Bladder carcinoma (BLCA) is characterized by a high rate of post-surgery recurrence and multifocality. Multifocal tumors have a higher risk of recurrence compared to single tumors, significantly impacting bladder cancer-specific mortality. However, the interregional or intraregional heterogeneity within both primary and recurrent tumors remains poorly understood.

Article Synopsis
  • The study aimed to examine the clinical presentation, diagnosis, and outcomes of spinal only meningoencephalomyelitis (so-AME) of unknown origin in French bulldogs and compare it to intervertebral disc herniation in the same breed.
  • A total of 15 French bulldogs were diagnosed with so-AME, with chronic onset symptoms common, primarily showing signs like ambulatory paresis and proprioceptive ataxia, while spinal pain was rare.
  • Magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) typically showed intramedullary lesions, and most dogs responded positively to immunosuppressive treatments, but there was a higher duration of clinical signs compared to dogs with intervertebral disc herniation.

Background And Objective: Proximal spinal muscular atrophy (SMA) is caused by deficiency of the ubiquitously expressed survival motor neuron protein. Although primarily a hereditary lower motor neuron disease, it is probably also characterized by abnormalities in other organs. Brain abnormalities and cognitive impairment have been reported in severe SMA.

We describe the case of a 36-year-old woman with a past medical history of low grade right frontal lobe glioma and focal epilepsy presenting with subacute, progressive, multifocal myoclonus and neck and back pain. Unlike her typical seizures, the myoclonus exhibited a distinct semiology, involving both positive and negative muscle jerks affecting multiple limb muscles while sparing the face. In addition, neurological examination revealed low-amplitude, arrhythmic movements of the hands and fingers, resembling minipolymyoclonus.
