TUBEROSE CEREBRAL SCLEROSIS WITH INTRAOCULAR TUMORS

Two Cases of Tuberose Sclerosis

Intraocular tumors in animals. II. Primary nonpigmented intraocular tumors.

The present authors (14) have recently discussed intraocular tumors in animals, in a report restricted to primary pigmented neoplasms and based on fifteen such cases in dogs. This was the first comprehensive study of spontaneous intraocular tumors in animals, but because of its restricted scope there remain for consideration other primary and various secondary intraoeular tumors. In the present...

Brain tumors with ipsilateral cerebral hemiatrophy.

Brain tumors with secondary ipsilateral cerebral hemiatrophy are so rare that only seven cases have been reported in the literature. Three new cases are presented and the clinical findings in all 10 cases are reviewed. The diagnostic value of computed tomography (CT) is emphasized. The authors conclude that nodular high-density lesions located deep in the cerebrum and showing slight contrast en...

Nerve-Cell Swelling of the Juvenile Amaurotic Family Idiocy Type: Associated with Tuberose Sclerosis in an Infant Aged Twelve Months.

This paper records the occurrence in the brain of an infant aged twelve months of tuberose sclerosis together with nerve cell changes of a type which, until recently, has been considered peculiar to the juvenile or Spielmeyer-Vogt variety of amaurotic idiocy. Pathological coincidences of this sort in the nervous system are rare and with the exception of Ostertag's (1925) description of infantil...
