Meningiomas are common spinal tumor and mostly located at intradura. Recurrence rate after surgery for extradural meningioma was higher than intradural meningioma. A patient with intra and extradural spinal meningioma was treated and discussed its features and clinical management. A 41-year-old woman noted numbness of bilateral legs, gait disturbance, and mild bladder disturbance for over the t...

The incidence of subdural hematoma is approximately 13.1/100.000 per year. Subdural hematoma due to skull and dura mater metastases is rare. In this study, a 71-year-old patient with prostate adenocarcinoma who presented with chronic subdural hematoma due to skull bone and dura mater metastasis is presented.

STUDY DESIGN Intraparenchymal pressure (IPP) measurements in an in vitro cadaveric model of CNS edema. OBJECTIVE To assess the contribution of pia mater to IPP and the effect of piotomy. SUMMARY OF BACKGROUND DATA Multicenter randomized control trials have shown that decompression with durotomy/duroplasty significantly decreases intracranial pressure (ICP). There is a paucity of evidence re...

this experiment was conducted for estimating the effect of row spacing and plant density on soil moisture change, wheat yield and water use efficiency in rainfed condition, using a three replicated randomized complete block design with factorial arrangement at gorgan university of agricultural sciences and natural resources farm in anbare-ololum region in 2008-2009. the treatments that used wer...

The present study consisted of an applied test in meat system to assess the effectiveness of three bio agents bacteriocinproducing strains: Lm24: Lactobacillus sakei, Lm14and Lm25: Pediococcus spp. Two tests were carried out: The ex situ test was intended for three batches added with crude bacteriocin solutions at 12.48 AU/ml for Lm25 and 8.4 AU/ml for Lm14 and Lm24. However, the in situ one co...

A 67-year-old woman sensed a slowly growing, painless hard mass in the left parietal region. Cranial computed tomography showed focal bony erosion and homogeneous sclerotic change at the affected site. Magnetic resonance (MR) imaging revealed an enhanced subcutaneous mass and irregularly thickened dura mater. Intraoperatively, the subcutaneous tumor was found to be strongly adhered to the tempo...

BACKGROUND CONTEXT In recent literature, a soft-tissue communication between the rectus capitis posterior major (RCPma) muscle and the cervical dura mater has been identified. To the best of our knowledge, this communication has yet to be validated from a histological perspective nor has it been examined for neural tissue. PURPOSE The purpose of this study was to examine the composition and t...
