Epileptiform Seizures

Dr. Bronnikov reported a case of Jackson's epilepsy treated operatively. A patient after being wounded with a hammer of the parietal bone first suffered paralysis of the right arm and difficulty in speaking, and after 2 months he had epileptiform seizures every 6 days. In the 4th month, he underwent surgery to remove fragments of the internal lamina pressing on the dura mater, and the defect was closed with a piece of fascia lata with fatty tissue. The patient was demonstrated 3 months after the operation; he had no seizures, his speech was normal, and his hand function had been restored.

Dura mater grafts are commonly applied in neurosurgery. The bovine pericardium is safe and associated with rare complications. We report a case of a patient presenting with tuberculum sellae meningioma and unusual complication after frontotemporal duroplasty using bovine pericardium. After two days of good postoperative evolution, the patient presents with neurological worsening and CT scan shows intraparenchymal hematoma on the right, with perilesional edema, requiring surgery to drain and replace the pericardium of a fascia lata graft. with good postoperative evolution. Pediculated pericranium, temporal fascia and fascia lata are the most effective and safe choice to replace the dura mater. Among heterologous grafts, bovine pericardium is associated with few complications. However, complications such as inflammationand infection are related to the substance glutaraldehyde, present in such graft.

Methodological and technical aspects as well as application and results of the precordial Xenon-residue-detection technique are critically reviewed. The results concern mainly normal flow in various regions of the heart esp. in the free wall of the right and left ventricle, poststenotic flow in patients with coronary artery disease in relation to the degree of proximal nar-rowings as well as wall motion of the corresponding LV segment, bypassgraft flow and flow after drug interventions esp. nitrates, betablockers, the calcium-antagonist Nifedipine and the coronary dilator Dipyridamole. In spite of its serious limitations (high affinity of Xenon for fatty tissue, geometrical problems in the assessment of flow and its relation to anatomy, gas exchange in situations of high flow etc.), the technique is found to be a usefull investigatory tool. Due to its technical display and the related high costs routine application is, however, prohibitive.

Abstract Background This study aims at determining the biological effect of 75/25 w/w nano-hydroxyapatite/chitosan (nHAp/CS) scaffolds on bone regeneration, in terms of fraction of bone regeneration (FBR), total number of osteocytes (Ost), and osteocyte cell density (CD), as well as its biodegradability. Methods Two critical-size defects (CSDs) were bilaterally trephined in the parietal bone of 36 adult Sprague-Dawley rats (18 males and 18 females); the left remained empty (group A), while the right CSD was filled with nHAp/CS scaffold (group B). Two female rats died postoperatively. Twelve, 11, and 11 rats were euthanized at 2, 4, and 8 weeks post-surgery, respectively. Subsequently, 34 specimens were resected containing both CSDs. Histological and histomorphometric analyses were performed to determine the FBR, calculated as [the sum of areas of newly formed bone in lateral and central regions of interest (ROIs)]/area of the original defect, as well as the Ost and the CD (Ost/mm2) in each ROI of both groups (A and B). Moreover, biodegradability of the nHAp/CS scaffolds was estimated via the surface area of the biomaterial (BmA) in the 2nd, 4th, and 8th week post-surgery. Results The FBR of group B increased significantly from 2nd to 8th week compared to group A (P = 0.009). Both the mean CD and the mean Ost values of group B increased compared to group A (P = 0.004 and P < 0.05 respectively). Moreover, the mean value of BmA decreased from 2nd to 8th week (P = 0.001). Conclusions Based on histological and histomorphometric results, we support that 75/25 w/w nHAp/CS scaffolds provide an effective space for new bone formation.

Dorsal Interosseous Muscle

A 60-year-old man with wasting and weakness of the right hand following ulnar nerve entrapment at the elbow was referred for electrotherapy. An ulnar nerve transposition had been performed 2 years previously. This had produced some improvement in nerve conduction without significantly improving hand muscle function. The right first dorsal interosseous muscle (FDI) was stimulated for 4 hours per day over a 6-week period with a stimulus pattern replicating the discharge of a single motor unit from a healthy, fatigued FDI (patterned neuromuscular stimulation or PNMS). The response was assessed using a single case design. Significant improvements in the strength and fatigue resistance of the FDI were observed, associated with improvements in general hand function. PNMS may be useful in restoring hand function in patients with muscle atrophy following entrapment neuropathy.

Aggressive Clinical Behavior

AbstractIn patients with meningiomas, the presence of skull invasion is known to be a predictor of aggressive clinical behavior, which may negatively influence patient outcomes. In the present report, we discuss a case of fibrous meningioma with skull invasion. A 42-year-old woman was referred to our department presenting with hyperostosis in the right parietal bone. T1-weighted magnetic resonance imaging with gadolinium enhancement revealed prominent enhancement of the intraosseous lesion and dura mater. Following the removal of the tumor body and bone lesion, we performed immunohistochemical staining for osteopontin (OPN), matrix metalloproteinase- 2 (MMP2), and integrin β-1 (CD29). The tumor body was immunoreactive for OPN and CD29, but not MMP2, whereas, the bone lesion was immunoreactive for all the three antigens. The present case suggests that OPN, MMP2, and CD29 play key regulatory roles in bone invasion.

Extensive Involvement

✓ The management of spinal meningiomas with extensive involvement of the dura mater is controversial. The principal difficulty in performing a resection is the potential for complications associated with this approach. The authors present the case of a pregnant 35-year-old woman in whom bilateral lower-extremity numbness, weakness, gait ataxia, and myelopathy developed. Magnetic resonance imaging showed a recurrent thoracic meningioma with extensive infiltration of the dura mater. Durectomy, complete resection, and reconstruction were performed. The patient has not experienced a recurrence 21 months after her treatment. This case illustrates that thoracic spinal meningiomas with extensive dural involvement can be resected safely with a complete durectomy. The novel dural reconstruction involving the implantation of a fascia lata and bovine pericardium allograft is an effective way to reconstruct the dura to create an adequate barrier to cerebrospinal fluid.

Incidence of multiple flexor tendon rupture following distal radius fractures is rare with very few cases being reported in literature. We present an unusual case of a patient who had come to us with complaints of weakness and paresthesia of the right hand of one month prior and with a past history of dorsal plating for distal radius fracture nine years ago. Radiographs showed a distal radius fracture malunion with intact dorsal plate and protrusion of screws through the volar cortex. On exploration, attritional ruptures of all digital flexors were found with sparing of the Flexor Pollicis Longus tendon. The fibrous mass was excised and flexors reconstructed with a fascia lata graft. Attempt was made to correct the malunion with radial and ulnar osteotomies. At one year the patient had excellent restoration of digital flexion.
