Cerebral Venous Thrombosis: A Challenging Diagnosis; A New Nonenhanced Computed Tomography Standardized Semi-Quantitative Method.

Cerebral venous sinus thrombosis (CVST) on non-contrast CT (NCCT) is often challenging to detect. We retrospectively selected 41 children and 36 adults with confirmed CVST and two age-matched control groups with comparable initial symptoms. We evaluated NCCT placing four small circular ROIs in standardized regions of the cerebral dural venous system.

Epidural bleeding secondary to a synovial cyst rupture: a case report and review of literature.

Hemorrhage into a juxtafacet cyst is rare and cyst rupture with hemorrhagic extension into the epidural space is even less commonly seen. We describe the case of a patient with a hemorrhagic synovial cyst with rupture associated to abundant bleeding in the epidural space. A 61-year-old man had a 5-month history of worsening low back pain radiating into the right leg with associated weakness and numbness.

Role of non-echo-planar diffusion-weighted images in the identification of recurrent cholesteatoma of the temporal bone.

Background And Purpose: The aim of the present prospective study was to verify the specificity of non-EPI DWI-MRI in patients operated for middle ear CHO who showed positivity at imaging performed 6 to 9 months after surgery and underwent second-look surgery.

Materials And Methods: All patients underwent 1.5-T non-EPI DWI-MRI 6 to 9 months after surgery: those showing a hyper-intense signal in the middle ear underwent a revision surgery, whilst the others are still under radiological follow-up and were not considered in this study.
