| The angiographic findings in a case of metastatic meningeal carcinomatosis and a case of primary meningeal sarcomatosis are presented. |
|
| The spinal cord is a long shaft of tissue made up of neurons and supporting cells that is covered by meningeal membranes. |
|
| The innermost meningeal layer, the pia mater, is closely applied to the surface of the brain tissue and carries many small arteries and veins. |
|
| Epidural hemorrhage presents acutely or subacutely, and usually occurs secondary to the tearing of a middle meningeal artery. |
|
| Intracranial rhabdomyosarcomas are rare neoplasms, and those thought to be primary meningeal tumors are even more rare. |
|
| Pigmented primary intracranial tumors other than meningeal melanocytomas and melanomas are rare. |
|
| Focal neurological deficits and features of raised intracranial tension may precede signs of meningeal irritation. |
|
| Metastatic lesions can present as solitary or multiple intracranial masses, as meningeal carcinomatosis, or with spinal cord involvement. |
|
| Triptans work by vasoconstricting the meningeal blood vessels. |
|
| More anteriorly, the optic nerve is surrounded only by the smooth meningeal or inner layer of the dura, which blends with the sclera of the eyeball. |
|
| Beware of meningeal, vascular or cerebral complications, as well as torpid frontal osteitis, extremely rare but very serious! |
|
| The meningocele form of the disorder is characterized by a meningeal pouch that visibly projects through the skin. |
|
| Extradural hematomas may be complications of fractures of the temporal bone that rupture the middle meningeal artery. |
|
| Extradural hematomas, often from tearing of the middle meningeal artery, may result as a complication of a head injury. |
|
| Meningitis is an inflammation of the meningeal coverings of the nervous system, with possible involvement of the brain. |
|
| Patients with nonbacterial, or aseptic, meningitis also have fever, headache, and other meningeal signs, but they are not so obviously ill. |
|
| Less common effects are meningeal irritation, mild encephalopathy, migrating musculoskeletal pain, and hepatitis. |
|
| However, overseas, the classic meningeal syndrome with fever, vomiting and stiff neck must be distinguished from an attack of malaria. |
|
| The presentation may be of an unexplained mass or cranial nerve palsies, meningeal symptoms, or even respiratory problems caused by brainstem infiltration. |
|
| One of the possible pathophysiological mechanisms would be the activation of the trigemino-vascular system, with neurogen inflammation of meningeal vessels and central sensitization of trigeminal neurones. |
|
|
|
| This involves serious consequences concerning not only the continuation of the surgical operation and the pronostic of the hearing but also concerning the danger of secondary meningeal infections. |
|
| Fever, meningeal signs, nausea and vomiting are rare. |
|
| It can occur when a traumatic force applied to the head is sufficient to cause a deformity of the skull and damage to the underlying middle meningeal artery. |
|
| The epidural space is prone to blood collection due to the presence of a series of arteries that supply blood to the meninges, the meningeal arteries. |
|
| The most important manifestations of the disease are miliary and meningeal disease given the high morbidity and mortality associated with these forms. |
|
| The largest meningeal artery, the middle meningeal artery, is the source of most epidural hematomas because of its location near the temporal skull. |
|
| Another serious parasitic disease of moose is caused by the meningeal worm, so called because it attacks the meninges, or membranes, surrounding the brain and spinal cord. |
|
| Joachim had suffered an acute meningeal hemorrhage. |
|
| Camelid owners have been controlling meningeal worm by regularly deworming their alpacas and llamas. |
|
| Severe, acute meningeal irritative reaction after epidural blood patch. |
|
| John's wort, to relieve meningeal nociception in an animal model induced by administration of the nitric oxide donors glyceryl trinitrate and sodium nitroprusside. |
|
| Meningism, commonly associated with the meningeal irritation of meningitis, may be mistaken for neck stiffness associated with impending tonsillar herniation. |
|
| Meningeal spread is not uncommon in cases of intracranial gliomas or metastatic carcinoma. |
|
| Meningeal carcinomatosis is the tumoral invasion of the leptomeninges. |
