Cryptoccal Granuloma Of The Choroid Plexus In The Temporal Horn, Yohsuke Fukami

Henry Ford Hospital Medical Journal

A man developed sudden symptoms of increased intracranial pressure following a prolonged course of cryptoccal meningitis which appeared to be responding to treatment. A choroid plexus granuloma was found in the dilated and blocked lateral ventricle. The poor prognosis of this type of complication of the cryptococcal meningitis is discussed.

The Water-Soluble Contrast Medium Lumbar Myelogram And Its Surgical Correlations, Henri C. Labasse

Henry Ford Hospital Medical Journal

The water-soluble contrast medium lumbar myelogram is a very helpful tool in the diagnosis of herniated nucleus pulposus (EfNP) in patients who suffer unilateral root pain of mechanical course. One can often make the differential diagnosis between a ruptured disc and a protruding disc. Unless the disc fragment lies way out in the intervertebral foramen, the myelogram will show some kind of anomaly. Therefore, fewer exploratory operations will be performed on patients having normal myelograms. Metrisamide, a newcomer among the water-soluble contrast media, is nontoxic for the spinal cord. Therefore, if the usual myelogram is normal and one fears a …

Traumatic Third Ventricular Hematoma, E. Malcolm Field

Henry Ford Hospital Medical Journal

The author postulates a rare syndrome which should be considered when craniocerebral trauma is followed by a lucid interval and then rapid deterioration of midbrain function. The diagnosis was made on the basis of an irregular mass in the floor of the third ventricle and bloody ventricular fluid. Today's availability of CAT scanning would provide a quicker and more certain diagnosis than was possible for the two cases reported, the author states.

Subarachnoid And Intracerebral Hemorrhage Due To The Rupture Of An Arteriovenous Malformation And Aneurysm In The Same Patient. Report Of Two Cases, F. Gomez-Mendez

Henry Ford Hospital Medical Journal

Two cases are reported of coexistent intracranial aneurysm and arteriovenous malformation. Both lesions ruptured within one week in one patient and within three months in the other. The rarity of such occurrences is discussed and the surgical operative procedures used are described. One patient is doing well except for some weakness of the right leg and mild dysphasia. The second patient died three months postoperatively, probably because of rupture of the aneurysm. No autopsy was obtained.

The Effect Of Endodontic Therapy On The Incidence Of Radiation Caries In Dogs, James A. Abbott

Loma Linda University Electronic Theses, Dissertations & Projects

Endodontic therapy was evaluated as a possible control or prevention modality of radiation type dental caries in dogs. Two adult male dogs with permanent dentitions had endodontic therapy performed on alternating teeth in each jaw. The nontreated teeth served as controls.

The dogs were irradiated with 7000 rad Cobalt-60 radiation fractionated over an eight week period. The dogs were killed at 60 and 182 days post-irradiation. The teeth were removed from the jaws and immersed in methylene blue dye, sectioned, and the dye penetration pattern photographed. Diffusion of the dye into the tooth structure was quantified and statistically analyzed.

Women In Menopause: A Study Of Gynecologist's Perceptions, Zadell Cogan, Sharon Kennedy

Dissertations and Theses

The purpose of this study was to explore the needs of women experiencing menopause. Since women at this time experience physical, social and emotional changes, they may have a special need for services. Doctors were selected as the population for study because they treat so many women at this age and because they are powerful transmitters of our culture. This exploratory study was designed to provide descriptive information about the doctors' perceptions.

Results are reported from interviews with seventeen gynecologists from the Portland metropolitan area in Oregon. Attempts were made to interview all female gynecologists in the area. Male gynecologists …

Rationale And Results Of Anatomic Repair Of Esophageal Hiatus Hernia, Conrad R. Lam

Henry Ford Hospital Medical Journal

A logical method of repair of esophageal hiatus hernia based on anatomic principles was proposed nearly 25 years ago by the late Phillip Allison. There was general agreement that his operation had advantages, but because of a disappointing number of recurrences and problems with reflux, more complicated operations were devised. Some of these involved plication of the stomach around the lower esophagus (Nissen, Belsey). In a series of 562 operations for hiatus hernia at the Henry Ford Hospital, there has been no significant deviation from the Allison technic. Complicating lower esophageal rings (Schatzki) have been excised. There has been no …
