Introduction Pathophysiology of cervical artery dissection is complex and poorly understood. In addition to well-known causative predisposing factors, including major trauma monogenic connective tissue disorders, morphological characteristics the styloid process have been recently recognized as a possible risk factor for internal carotid dissection. Aims To study association anatomical with Methods Retrospective, multicenter, case–control patients age- sex-matched controls. Consecutive...

This is a case report of intramedullary spinal cord metastasis (ISCM) colorectal cancer (CRC). A 67-year-old male with no relevant medical history presented paresthesias in the lower limbs and paraparesis for 7 days. Thoracic magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) demonstrated an oval lesion suggestive metastatic lesion. Primary tumor was rectosigmoid transition zone invasive adenocarcinoma. He had rapidly progressive neurological condition became paraplegic urinary fecal incontinence....

We report the case of an 8-year-old boy with delayed psychomotor development, dysarthria, choreoathetosis, joint mild hyperlaxity, coarse hair, dry lax skin and facial dimorphisms. Cerebral magnetic resonance revealed diffuse vascular tortuosity, multiple loops in some arteries Willis ’ circle. Clinical presentation, corroborated by imagiological findings, raised suspicion a disorder copper metabolism. Serum ceruloplasmin were decreased lateral skull X-rays demonstrated bilateral occipital...
