Congenital lumbosacral lipomas can be responsible for progressive defects. The general feeling is that tethering of roots, filum, or cord probably explains this evolution, and that untethering of… (More)
Focal cortical dysplasia (FCD) is an increasingly recognized cause of intractable epilepsy. Surgical data suggest that the dysplastic cortex should be removed to obtain freedom from seizures, but the… (More)
INTRODUCTION
Intraspinal meningiomas account for 25%-46% of primary spinal cord tumors. Technical advances in magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) and surgical procedures (ultrasonic cavitation… (More)
PURPOSE
To present the SALT group results using Linac radiosurgery (RS) for AVM in 169 evaluable patients treated from January 1990 thru December 1993.
METHODS AND MATERIALS
Median age was 33 years… (More)
OBJECTIVE
The need to repair dural defects has prompted the use of dura mater substitutes. Many synthetic materials have been used for dural closure. Neuro-Patch (B. Braun Médical S.A., Boulogne,… (More)
We assessed the value of three-dimensional (3D) dynamic magnetic resonance angiography (MRA) for the follow-up of patients with radiosurgically treated cerebral arteriovenous malformations (AVMs).… (More)
BACKGROUND AND PURPOSE
Arterial wall enhancement on vessel wall MRI was described in intracranial inflammatory arterial disease. We hypothesized that circumferential aneurysmal wall enhancement… (More)
PURPOSE
To evaluate the efficacy and outcome of Linac radiosurgery (RS) as treatment of cerebral arteriovenous malformations (cAVM) in a series of 57 children.
METHODS AND MATERIALS
Between 1984… (More)
PURPOSE
Retrospective comparison of Linac radiosurgery (RS) in 93 single brain metastases with or without a 2-mm margin.
PATIENTS AND METHODS
A total of 153 patients had Linac RS (between April… (More)
BACKGROUND AND PURPOSE
Our aim was to develop 3D dynamic MR digital subtraction angiography with high temporal resolution without sacrificing spatial resolution by using sensitivity encoding for the… (More)
