Adult Diffuse Astrocytoma in the Medulla Oblongata: Molecular Biological Analyses Including H3F3A Mutation of Histone H3.3
Unlike in children, brain stem gliomas in adult are rare and still poorly understood. In addition, most adult brain stem gliomas result predominantly in the pons and are less often found in the medulla oblongata. Here, we report a case of an adult glioma in the medulla oblongata and its molecular biological features. A 46-year-old male presented with gait disturbance, paresthesia, and dysphagia...
متن کاملTubercle of Medulla Oblongata
F. W., a boy of 8 years of age; there was some evidence of phthisis in the family history.

After a short time he began to vomit constantly every morning, the vomit consisting of altered food. He attended for a few. weeks as an out-patient, and then was admitted into the Hospital,...
متن کاملRole of the medulla oblongata in hypertension.
Brain pathways controlling arterial pressure are distributed throughout the neuraxis and are organized in topographically selective networks. In this brief review, we will focus on the medulla oblongata. The nucleus tractus solitarius (NTS) is the primary site of cardiorespiratory reflex integration. It is well accepted that lesions or other perturbations in the NTS can result in elevations of ...
متن کاملBacterial abscess of the medulla oblongata.
Isolated brainstem abscess, specifically, medullary abscess, is rare and often fatal. Diagnosis requires appropriate imaging and a high degree of clinical suspicion. Good outcomes are possible. A 69-year-old woman presented with an isolated medulla oblongata abscess that manifested as a syndrome of rapidly progressive multiple cranial nerve palsies and decreased level of consciousness. Microneu...
متن کاملRespiratory chemosensitivity in the medulla oblongata.
Respiratory regulation is considered as a feedback mechanism serving the homeostasis of the hydrogen ion concentration in brain extracellular fluid during rest as well as during exercise. Only in hypoxia the working range of the regulator is shifted in such a way that a sufficient O2 partial pressure is maintained at the cost of hydrogen ion concentration. The main sensing element of the regula...
