Bilateral Internuclear Ophthalmoplegia in a Middle Aged Male due to Infarct

Internuclear ophthalmoparesis (INO) is a specific gaze abnormality characterized by impaired adduc- tion of the affected eye with abduction nystagmus of the contralateral eye. It results from a lesion in the medial longitudinal fasciculus (MLF) in the dorsomedial brainstem, tegmentum of either the pons or the midbrain [1]. The INO can be unilateral or bilateral

Staged Bilateral Traumatic Pedicle Fractures in The Lumbar Spine

Staged bilateral traumatic pedicle fractures of lumbar spine (LS) are rare, only two cases have been de- scribed in the literature. This is the first case reported in an adolescent patient. Injuries to this area, therefore, are infrequent and involve the transfer of high amounts of energy responsible most often for spinal instability requiring spinal

Transanal Protrusion of Ventriculoperitoneal Shunt

A 46-year-old woman, she was operated a year ago, for a normal pressure hydrocephalus with insertion of a Ventriculoperitoneal Shunt (VPS). The evolution was favorable. She was admitted for trans-anal protru- sion of the VPS peritoneal catheter. Furthermore, the patient was asymptomatic with a mobile trans-anal catheter with peristaltic movements of the intestines the culture

Assessment of A Software for Semi-Automatically Calculating the Bone Scan Index on Bone Scintigraphy Scans

The incidence of bone metastases exceeds 85% in patients who die of prostate cancer. Therefore, it is important to diagnose bone metastases from prostate cancer using bone scintig- raphy. We developed a software program that semi-automatically calculates the bone scan index (BSI) on 99mTechnetium-hydroxymethylene diphosphonate bone scintigraphy scans with a computer-aided diagnosis system (VSBONE® BSI).

Association Between Testosterone Levels and Clinical Markers of Atherosclerosis

To investigate the association between testosterone levels and parameters obtained from the clinical exercise stress test from 119 middle-aged Swedish men. All subjects underwent a clinical exercise stress test and data on maximal heart rate, systolic pressure, diastolic pressure; and ST-segment levels in lead augmented vector foot (lead aVF) and lead left precordial voltage 5
