A 57-year old man with chronic alcoholism presented with apraxia of speech and disturbance of consciousness. He had a history of gastrectomy and had been drinking alcohol. The symptoms improved with administration of thiamine, but he later developed diarrhea and delirium, and died approximately 40
The authors present a case in which the clinico-evolutive particularity was an association between a periventricular tumour (multiform glioblastoma) and acute renal failure. Considerations are made on clinical signs determined by the neoplastic process (apraxia-agnosia hyperthermia, etc.), and on
BACKGROUND
Carbon monoxide (CO) poisoning has been shown to result in cognitive impairments. These disorders have rarely been reported. The present study aimed to evaluate these disturbances in five patients with a neuroanatomical study.
METHODS
There were two men and three women with an average of
It has been shown that carbon monoxide poisoning causes necrosis of the globus pallidum and the cerebral cortex, and a diffuse demyelination of the cerebral subcortical white matter, resulting in the impairment of the higher brain functions manifested as memory disturbances, apraxia, and agnosia.
UNASSIGNED
To evaluate the effectiveness of multiple small-diameter drilling decompression combined with hip arthroscopy for early oeteonecrosis of the femoral head (ONFH).
UNASSIGNED
Between March 2010 and December 2013, 91 patients with early ONFH were treated with the operation of multiple
OBJECTIVE
Assessment of a local hemostasis with a compressive, extemporaneous gutter glued to the alveolar crest after tooth avulsion in patients under anticoagulant and/or platelet aggregation inhibitors, and economical impact of this technique.
METHODS
Ninety-seven tooth extractions were performed
A minimally invasive anterior approach appears to be an attractive alternative to achieve capital realignment without violating femoral head vascular supply and avoiding hip dislocation in slipped capital femoral epiphysis. The aim of this study was to detail the technical steps of subcapital
OBJECTIVE
To study clinical effects of modified radical mastectomy with preservation of major and minor pectoral muscles.
METHODS
A retrospective analysis was carried out in 214 cases of breast cancer patients (including stage I 66 cases, stage II 141 cases and stage III 7 cases). Modified radical
Positron emission tomographic brain imaging and pathological examination have revealed that a chronic, intracerebral neuroinflammatory response lasting for years after a single brain injury may occur in humans. Evidence suggests the immune signaling molecule, tumor necrosis factor (TNF), is
We report a case of a cerebral tuberculoma in a 60-year-old woman with rheumatoid arthritis while receiving the anti-tumor necrosis factor alpha monoclonal antibody, adalimumab (Humira), for active disease. MR brain imaging for dyspraxia revealed a left parietal ring-enhancing lesion, which on
