متن کاملRegional siderosis: a new challenge for iron chelation therapy
The traditional role of iron chelation therapy has been to reduce body iron burden via chelation of excess metal from organs and fluids and its excretion via biliary-fecal and/or urinary routes. In their present use for hemosiderosis, chelation regimens might not be suitable for treating disorders of iron maldistribution, as those are characterized by toxic islands of siderosis appearing in a b...
متن کاملUpdate on a patient with superficial siderosis on deferiprone.
Deferiprone Superficial siderosis (SS) is a neurodegenerative condition caused by hemosiderin deposition on the surface of the brain, cranial nerves, and spinal cord. SS is an exceptionally rare condition characterized by a triad of hearing loss, ataxia, and myelopathy. The most common etiologies that lead to SS are trauma, previous surgical procedures, dural tears, and tumors of the central ne...
متن کاملSuperficial siderosis.
Case 1 An elderly patient presented with insidious onset of sensorineural hearing loss. The past history was unremarkable except for insidious onset of weakness of left lower limb. Physical examination revealed left hemiparesis with upgoing left plantar. Magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) of brain revealed a large flow void in the interpeduncular cistern suggestive of aneurysm arising from the to...
متن کاملSuperficial cortical siderosis.
Cerebrovascular deposition of amyloid (cerebral amyloid angiopathy CAA) is most commonly recognized as a cause of spontaneous lobar intracerebral hemorrhage. On the basis of the noninvasive new MR imaging we would propose superficial cortical hemosiderosis and subarachnoid hemosiderosis as potentially useful new criteria to facilitate the diagnosis of CAA.
