Morphological And Physiological Examination Of A Demyelinating And Remyelinating Lesion, Paul Anson Felts
Morphological And Physiological Examination Of A Demyelinating And Remyelinating Lesion, Paul Anson Felts
Theses and Dissertations in Biomedical Sciences
Multiple sclerosis causes demyelination of central nerve fibers, and it is this pathology which results in most of the symptoms of the disease. The repair of the fibers by remyelination has been advanced as a potential symptomatic therapy, but at present the conduction properties of remyelinated central fibers are not well understood. In this study the conduction properties of Schwannian or oligodendrocyte remyelinated central nerve fibers have been determined. In addition, the status of the blood-brain barrier has been examined in lesions characterized by Schwann cell remyelination. These lesions chronically lack astrocytes, a cell believed to be involved in the …
Cervicofacial Actinomycosis In Children, Michael E. Friduss, Dennis R. Maceri
Cervicofacial Actinomycosis In Children, Michael E. Friduss, Dennis R. Maceri
Henry Ford Hospital Medical Journal
Actinomycotic infections, once common in humans and cattle, are now rare causes of disease in man. This general group of organisms belongs taxonomically between the true bacteria and the fungi; however, the organisms behave clinically like true anaerobes. The organism, although phagocytized by the host cells, is not killed. Therefore, d is defined as a facultative intracellular parasite of the host. The protean manifestations of actinomycotic infections often mimic infectious processes, such as osteomyelitis or granulomatous disease, as well as neoplasia. It is therefore important for the surgeon to include actinomycosis in the differential diagnosis of cervicofacial masses in children …

Zollinger-Ellison Syndrome: Methods Of Diagnosis And Treatment, Ravi R. Sarin, Ajay K. Sangal, Timothy T. Schubert, Jan Rival
Henry Ford Hospital Medical Journal
Until two decades ago the Zollinger-Ellison syndrome (ZES) was difficult to diagnose and stage accurately. Total gastrectomy was often the ultimate treatment. Improvements in the measurement of serum gastrin and in radiographic imaging have greatly improved the precision of diagnosis and staging. Treatment with histamine-2 receptor antagonists and proton pump blockers have eliminated the need for gastrectomy, and current surgical intervention is directed at cure through removal of the localized gastrinoma. We reviewed the management of eight patients with this diagnosis seen at Henry Ford Hospital from 1983 to 1988. Time from first presentation to diagnosis varied from two months …

Denker Rhinotomy For Inverted Papilloma Of The Nose And Paranasal Sinuses, Samuel A. Mickelson, Richard D. Nichols
Denker Rhinotomy For Inverted Papilloma Of The Nose And Paranasal Sinuses, Samuel A. Mickelson, Richard D. Nichols
Henry Ford Hospital Medical Journal
Inverted papilloma of the nose and paranasal sinuses is an unusual benign neoplasm that has the propensity for local tissue destruction and an association with malignant degeneration. The tumor represents an inverted growth of epithelium rather than outward proliferation. It most commonly arises from the lateral nasal wall with growth into the nose and paranasal sinuses and only rarely originates from the septum. Presenting symptoms are usually unilateral nasal obstruction and clear rhinorrhea. Surgical excision is the recommended treatment though the aggressiveness ofthe approach has varied. Transnasal local excision has been associated with a high recurrence rate. Lateral rhinotomy with …
Management Of Chronic Staphylococcal Osteomyelitis Of The Temporal Bone: The Use Of Hyperbaric Oxygen, Vanessa G. Schweitzer
Management Of Chronic Staphylococcal Osteomyelitis Of The Temporal Bone: The Use Of Hyperbaric Oxygen, Vanessa G. Schweitzer
Henry Ford Hospital Medical Journal
Hyperbaric oxygen (HBO) is an effective adjunct in the management of selected otolaryngologic problems including radiation-induced necrosis of the temporal hone, malignant external otitis, mandibular osteoradionecrosis and refractory osteomyelitis, soft tissue head and neck necrotizing fasciitis, compromised skin flaps and grafts, acute air or gas embolism, and otologic barotrauma. We describe the management of a patient with insidious Staphylococcus aureus osteomyelitis of the temporal bone by the use of HBO preoperatively and postoperatively in conjunction with surgical debridement. The possible application of angiogenic agents and tetracycline hone-labeling in combination with HBO therapy in the management of refractory neurotologic disease is …
Entry Of The Hearing Impaired Into The Health Care System, Kathleen Yaremchuk, Jonathan Schmidt, Linda Dickson
Entry Of The Hearing Impaired Into The Health Care System, Kathleen Yaremchuk, Jonathan Schmidt, Linda Dickson
Henry Ford Hospital Medical Journal
The current system of referral of patients complaining of hearing loss usually requires a dual appointment with otolaryngology and audiology. Most of these patients have sensorineural hearing loss for which there is rarely surgical or medical treatment. This study tests the hypothesis that these patients would receive appropriate treatment and that health care dollars would be saved if an audiological assessment could identify those patients who require medical or surgical care. One hundred consecutive patients whose sole complaint was hearing loss were evaluated using audiograms and "hearing abilities questionnaires" by five audiologists using subjective and objective criteria to determine the …
Metastatic Carcinoma Of The Jaws: Report Of A Case, Jack L. Clark
Metastatic Carcinoma Of The Jaws: Report Of A Case, Jack L. Clark
Henry Ford Hospital Medical Journal
Primary malignant tumors of the mouth and jaws usually do not present a diagnostic challenge to oral surgeons or otolaryngologists. However, recognition of metastatic tumors in the mouth and jaws is much more difficult. A case is presented of metastatic carcinoma from the lung to the soft tissue of the oral cavity. Histopathology of the lesions in the lung and oral cavity as well as the chest x-ray and the Panorex x-ray are presented. The patient refused palliative treatment, became malnourished, and died. A review of the pertinent literature is also presented.

Management Of Voice Disorders, Alex F. Johnson, Barbara H. Jacobson, Michael S. Benninger
Henry Ford Hospital Medical Journal
Voice disorders are commonly seen in general medical practice. In some cases voice disorders represent the presenting symptom for serious underlying disease. It is important for clinicians from internal medicine, pediatrics, and family practice to be able to identify those factors in the history or observed vocal symptoms which suggest need for referral for comprehensive voice evaluation as well as to understand the distinct but complementary roles of the specific disciplines (otolaryngology and speech-language pathology) involved in diagnosis and treatment of patients with voice disorders.

The Bouveret Syndrome: An Unusual Cause Of Hematemesis, Alaa A. Salah-Eldin, Mostafa A. H. Ibrahim, Ravindra Alapati, Saleh Muslah, Timothy T. Schubert, Bernard M. Schuman
Henry Ford Hospital Medical Journal
Gallstones are usually silent. Less commonly, patients with cholelithiasis develop symptoms and/or complications; biliary fistula occurs in 3% to 5% of the cases. When a large stone is passed and occludes the duodenum, gastric outlet obstruction (the Bouveret syndrome) may result. In reported cases, the stones are usually larger than 2.5 cm. The usual presenting symptoms are those of bowel obstruction: abdominal pain, nausea, and vomiting. Less commonly, the patients experience melena and, rarely, hematemesis. We describe a patient who had the largest stone reported to cause hematemesis rather than bowel obstruction and to be diagnosed endoscopically. The 5 X …
Variability Of Quantitative Sensory Testing: Implications For Clinical Practice, Janice Redmond, Didier Cros, Bhagwan T. Shahani
Variability Of Quantitative Sensory Testing: Implications For Clinical Practice, Janice Redmond, Didier Cros, Bhagwan T. Shahani
Henry Ford Hospital Medical Journal
The conventional estimation of motor, sensory, and mixed nerve conduction velocities reflects activity in the fastest conducting, heavily myelinated nerve fibers that are only a small proportion of the total. Unmyelinated and thinly myelinated fibers are not evaluated by this technique and numerically represent the largest group of fibers in human cutaneous nerves. The availability of new quantitative techniques to study this aspect of sensory function is an important addition to standard electrodiagnosis. Patient understanding and cooperation is essential because subjective responses are evaluated. We evaluated a reference range for 20 healthy subjects as well as variability on repeated testing. …
Systemic Dissemination Of Pneumocystis Carinii In A Patient With Acquired Immunodeficiency Syndrome, Mahul B. Amin, Michael P. Abrash, Eugene Mezger, Gary F. Sekerak
Systemic Dissemination Of Pneumocystis Carinii In A Patient With Acquired Immunodeficiency Syndrome, Mahul B. Amin, Michael P. Abrash, Eugene Mezger, Gary F. Sekerak
Henry Ford Hospital Medical Journal
Pneumocystis carinii is usually considered a respiratory tract pathogen; however, there are reported cases of limited and generalized dissemination of the organism from the lungs of immunocompromised patients. We present the autopsy findings of a 29-year-old male with acquired immunodeficiency syndrome (AIDS) and recurrent Pneumocystis carinii pneumonia who developed abnormal liver function tests. The patient had received aerosolized pentamidine because of toxic reactions to other modes of therapy. The postmortem examination revealed Pneumocystis in the lungs, liver, spleen, kidney, myocardium, thymus, pancreas, thyroid gland, bilateral parathyroid and adrenal glands, gastrointestinal mucosa, perihilar and mesenteric lymph nodes, and bone marrow. A …

Practical Value Of Echo Doppler Evaluation Of Aortic And Mitral Stenosis: A Comparative Study With Cardiac Catheterization, Jihad Bitar, Lori Douthat, Mohsin Alam, Howard S. Rosman, Mark Lebeis, Sidney Goldstein, Fareed Khaja
Henry Ford Hospital Medical Journal
This retrospective analysis compares data derived by echocardiography and cardiac catheterization in the evaluation of aortic and mitral valve stenosis. Sixty-seven patients, aged 69 ± 12 years, underwent 76 catheterization procedures. In all studies the Doppler recording was technically adequate. In 64 studies of patients with aortic stenosis, correlation was good between the gradient obtained at catheterization (peak 51 ± 28 mm Hg, mean 48 ± 24 mm Hg) and the Doppler gradient (peak 73 ± 29 mm Hg, mean 41 ±17 mm Hg) (R = 0.78 peak, 0.77 mean). In 15 studies the aortic valve area, 0.8 ± 0.2 …

Functional Endoscopic Sinus Surgery: Morbidity And Early Results, Michael S. Benninger, Samuel A. Mickelson, Kathleen Yaremchuk
Functional Endoscopic Sinus Surgery: Morbidity And Early Results, Michael S. Benninger, Samuel A. Mickelson, Kathleen Yaremchuk
Henry Ford Hospital Medical Journal
Functional endoscopic sinus surgery is a new alternative to conventional sinus surgery as a means of managing recalcitrant sinus disease. This approach to sinus pathology focuses on the importance of the functional ostiomeatal complex and anterior ethmoid sinuses in the pathogenesis of sinus disease. In an effort lo assess the morbidity and initial results of this procedure, 85 cases were reviewed. A total of 82% of the patients had bilateral maxillary and ethmoid sinusitis, and 45% had pansinusitis, frequently associated with allergic rhinitis (56%) and nasal polyps (58%). A total of 82% of the patients were operated on as outpatients …
Sensorineural Hearing Loss And The Diagnosis Of Acoustic Neuroma, Edwin M. Monsell, Jack P. Rock
Sensorineural Hearing Loss And The Diagnosis Of Acoustic Neuroma, Edwin M. Monsell, Jack P. Rock
Henry Ford Hospital Medical Journal
Sensorineural hearing loss and tinnitus are gradually receiving more attention in medicine due to advances in diagnosis and treatment. Acoustic neuromas can now be detected when they are small, and early microsurgical removal results in the lowest overall morbidity. We examine the historical development of acoustic neuroma management, discuss current diagnosis and treatment, and present illustrative cases from our recent experience. Complaints of tinnitus and hearing loss, especially when unilateral, require appropriate medical evaluation.
Hemangiomas Of The Nasal Septum And Paranasal Sinuses, Lisa Marie Sheppard, Samuel A. Mickelson
Hemangiomas Of The Nasal Septum And Paranasal Sinuses, Lisa Marie Sheppard, Samuel A. Mickelson
Henry Ford Hospital Medical Journal
Hemangiomas of the nasal septum and paranasal sinuses are rare; only 62 cases of septal hemangiomas and 32 cases of maxillary sinus/maxilla hemangiomas have been reported in the English literature. Hemangiomas should be considered in the differential diagnosis of any nasal mass lesion because biopsy may result in profuse bleeding and even death. We report the clinical presentation, differential diagnosis, etiology, and histologic appearance of paranasal sinus hemangiomas occurring in four of our patients.
Abnormal Coagulation Profiles In Tonsillectomy And Adenoidectomy Patients, Jonathan L. Schmidt, Kathleen L. Yaremchuk, Samuel A. Mickelson
Abnormal Coagulation Profiles In Tonsillectomy And Adenoidectomy Patients, Jonathan L. Schmidt, Kathleen L. Yaremchuk, Samuel A. Mickelson
Henry Ford Hospital Medical Journal
Preoperative coagulation profile screening is routinely performed in otolaryngology before tonsillectomy and adenoidectomy surgery in the United States. Recently there has been controversy as to whether this routine testing is necessary. To evaluate the need for this testing, we reviewed a series of patients with particular attention to abnormal coagulation profiles. Of 91 consecutive patients undergoing tonsillectomy, adenoidectomy, or both, four had abnormal preoperative coagulation profiles. Of these patients, one had von Willebrand disease, one had hypofibrinoginemia, and two had a transient acquired lupus-like anticoagulant. The latter condition, which causes a temporary prolongation of the activated partial thromboplastin time, is …

Infant Hearing Screening 1984 To 1989: The Henry Ford Hospital Experience, Gary P. Jacobson, Mary Jo Burtka, Jeanne A. Wharton, Craig W. Newman, Neil Shepherd, Robert G. Turner
Henry Ford Hospital Medical Journal
From 1984 to 1989 the Infant Hearing Screening (IHS) program at Henry Ford Hospital identified 1,300 infants as being "at risk" for hearing loss. The prevalence of significant sensorineural hearing loss in this sample was 1.4%. Additionally, 80 infants who passed the IHS program and reached 3 years of age were found to have normal hearing sensitivity by conventional audiometric techniques (ie, no false-negative predictions). There were three false-positive predictions. It was discovered that infants of low birthweight (ie, < 1,500 g) were three times more likely to fail IHS than those whose weight exceeded 1,500 g. A higher return rate was found for infants failing an initial hearing screening conducted in the neonatal intensive care unit in comparison to those screened as outpatients one week postdischarge. The sensitivity and specificity of behavioral observation audiometry were 43% and 92%, respectively, when brainstem auditory-evoked potentials was used as the criterion validity measure.

Cocaine-Induced Hepatonephrotoxicity: A Case Report, Guillermo P. Gubbins, Rhett M. Schiffman, Ravindra S. Alapati, Surinder K. Batra
Henry Ford Hospital Medical Journal
Hepatotoxicity due to cocaine has been well described in animal models. There are few reports on cocaine-induced hepatic injury in humans; however, its link to rhabdomyolysis and renal failure is better known. We report a case of reversible acute hepatonephrotoxicity associated with recreational cocaine use. The proposed mechanisms responsible for its hepatic and renal toxicity are reviewed.
