Advances In The Treatment Of Patients With Benign Brain Tumors, Harold F. Young Jan 1974

Advances In The Treatment Of Patients With Benign Brain Tumors, Harold F. Young

MCV/Q, Medical College of Virginia Quarterly

Reliable ICP measurement allows an exact quantitation and management of intracranial pressure. This precise assessment of ICP is a valuable adjunct in the management of anesthesia for brain tumor patients. The proper combination of ICP and anesthesia management enables the surgeon to use the operating microscope to approach previously inaccessible areas of the brain and to perform meticulous surgery with a better prognosis for the brain tumor patient.

Advances In Neuroradiology, Frederick S. Vines, Charles Bonstelle Jan 1974

Advances In Neuroradiology, Frederick S. Vines, Charles Bonstelle

MCV/Q, Medical College of Virginia Quarterly

The development of two new radiological techniques has significantly enhanced the performance of neuroradiological diagnostic procedures. The first of these was installed as the prototype unit at the Medical College of Virginia in November of 1972 and has marked advantages for the performance of encephalography, angiography, and air myelography. The present communication will relate the experiences of the author during the initial 15 months of clinical evaluation. The second technique is an entirely new concept of obtaining further information from the data provided by the penetration of x-ray photons. Each of these units will be discussed briefly with an outline …

Cerebral Blood Flow Studies In Stroke, John Stirling Meyer Jan 1974

Cerebral Blood Flow Studies In Stroke, John Stirling Meyer

MCV/Q, Medical College of Virginia Quarterly

This consideration of the relationship of neuro-transmitters not only to cerebral infarction but also to subarachnoid hemorrhage is, to my mind, the most promising area of investigation over the next decade. There is also a quantity of evidence that neurotransmitters play a large part in spasm following subarachnoid hemorrhage and in the disturbance of neurological function in that situation. Following subarachnoid hemorrhage, some remediable medical problems arise. Apart from clipping of the aneurysm, which the neurosurgeons are able to do, there is the problem of communicating hydrocephalus, which is extremely common in about 40% of patients. It can be discerned …

Genetic-Metabolic News

MCV/Q, Medical College of Virginia Quarterly

One of the primary aims of the genetic counselor is the reduction in the number of children born with either lethal disorders or severe CNS dysfunction (eg. Mongolism and midline neural defects). Generally, this goal is accomplished in one of four major ways.

Surgery In Rheumatoid Arthritis: General Indications And Philosophic Considerations, R. S. Bryan Jan 1974

Surgery In Rheumatoid Arthritis: General Indications And Philosophic Considerations, R. S. Bryan

MCV/Q, Medical College of Virginia Quarterly

In summary, orthopedic surgery has much to offer the rheumatoid patient, particularly if the proper patient is chosen at the proper time. The advent of the total joint replacements, now in its infancy, gives renewed hope for the salvage of many derelicts and for the prevention of the severe disabilities and deformities which were all too frequent in the past.

Advances In The Management And Surgical Treatment Of Intracranial Aneurysms, Thoralf M. Sundt Jr. Jan 1974

Advances In The Management And Surgical Treatment Of Intracranial Aneurysms, Thoralf M. Sundt Jr.

MCV/Q, Medical College of Virginia Quarterly

Patients who have sustained a spontaneous subarachnoid hemorrhage are victims of a very serious illness. Not only are they subject at all times to the potentially catastrophic results of a recurrent bleed, but they are faced with the manifestations of the irritative effects of blood in the subarachnoid space where the blood may function as a poison to the vessel wall. These acutely ill individuals may suffer a composite of secondary effects from a bleed which may include a communicating hydrocephalus, cerebral edema (ischemic or chemically induced), sterile meningitis, inappropriate ADH syndrome (osmotic effects of blood in the cerebrospinal fluid), …

Advances In The Management Fo Patients With Malignant Brain Tumors, Charles B. Wilson

MCV/Q, Medical College of Virginia Quarterly

In describing what is new in the management of malignant brain tumors, I shall confine myself largely to chemotherapy and shall outline what we think is important based on our own experience, what we have achieved with single and multiple agents, and where we are going. We have just reviewed our five-year experience and find that chemotherapy, perhaps, is the only thing that is new.

Still's Disease In Adults, William M. Edwards, Stephen R. Koller, Michael J. Miller Jan 1974

Still's Disease In Adults, William M. Edwards, Stephen R. Koller, Michael J. Miller

MCV/Q, Medical College of Virginia Quarterly

In 1897, Dr. George F. Still described 22 children with a form of chronic joint disease which differed from rheumatic fever. Twelve of these children had a syndrome characterized by glandular and splenic enlargement which, with a characteristic fever pattern, rash, and arthritis, has become known as Still's disease. Subsequent investigators have described patients over age 16 presenting with similar signs and symptoms suggesting that this syndrome is not specific for children. We recently studied a patient in whom the diagnosis of adult onset Still's disease was made.

Clinical Advances In The Evaluation Of Deep Coma, Cary Suter Jan 1974

Clinical Advances In The Evaluation Of Deep Coma, Cary Suter

MCV/Q, Medical College of Virginia Quarterly

Today, 1974, in large medical centers, evaluation of the patient in coma is almost a daily necessity, and the need to evaluate the patient in deep coma arises once or twice every week. Even in smaller hospitals the problem is not uncommon. This has come about because many laymen and most medical personnel are now well trained in methods of cardiorespiratory resuscitation. Persons are not allowed to die easily and once resuscitated, are moved to intensive care units where life is maintained. Fortunately, if they do not die of their underlying disease, such as trauma or myocardial infarction, many patients …

Clinical Advances In The Management Of Patients With Sever Head Injury, Thomas W. Langfitt

MCV/Q, Medical College of Virginia Quarterly

Some of the physiological properties of the cerebral circulation, intracranial pressure and brain metabolism, as well as some of the pathophysiological alterations that we see with various types of brain injuries have been discussed in this series. We are going to see how we can apply some of this information clinically.

Neuro-Ophthalmology In Severe Head Injury, John W. Harbison Jan 1974

Neuro-Ophthalmology In Severe Head Injury, John W. Harbison

MCV/Q, Medical College of Virginia Quarterly

If asked what the significance of neuro-ophthalmology is in the evaluation of severe head injury, many medical and surgical practitioners of neurology would promptly reply that it consists of monitoring pupillary reactivity in anticipation of the uncal herniation syndrome. A discussion of two broad premises of a factual nature, however, should easily convince these same practitioners that the neuro-ophthalmic evaluation of patients with severe head injuries offers far more than the Hutchinson pupil.
