pontine tumors
eight patients with gross lesions of the pons as demonstrated by air contrast study as well as cranial nerve, long tract and cerebellar syrnphomatology, were treated with 240 kilovolt x-ray therapy, .receiving 2,750 to 5,000 r. initial dose with palliamon for most of them, another 2,750 to 5,000 r. intial does palliation for most of them. another child received only 600 r. and was not helped. ,...
متن کاملPontine neurocytoma.
A case of neurocytoma arising in the rostral pontine region of an 18 year old man is reported. The patient developed a right trochlear nerve palsy and was shown to have a well circumscribed, contrast enhancing mass on magnetic resonance imaging. The tumour was characterised histologically by a uniform population of medium sized round nuclei and slightly eosinophilic cytoplasm or occasional peri...
متن کاملA Step-Wise Multidisciplinary Rehabilitation Approach of Central Pontine and Extra Pontine Myelinosis in Locked-In Syndrome: A Case Report
Central Pontine Myelinosis (CPM) and Extra Pontine Myelinosis (EPM) are debilitating conditions, resulting from the rapid correction of hyponatremia. The outcome and prognosis of this medical condition are variable; mainly involving functional decline from neuro-musculoskeletal upset. An intensive, multidisciplinary rehabilitation has played an essential role in facilitating and hasten recovery...
متن کاملCentral pontine myelinolysis.
Central pontine myelinolysis (CPM), a neurologic disorder caused most frequently by rapid correction of hyponatremia, is characterized by demyelination that affects the central portion of the base of the pons. There are no inflammatory changes, and blood vessels are normal. Clinical features usually reflect damage to the descending motor tracts and include spastic tetraparesis, pseudobulbar par...
متن کاملTargeting hyaluronan interactions in spinal cord astrocytomas and diffuse pontine gliomas.
Although significant advances have been made in treating malignant pediatric central nervous system tumors such as medulloblastoma, no effective therapy exists for diffuse pontine glioma or intramedullary spinal astrocytoma. Biology of these 2 tumors is poorly understood, in part because diffuse pontine gliomas are not treated surgically, and tumor specimens from intramedullary spinal astrocyto...
