Cognitive Effects of Montelukast: A Pharmaco-EEG Study.

Montelukast is a well-established antiasthmatic drug with little side effects. It is a leukotriene receptor antagonist and recent research suggests cognitive benefits from its anti-inflammatory actions on the central nervous system. However, changes in brain activity were not directly shown so far in humans.

Successful surgical treatment of thoracic multiorgan lymphangiomatosis.

Lymphangiomas are regarded as malformations arising from sequestration of lymphatic tissue that fail to communicate with the lymphatic system. Lymphangiomatosis is defined as a pathological condition where either multiple lymphangiomas are present or multiple organ systems are involved. We report a 30-year-old male who presented with cough, hemoptysis and severe dyspnea as the result of progressive chylothorax and chylopericardium.
