1. Cervical brucellar spondylitis causing incomplete limb paralysis
Abstract Brucellosis, a zoonosis with worldwide distribution, is a systemic infection caused by bacteria of the genus Brucella. Meanwhile, brucellosis often causes complications, such as osteoarticular involvement, and spondylitis is the most prevalent and important clinical form. Here, is a case of cervical brucellar spondylitis causing incomplete limb para

3. Outcomes of a Physician Survey on the Type, Progression, Assessment, and Treatment of Neurological Disease in Mucopolysaccharidoses
Abstract The mucopolysaccharidosis (MPS) disorders are a group of rare, inherited lysosomal storage disorders. In each of the 11 MPS (sub)types, deficiency in a specific lysosomal enzyme (1 of 11 identified enzymes) leads to accumulation of glycosaminoglycans, resulting in cell, tissue, and multi-organ dysfunction. There is great heterogeneity in the clinica

4. RADIOACTIVE CEMENT OF PMMA AND HAP-Sm-153, Ho-166, OR RE-188 FOR BONE METASTASIS TREATMENT
RESUMO Polymethylmetacrylte (PMMA) é um composto utilizado na indústria e desde os anos 80's também tem sido empregado nas áreas odontológica e biomédica como constituinte de cimentos ósseos. A hydroxyapatite (HAp) é uma biocerâmica produzida naturalmente nos ossos. Esses dois componentes são constituintes fundamentais no preparo de cimentos ósseo

5. Compressão de medula espinhal ocasionada por melanoma em cavalo de pelagem castanha
ABSTRACT This paper describes a case of malignant melanoma in brown coat horse, which had ataxia and proprioceptive deficits in hind limbs, progressing to permanent decubitus. The animal was euthanized and the final diagnosis was based on necropsy and histopathology. At necropsy different masses and / or nodules in skeletal muscle, bone, abdominal cavity, lu

6. Technique of spinal cord compression induced by inflation of epidural balloon catheter in rabbits (Oryctologus cuniculus): efficient and easy to use model
ABSTRACT The most common cause of spinal cord injury are high impact trauma, which often result in some motor impairment, sensory or autonomic a greater or lesser extent in the distal areas the level of trauma. In terms of survival and complications due to sequelae, veterinary patients have a poor prognosis unfavorable. Therefore justified the study of exper

7. Assessment of the diagnostic value of diffusion tensor imaging in patients with spinal cord compression: a meta-analysis
We investigated the diagnostic value of the apparent diffusion coefficient (ADC) and fractional anisotropy (FA) of magnetic resonance diffusion tensor imaging (DTI) in patients with spinal cord compression (SCC) using a meta-analysis framework. Multiple scientific literature databases were exhaustively searched to identify articles relevant to this study. Me

8. The negative prognostic impact of bone metastasis with a tumor mass
OBJECTIVE:Typically, bone metastasis causes osteolytic and osteoblastic lesions resulting from the interactions of tumor cells with osteoclasts and osteoblasts. In addition to these interactions, tumor tissues may grow inside bones and cause mass lesions. In the present study, we aimed to demonstrate the negative impact of a tumor mass in a large cohort of p

9. Spinal cord compression after radiolabeled metaiodobenzylguanidine analogue therapy in advanced malignant insulinoma
Malignant insulinomas are frequently diagnosed at a late stage. Medical management is necessary to slow progression of the disease and control of hypoglycemic symptoms when cure by surgical treatment is not possible. Multimodal treatment, in these cases, has been used with variable clinical response. We describe a 68-yr-old woman who presented response failu

10. Effect of melatonin on the functional recovery from experimental traumatic compression of the spinal cord
Spinal cord injury is an extremely severe condition with no available effective therapies. We examined the effect of melatonin on traumatic compression of the spinal cord. Sixty male adult Wistar rats were divided into three groups: sham-operated animals and animals with 35 and 50% spinal cord compression with a polycarbonate rod spacer. Each group was divid

11. Avaliação da utilização de um programa computadorizado para aplicação da escala de Basso, Beattie e Bresnahan (BBB) em ratos Wistar / Evaluation of the use of a computer software for the application of the Basso, Beattie e Bresnahan (BBB) scale in Wistar rats
A escala de Basso, Beattie e Brenahan (BBB) serve para avaliação da recuperação locomotora em ratos com lesão medular nos níveis torácicos. É baseada em critérios observacionais da movimentação do animal durante a marcha e atribui uma pontuação de 0 a 21 segundo a gravidade da lesão neurológica. Menor pontuação, maior gravidade. Tal escala p

12. Tratamento inovador da compressão medular com reposição enzimática intratecal nas mucopolissacaridoses tipos I e VI : relato de uma série de casos / Innovative treatment of cord compression with trathecal enzyme replacement therapy in mucopolysaccharidoses I and VI: report of a case series
As mucopolissacaridoses apresentam uma história natural progressiva, causada por defeitos no metabolismo dos glicosaminoglicanos. Frequentemente graves, as mucopolissacaridoses encurtam de forma considerável a expectativa de vida do paciente. Apesar de que em muitos casos a função intelectual é normal, morbidade neurológica considerável pode ser causa
