CASE PRESENTATIONWe report a case of Rasmussen encephalitis (RE) in a 7yearold boy of the Yoruba ethnic group in Nigeria. This to the best of our knowledge is the first reported case of this condition in a Nigerian. He had computed tomography (CT) and magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) scan of the brain and electroencephalography (EEG). CONCLUSIONWe want to emphasize the importance of imaging in the diagnosis of seizure disorder, especially when it is intractable. To diagnose RE, the index of clinical suspicion has to be high. It is probable that some cases of this condition will be missed in our environment as a result of inadequate imaging, stemming from availability and cost considerations. RE is extremely rare and many radiologists practicing in sub-Saharan Africa may not see a single case of RE in their practice life as a result of the paucity of MRI facilities (which is required for diagnosis) in this sub-region.","PeriodicalId":22526,"journal":{"name":"The Internet Journal of Radiology","volume":"83 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2009-12-31","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"75188740","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

BalasubramanyaA.","doi":"10.5580/26eb","DOIUrl":"https://doi.org/10.5580/26eb","url":null,"abstract":"In a case of Cerebrospinal Fluid (CSF) leak from the ear, radiological investigations are mainly performed to examine and evaluate the mastoid bones. Occipital condyles are often overlooked. The usual causes for CSF to leak into the ear are related to factors that cause an increase in intracerebral pressure. Similar factors may also be responsible for the formation of a pneumatocele and subsequent pneumatisation of the mastoid and occipital bones. Pneumatization in the skull is normally confined to the mastoid process. Pneumatization in bones other than the temporal bone such as the occipital bone is exceptionally rare and has very few cases reported so far. It has been postulated that occipital pneumatization is a consequence of communication between the temporal and occipital bones. Persistently increased intraluminal pressure has been proposed as a mechanism of pneumocele formation which later progresses to pneumatisation of occipital bones. Fluid in the occipital bones following increased intracerebral pressure has not yet been reported. Isolated cases of pneumatocysts within the occipital condyle however have been documented. If the cause for such pneumatisation or fluid accumulation is left untreated then complications such as spontaneous intracranial epidural accumulation of air, fracture of C1 and the occipital bone, spontaneous subcutaneous emphysema and pneumatocele formation can occur leading to severe morbidity and mortality. We present a case of CSF Rhinorrhea and Otorrhea in a 41 year old male secondary to a space occupying lesion in the right lateral ventricle of the brain with fluid in the right occipital condyle with a review of relevant literature.","PeriodicalId":22526,"journal":{"name":"The Internet Journal of Radiology","volume":"35 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2009-12-31","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"79257457","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

In the case of a 52-year-old gentleman, clinical and radiological evidence led to the impression of a meniscal tear and a parameniscal cyst. Histopathological examination after open surgical excision refuted the suspected diagnosis and confirmed presence of an IPFP cyst.

The purpose of this study was to evaluate clinical usefulness of 4D-CT for brain tumors. Methods: The subjects included 24 consecutive patients with brain tumors comprising glioblastomas (n=5), fibrillary astrocytoma (n=1), oligodendroglioma (n=1), anaplastic oligodendrogliomas (n=3), anaplastic oligoastrocytoma (n=1), medulloblastoma (n=1), meningiomas (n=5), anaplastic meningioma (n=1), craniopharyngioma (n=1), hemangioblastoma (n=1), and malignant lymphomas (n=4). Continuous 1.0-sec scanning was performed using a 64-row MD-CT. Serial volume rendered (VR) images were displayed in cine mode. 4D-CT was evaluated in depiction of feeding arteries, tumor staining, and early appearance of draining veins, and compared with IADSA in 14 patients. Pertinent facts: 4D-CT was able to depict tumor staining in all of 13 patients who showed tumor staining by IADSA. Feeding arteries were visualized in 9 patients by IADSA and in 7 patients by 4DCT. Early appearance of draining veins was visualized in 8 patients by IADSA, but in 7 patients by 4D-CT. Early appearance of draining veins was seen in patients with pathologically malignant tumors except for a patient with hemangioblastoma. In 11 patients who did not undergo IADSA, 4D-CT was able to depict tumor staining in 10 patients, feeding arteries in 3 patients, and early appearance of a draining vein in 3 patients. Conclusions: 4D-CT provides hemodynamic information about tumors, such as presence of feeding arteries, tumor staining, and early appearance of draining veins. 4D-CT is a feasible alternative to IADSA in hemodynamic depiction of brain tumors.","PeriodicalId":22526,"journal":{"name":"The Internet Journal of Radiology","volume":"1 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2009-12-31","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"85558004","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
