Purpose Cotyledonoid dissecting leiomyoma is a leiomyoma variant exhibiting unusual growth patterns. We aimed to demonstrate this, as well as to point out another feature that has not been previously reported. Case Report A congested, multinodular myomectomy specimen was resected. Histologically, smooth muscle fascicles with marked vascularity and extensive hydropic degeneration were detected. ...

Dissecting aneurysm is the cause of about ona in a hundred of sudden deaths and about one in four hundred of all hospital deaths. Men are affected much more commonly than women in a proportion of between two and three to one, except in extreme old age when the sex difference is less, partly because there are more old women than old men. Dissecting aneurysm can occur at any age. The heaviest inc...

DISSECTING IMPLICIT LEADERSHIP THEORIES: A GENERALIZABILITYANALYSISby

AORTOGRAPHY by translumbar, retroIAJL grade femoral injection, and retrograde catheterization, are all now considered moderately safe and efficacious diagnostic procedures. It is our objective to describe a potential hazard in retrograde arterial catheterization for the diagnosis of dissecting aneurysm, that to our knowledge, has not previously been described. Two cases are presented in which t...

A 48-year-old man presented a subarachnoid hemorrhage caused by a rupture of a dissecting aneurysm at the proximal segment (A1 segment) of the right anterior cerebral artery (ACA). He also had an anomalous artery named infraoptic course ACA and an agenesis of the contralateral ACA A1 segment. Balloon occlusion test at the bifurcation of the right internal carotid artery demonstrated that the di...

INTRODUCTION Dissecting aneurysms of the cerebral arteries are uncommon vascular malformations. Neurosurgical treatment remains critical in the management of patients with such vascular pathologies. CASE PRESENTATION A 20-year-old Caucasian woman presented with a sudden onset of severe headache and loss of consciousness. Computed tomography revealed diffuse subarachnoid hemorrhage, while a co...

PURPOSE Most intracranial dissecting aneurysms involve the posterior circulation, and the intradural segment of the vertebral artery is affected in majority of these. The aim of this report is to summarize the results of endovascular treatment in patients with ruptured dissecting aneurysms of the non-vertebral posterior circulation. MATERIALS AND METHODS During the past six years, the medical...

PRACTICAL ANATOMY. By W. E. Le Gros Clark. Baltimore, The \XTilliams & Wilkins Company, 1949. 473 pp. $6.00. The second edition of this dissecting manual remains unaltered in scope. Revisions, additions, and the use of color have rendered its illustrations one of the main features of this new edition. The order of dissection is slightly different from that which is often adopted; however, the s...

AIM The prognosis of VBA aneurysms seems poor and surgical management of VBA dissecting aneurysms is challenging. We evaluated our endovascular experience in management of ruptured and unruptured VBA dissecting aneurysms. MATERIAL AND METHODS Eleven consecutive patients with eleven VBA aneurysms (3 ruptured and 8 unruptured) between 2008 and 2010 were retrospectively reviewed. RESULTS Immed...
