PRESENTAZIONE DI UN CASO DI MENINGOCELE SACRALE ANTERIORE: CARATTERISTICHE NEURORADIOLOGICHE E DIAGNOSI DIFFERENZIALE
2013
SCOPO DEL LAVORO: Lo scopo di questo lavoro è documentare un caso di meningocele sacrale anteriore (Anterior Sacral Meningocele, ASM) rara forma di disrafismo spinale, diagnosticato in una giovane di 13 anni con riscontro ecografico di formazione cistica di verosimile pertinenza annessiale dopo visita Specialistica Ginecologica. La paziente si presenta con una clinica caratterizzata da: dolore pelvico, costipazione e cistiti ricorrenti. Sarà inoltre fatto un breve excursus sulle possibili diagnosi differenziali con altre masse pelviche a sviluppo presacrale. MATERIALI E METODI: A seguito di consulenza ginecologica, la paziente è stata sottoposta ad una ecografia transaddominale, che ha e…
Leukodiapedesis and leukocyte migration in the leptomeninges and in the subarachnoid space.
1981
Pleocytosis in cerebrospinal fluid and infiltration of the leptomeningeal tissue have been studied after injection of ferritin into the subarachnoid space (SAS) of cats. The most important source of granulocytes in the leptomeninges are the relatively large veins of the pia mater, which have very thin walls. Passing between the lining cells of the pia mater the granulocytes leave the connective tissue space of the pia mater and reach the SAS. Leukodiapedesis has also been observed in veins crossing the SAS. During this process, gaps between the lining cells of the perivascular leptomeningeal sheath may develop. There are two possible ways for the granulocytes to pass from the vascular pia m…
The arterial blood supply of the temporomandibular joint: an anatomical study and clinical implications
2013
Purpose: The aim of this study was to analyze three-dimensional images of the arterial supply to the temporomandibular joint. Materials and Methods: Ten patients (five men and five women, mean age 36 years) without signs or symptoms of temporomandibular disorders, who underwent contrast-enhanced computed tomographic (CT) scanning with intravenous contrast, were studied. The direct volume rendering technique of CT images was used, and a data set of images to visualize the vasculature of the human temporomandibular joint in three dimensions was created. After elaboration of the data through post-processing, the arterial supply of the temporomandibular joint was studied. Results: The analysis …
