We reviewed the serial CT studies obtained between 1974 and 1986 of 31 patients with malignant glioma who survived for 2 to 11 years after surgical removal of their tumors. In all cases surgery was followed by radiation therapy to the head (6000 rad) and chemotherapy. Patients were divided into two age groups: those under age 40 (n = 13) and those over age 40 (n = 18). By 2 years all patients i...

MR changes of cerebral ischemia have been shown to occur as early as 1-2 hr after vessel occlusion in experimental models of stroke. However, the MR findings in the early stages of ischemic stroke in the clinical population have not been well established. We studied 41 lesions in 39 patients in whom MR was performed within the first 24 hr after onset of ischemic symptoms. Twenty-five lesions we...

results of all 93 assessed children (52 male, 41 female) with mean age 6.45 y/o, 18 cases (19.4%) had abnormal renal parenchymal echogenicity (equal or more than liver).the final diagnosis of the cause of abdominal pain in 43 cases (46.2%) was acute appendicitis, in 8 cases (8.6%) was mesenteric adenitis, in 4 cases (4.3%) was gastroenteritis and in 2 cases (2.2%) was invagination. conclusions ...

Introduction: Controlling parenchymal hemorrhage, especially in liver, is still one of the challenges surgeons face with when they try to save the patients’ lives despite improvements in surgical procedures. There is a research contest between the researchers in this field to introduce more effective methods. This study aimed to compare the hemostatic effect of ferric sulfate and ferric chlo...
