Absence of thick filaments from the A bands in tissue giving apparently normal histochemical reactions for myosin ATPase, was seen in a case of acute onset muscle weakness progressing rapidly to quadriplegia with cerebral involvement. There was also widespread degeneration of interstitial structures

Sequential changes of ascending myelopathy after spinal cord injury on magnetic resonance imaging: a case report of neurologic deterioration from paraplegia to tetraplegia.

Only registered users can translate articles

BACKGROUND Marked neurologic deterioration within a few days of traumatic spinal cord injury, known as subacute posttraumatic ascending myelopathy, is rare. Although several hypotheses regarding the pathogenesis of this condition have been proposed, the details remain elusive. OBJECTIVE To report a

Delayed neural degeneration following gamma knife radiosurgery in a patient with an arteriovenous malformation: a diffusion tensor imaging study.

Only registered users can translate articles

Gamma knife surgery (GKS) is a proven modality for the treatment of arteriovenous malformations (AVMs), but neural degeneration is a serious complication of GKS. In this study, we report on a patient who displayed delayed neural degeneration following GKR, using diffusion tensor imaging (DTI). A
