Objective: ADC calculation can improve the diagnostic efficacy of MR imaging in brain tumor grading and differentiation. Methods: Apparent diffusion coefficient (ADC) values ratios 33 low-grade (23 astrocytomas, 10 oligodendrogliomas) 40 high-grade (25 metastases 15 astrocytomas) malignant tumors were prospectively evaluated. Results: Tumoral (r = −0.738, P < 0.000) −0.746, well correlated with higher degree malignancy quite effective (P 0.000). By using cutoff 0.99 for tumoral value 1.22...
There have been several treatment modalities to reduce the volume of syringomyelic cavity and pressure on brainstem in Chiari Malformation Type I (CM-I). Foramen magnum decompression with without duroplasty were compared this retrospective study.From 2003 2006, 27 patients suffering from CMI operated at our institute. The following measured: ratio spinal cord; pre-operative tonsillar herniation foramen magnum; pre- postoperative tonsillo-dural distance; spinoposterior fossa dural angle.83.3...
Antiepileptic and neuroprotective effects of melatonin (N-acetyl-5-methoxytryptamine) have been shown at higher doses (50-160 mg/kg). We aimed to investigate the antiepileptic low-dose (10 mg/kg) on pentylenetetrazol (PTZ)-induced experimental epilepsy model.Twelve male albino guinea pigs weighing 500-800 g were used in our work. Initially, latent period, seizure intensity mortality parameters evaluated during epileptic induced by PTZ. After a recovery period 7 days, agent, (which is...
Three cases with foot drop following brain tumors in patients suffering from parasagittal pathology are reported. Foot was the first complaint our series. We generally notice as a sign of lumbar disc herniation or peroneal nerve lesions but rarely may also occur lesions.
Various approaches to expose the orbit have been used, such as cranial, lateral, and medial approaches. In an effort gain exposure without necessitating a craniotomy, we developed transmaxillary approach orbit.An was that uses data obtained by performing 24 dissections in 12 cadaveric heads. After sublabial incision maxilla, maxillotomy is performed course of infraorbital nerve identified. The orbital floor opened, accessed.This technique offers access inferomedial inferolateral inferior...
Cranial gunshot wounds frequently produce devastating injuries to central nervous system (CNS) structures. Surgical therapy and primary secondary debridement, including repair of dural defects removal retained intracranial bone metal fragments, were applied 374 cranial wound victims at Gulhane Military Medical School in Turkey from 1992 1999. Dural closed primarily or with temporalis fascia, pericranium, cadaver grafts. Central infections mostly observed cases cerebrospinal fluid (CSF)...
A 21-year-old male patient presented with a rare cerebellopontine angle medulloblastoma manifesting as cerebellar and long tract involvement signs symptoms. The clinical radiological characteristics of the lesion were similar to extraaxial lesions angle. histological diagnosis was medulloblastoma. Surgery achieved partial removal followed by radiotherapy chemotherapy. remained well after 18 months. Medulloblastoma is relatively entity may occur dural-based mass.
Gunshot wounds to the head are usually fatal injuries, despite all medical and surgical interventions. Ventricular injury is a poor prognostic factor-for penetrating cranial gunshot wounds. Intraventricular hemorrhage ventricular lacerations main components of such injuries. The incidence, management, outcomes cases secondary that were treated during 9-year period at Gülhane Military Medical Academy examined. study group consisted 67 consecutive patients who admitted Department Neurosurgery...
Although surgery is the most effective means of eliminating or reducing seizures in cases medically refractory epilepsy, expected unexpected surgical complications must also be kept mind order not to decrease patients' quality life. The aim this present study was assess temporal lobe epilepsy and their effects on disease course patients with intractable arising from temporo-mesial structures.The records 58 who underwent lobectomy and/or selective amygdalahippocampectomy at Gülhane Military...
Spinal anesthesia is an appropriate technique for lumbar spine surgeries of two to three hours duration. The aim this study document our experience on spinal administered the patients with degenerative spine.A total 497 underwent stabilization surgery disorders in 8-year period. was performed at L3-L4 or L4-L5 level and subarachnoid block achieved 15 mg 0.5% plain bupivacaine 2 μg fentanyl 0.2 epinephrine. There no failure anesthesia. were closely monitored complications associated SA...
We present a case of patient with multiple cerebral hydatidosis. could not find any other origin In the light radiodiagnostic and biochemical findings, we assessed this as primary The cysts were delivered completely. Two months after operation, patient's neurological examination control MRI normal.
✓The most common vascular anomaly associated with a developmental venous (DVA) is cavernous malformation. A cerebral DVA rare malformation of the brain when it varix. The authors report on 13-year-old girl who presented 2 brief episodes nonresponsiveness that mimicked absence seizures. computed tomography scans, magnetic resonance images, and angiograms showed left temporal in combination sylvian fissure To maintain normal parenchymal drainage, no surgical intervention was performed....
Intracranial hydatid cysts, although still rare, are being seen with increasing frequency. We report 12 cases of intracerebral cysts diagnosed the use computed tomography. also review methods recently available for diagnosis and therapy this disease. Excellent therapeutic results can be achieved through surgical removal cyst; however, it is important to avoid rupturing cyst.
