Hyperostosis in meningioma: a retrospective exploration of histological correlates.

Purpose: Meningiomas are the most common type of primary brain tumour. Hyperostosis is commonly associated but remains incompletely understood. This study aimed to evaluate the relationship between meningioma-associated hyperostosis and other tumour variables.

Accurate digital quantification of tau pathology in progressive supranuclear palsy.

The development of novel treatments for Progressive Supranuclear Palsy (PSP) is hindered by a knowledge gap of the impact of neurodegenerative neuropathology on brain structure and function. The current standard practice for measuring postmortem tau histology is semi-quantitative assessment, which is prone to inter-rater variability, time-consuming and difficult to scale. We developed and optimized a tau aggregate type-specific quantification pipeline for cortical and subcortical regions, in human brain donors with PSP.

Multisystem pathology in McLeod syndrome.

We present a comprehensive characterization of clinical, neuropathological, and multisystem features of a man with genetically confirmed McLeod neuroacanthocytosis syndrome, including video and autopsy findings. A 61-year-old man presented with a movement disorder and behavioral change. Examination showed dystonic choreiform movements in all four limbs, reduced deep-tendon reflexes, and wide-based gait.

In Vivo F-Flortaucipir PET Does Not Accurately Support the Staging of Progressive Supranuclear Palsy.

Progressive supranuclear palsy (PSP) is a neurodegenerative disorder characterized by neuroglial tau pathology. A new staging system for PSP pathology postmortem has been described and validated. We used a data-driven approach to test whether postmortem pathologic staging in PSP can be reproduced in vivo with F-flortaucipir PET.

Pulsatile tinnitus as the presenting symptom in a patient with posterior reversible encephalopathy syndrome.

Objectives: We present a case of posterior reversible encephalopathy syndrome (PRES) presenting with pulsatile tinnitus. We highlight the significance of a detailed neurological and cardiovascular assessment including the measurement of blood pressure in patients presenting with pulsatile tinnitus.

Method: Case presentation and literature review.
