An Aberrant Case of Neuromyelitis Optica Spectrum Disorder With a Review of Literature.

Neuromyelitis optica spectrum disorder (NMOSD) is a rare, acquired demyelinating condition predominantly affecting middle-aged women and is characterized by spinal cord inflammation and optic neuritis.

Diagnostic Accuracy of Hounsfield Unit Value and Hounsfield Unit to Hematocrit Ratio in Predicting Cerebral Venous Sinus Thrombosis: A Retrospective Case-Control Study.

Objective: Non-contrast computed tomography (CT) of the brain is a primary neuroimaging modality in emergency patients suspected of having cerebral venous sinus thrombosis (CVST). The objective of the study was to determine the diagnostic accuracy of Hounsfield unit (HU) values and the ratio of HU to hematocrit value (HU/Htc) in predicting CVST in suspected patients.

Material And Methods: A retrospective, case-control study was done in a tertiary care institute which included 35 patients with CVST constituted as cases and 41 patients without CVST as controls on the basis of magnetic resonance venography (MRV).

Frontal sinus osteoma with pneumocephalus: A rare cause of progressive hemiparesis.

Osteomas of paranasal sinuses are common benign tumors and are diagnosed incidentally. However, osteomas complicated by pneumocephalus with air fluid level presenting with progressive hemiparesis is rare. Here, we present a case report of a 22-year-old male who presented with left-sided progressive hemiparesis with history of generalized headache since 2 years.
