✓ An aneurysmal bone cyst of the parietal bone is reported. A typical hemangioma was seen in the central part of the lesion. The pathological findings are described in detail and the theory of a pre-existing lesion discussed.

✓ The diagnostic and surgical aspects of aneurysmal bone cysts contiguous to fibrous dysplasia of the parietal bone are reported in two adolescents. While aneurysmal bone cyst and fibrous dysplasia are known to be associated, the association is rare and has not been reported previously in the calvaria.

✓ A case of chronic diploic hematoma of the parietal bone is reported. This lesion is considered to have developed over several years following minor head trauma. Clinical, radiological, and pathological findings of this rare lesion are described. To the authors' knowledge, this is the first reported case of such an uncommon traumatic lesion with a description of its appearance on magnetic resonance imaging. Also discussed are the possible pathogenetic mechanisms involved in the slowly progressive enlargement of the lesion.

✓ An aneurysmal bone cyst of the occipital bone, presenting as an intracranial space-occupying lesion, is reported. Clinical and neuroradiological findings are described in detail. The significance of angiographic and computerized tomographic findings is discussed.

✓ Eccrine porocarcinoma is a rare malignant tumor of the true sweat gland. It commonly presents in the lower extremities with lymphatic metastasis. The authors describe the clinical presentation, radiographic evidence, operative discoveries, and pathological findings in a patient with an eccrine porocarcinoma involving the soft tissue of the occiput, which had eroded through the cranium. A review of the literature failed to reveal any other such case. The discussion includes the epidemiology, pathogenesis, treatment, and outcome of eccrine porocarcinomas. The six reported cases of scalp eccrine tumors are reviewed.

✓ A case of giant ossifying fibroma of the cranial vault is reported. The rapid extensive growth of this large parietal bone tumor inaccurately suggested malignancy. The literature relative to this benign bone tumor as well as its surgical management and follow-up findings are presented.

✓ The radiographic features and long-term clinical outcome in three patients who presented at birth with a cystic suboccipital mass in direct communication with the fourth ventricle are reviewed. The pathological findings in a fourth infant who died are also discussed. All surviving infants were treated with cyst excision and diversion of cerebrospinal fluid. The prognosis in these children, followed from 6 to 20 years, surpasses that of the more common occipital encephalocele, for which this entity could be mistaken. The morphogenetic implications relative to more common congenital lesions in this location are discussed.

✓ This study shows that spinal cord pathology secondary to acute trauma in monkeys evolves with stepwise sequential changes. The acute damage is more central than peripheral. Depending on the amount of trauma, the subacute damage may be limited to central gray necrosis or may progress or evolve to include the neighboring white matter. These pathological changes may be taking place even in the presence of clinical improvement.

✓ An intramedullary cyst of the midcervical region, due to Corynebacterium diphtheriae gravis, is reported. The culture and identification of the organism are documented. The specific pathological findings at the initial cervical exposure and subsequent thoracic and lumbar exposures are described.
