wide literature and found 24 similar cases, which we analysed together with our own.

Sinonasal Malignant Melanoma

AbstractSinonasal malignant melanoma is rare and usually occurs in the nasal cavity. Presentation is often varied and occurs late in the natural history of the disease, resulting in a poor prognosis. A case is reported of a patient with malignant melanoma arising from the frontal sinus who presented with a forehead swelling and progressive confusion. A review of the literature on malignant melanoma in the nasal cavity and paranasal sinuses regarding its presentation, site of origin and principles of management is discussed.

Abstract BACKGROUND AND IMPORTANCE: Vein of Galen aneurysmal malformations (VGAMs) arise from persistent arteriovenous shunting from primitive choroidal vessels into the median prosencephalic vein of Markowski, the embryonic precursor of the vein of Galen. VGAMs rarely present past infancy, and their natural history in adults is unknown. We report the first case of a familial-associated VGAM in an asymptomatic adult female patient. The clinical features of this case are presented alongside a systematic review of the literature on adult VGAM cases to assess the natural history, clinical management, and genetic basis of this rare neurovascular lesion. CLINICAL PRESENTATION: A previously healthy 44-year-old woman with a family history of a VGAM in a stillborn presented with an 8-week onset of dizziness and vertigo that spontaneously resolved. Time-resolved magnetic resonance angiography identified a choroidal VGAM. No intervention was undertaken at this time because of the patient's asymptomatic status after 9 months of follow-up. CONCLUSION: Based on our review of the literature, this is the first case report of a familial-associated VGAM in an adult patient and suggests that VGAM development can be genetically linked. Of 15 adult VGAM cases previously reported, all patients were either symptomatic or treated, thus precluding determination of VGAM natural history in adults. Patient outcomes correlated with the severity of presenting symptoms, which ranged from asymptomatic to immediately life-threatening. We hypothesize that self-selection may render VGAMs to be more benign for them to persist past childhood. Further investigation of the molecular biology underlying VGAM development is warranted.
