Pseudotumor.

The term "pseuduotumor" is currently used to mean idiopathic orbital inflammation. CT can be of help in differentiating idiopathic orbital inflammation from thyroid ophthalmopathy and lymphoid tumors. The CT findings are reviewed along with important clinical and pathologic aspects.

A case of childhood multiple sclerosis with peripheral neuropathy.

A twelve-year-old girl with multiple sclerosis and peripheral neuropathy is reported. When nine years old, she was diagnosed as having Devic disease (optic atrophy and transverse myelitis). During the three years after onset of her illness, she suffered from three relapses and remissions of her multiple sclerosis. On the third occasion, neurological examination revealed signs of cerebellar dysfunction including ataxic gait, nystagmus and dysmetria, and absence of all tendon reflexes with muscle weakness especially on the left side. Markedly slowed conduction velocity in her ulnar nerve especia

Cyanide and its relationship to nervous suffering. Physiopathological aspects of intoxication.

On the basis of personal results in man and laboratory animal, we examined some aspects of acute and chronic cyanide intoxication: physiopathological aspects, hydroxocobalamin's therapeutic action in treating acute intoxications and neurotoxic sufferings due to cyanide, and hydroxocobalamin's biological action in decreasing the level of free cyanide appearing in blood and urine, a few days after sciatic nerve clamping in rabbits.

Orbital apex syndrome secondary to herpes zoster ophthalmicus.

Two women, one with Hodgkin's disease and the other with no malignancy, developed herpes zoster with optic neuropathy and total ophthalmoplegia. Both patients developed an associated mild meningoencephalitis with a predominantly lymphocytic spinal fluid reaction that cleared spontaneously. The patient with Hodgkin's disease suffered a protracted course of the disease and developed a secondary bacterial endophthalmitis that necessitated an envisceration of the left eye. The patient without evidence of immunologic deficit recovered quickly with administration of corticosteroids.

Unusual ocular presentation of acute toxoplasmosis.

Four patients with toxoplasmosis are reported with unusual presenting ocular lesions. One patient had an active lesion that appeared to involve the optic nerve as well as focal toxoplasmosis chorioretinitis at the macula. A second patient had a pale optic nerve in association with the classical chorioretinal scars of toxoplasmosis. The third patient had toxoplasmosis chorioretinitis of the macula with subretinal neovascularisation. The fourth patient had a branch artery occlusion complicating acute retinitis.

Intracranial ophthalmic artery aneurysm.

A 45-year old black man with a carotid-ophthalmic artery aneurysm developed sudden loss of vision in his left eye, a mid-dilated pupil, and pain on movement of the left eye. A temporal island of vision was present in the left eye and the right visual field was normal. There were no other neurologic abnormalities. The aneurysm spontaneously ruptured, resulting in the death of the patient.

Peripheral neuropathy with ethambutol.

Three cases are described in which peripheral neuropathy occurred while the patients were taking ethambutol. The neuropathy regressed when the drug was stopped.

Comparing the risk of ocular inflammation secondary to sarcoidosis between non-Hispanic White population and Black/African American population.

OBJECTIVE: To assess the risk of developing ocular inflammation in the setting of sarcoidosis among non-Hispanic White (NHW) and Black/African American populations (BAA). DESIGN: Retrospective, population-based cohort study PARTICIPANTS: Participants were aged ≥18 years, diagnosed with sarcoidosis in the last 10 years, and divided into 2 cohorts of NHW and BAA descent. Propensity score matching was used to match for age and sex. METHODS: Using the TriNetX database, we determined the frequency of anterior uveitis, chorioretinal inflammation (CRI), optic neuritis (ON), and other disorders of t…

Изучение вопроса о том, имеет ли распространение информации во времени существенное значение для повторного выявления множественных склерозов.

Диагноз множественных склерозов (MS) требует как распространения в космосе (DIS), так и во времени (DIT); олиголональные полосы (OCB) в CSF могут заменить DIT на MRI. Мы изучили вопрос о том, необходим ли DIT (или положительный CSF) для диагностики MS у пациентов, отвечающих большому числу критериев СОП. Мы вероятно наняли пациентов с первым демиелинизирующим событием, которое оценивалось с помощью MRI мозга и спинного мозга. 3 месяцев начала. За пациентами следили клинически и с МРТ. Мы ретроспективно применяли критерии СОП, требующие нанесения повреждений ≥2/4, ≥3/4, или 4/4 регионов, обычно

BACKGROUND AND OBJECTIVES: The diagnosis of multiple sclerosis (MS) requires evidence of both dissemination in space (DIS) and time (DIT); o … S, streamlining the diagnostic process. Limitations include an over-representation of patients with optic neuritis at onset, a low rate of CSF examination, and lack of optical coherence tomography data.
