Vascular Reconstructions for Intracranial Lesions

A Rare Association between Meningioma and Two Intracranial Vascular Lesions: Case Report and Review of Literature

Background & Importance: Our study was performed based on the first case, reported in English, of a patient with three contemporary lesions, an extra-axial malformation and two vascular ones. Case Presentation: A 62-year-old man referred to our clinic due to right hand tremor associated to a slowing of idea-forming function and movements. The neuroradiological evidence showed a right fronto-te...

Intracranial lesions mimicking neoplasms.

CONTEXT A broad spectrum of nonneoplastic conditions can mimic a brain tumor, both clinically and radiologically. In this review we consider these, taking into consideration the following etiologic categories: infection, demyelination, vascular diseases, noninfectious inflammatory disorders, and iatrogenic conditions. We give an overview of such diseases, which represent a potential pitfall for...

Quantitative Analysis and Computer Aided Simulation of Minimally Invasive Approaches for Intracranial Vascular Lesions

Non-invasive screening for surgical intracranial lesions.

The value and reliability of the combined results of skull radiographs, electroencephalography, echoencephalography, isotope angiography, and brain scanning in 147 patients suspected of having an intracranial space occupying lesions are analysed. The overall accuracy of the technique was 79%. No false negatives were found. The advantages of adopting the system proposed by the authors in everyda...
