AI Article Synopsis

  • * The case described involves a 62-year-old man who experienced significant brain bleeding after a minor injury, leading to further imaging that indicated a potential hemorrhagic mass.
  • * Surgery revealed that the mass was a meningioma, highlighting the need for thorough investigation of brain bleeding, especially when it seems excessive compared to any known cause.

Article Abstract

Meningiomas are relatively common intracranial tumors. While typically discovered incidentally or related to symptoms from regional mass effect, on rare occasions, they can present as acute intracranial hemorrhage. We report a case of a 62-year-old male who presented with significant acute intracranial hemorrhage with a history of minor trauma. Imaging workup demonstrated a hemorrhagic mass to be the likely cause of the hemorrhage. Upon resection of the mass, pathology demonstrated meningioma. It is important to thoroughly investigate intracranial hemorrhage, particularly when it appears out of proportion to any known causative event, in order to accurately diagnose, manage, and treat these patients.

December 2024

Department of Gynecology, Obstetrics and Neonatology, Division of Gynecology and Obstetrics, Medical University of Gdańsk, 80-210 Gdańsk, Poland.

Premature deliveries and preterm newborns are of a special significance to obstetricians. Despite great improvement in neonatal intensive care in the last two decades, prematurity is still the leading cause of neonatal mortality and morbidity. Complications associated with premature deliveries are malpresentation, prolapse of the umbilical cord, entrapment of some parts of the fetal body, as well as severe bruising or bone fractures.

Magnetic Induction Phase Difference for Cerebral Hemorrhage Detection.

Sensors (Basel)

December 2024

Department of Biomedical Engineering, Army Medical University, The Third Military Medical University, Chongqing 400038, China.

Magnetic induction phase shift is a promising technology for the detection of cerebral hemorrhage, owing to its nonradioactive, noninvasive, and real-time detection properties. To enhance the detection sensitivity and linearity, a zero-flow sensor was proposed. The uniform primary magnetic field and its counteraction were achieved.
