    Pyramidal signs such as hyperreflexia, spasticity, Babinski sign, and clonus can be found. 18 Lesions at the level of the conus medullaris (L1-L2) usually result in flaccid paresis and early sphincter involvement, while lesions below this level (cauda [healio.com]

  • Spinal Cord Syndrome

    We report such a case in which a subacutely progressive motor and sensory spinal cord syndrome was the initial problem. The differential diagnosis and the difficulties in distinguishing intramedullary from extramedullary mass lesions are discussed. [ncbi.nlm.nih.gov]

  • Focal Neurologic Deficit

    He had full reversal of his pain and sensory deficit, and remained ambulatory without any focal neurological deficit. [ncbi.nlm.nih.gov]

  • Excitement

    T1-weighted (450/14/2 [repetition time/echo time/excitations]) sagittal spin-echo images with a 4 mm section thickness were obtained before and after an intravenous injection of gadolinium. [nature.com]

  • Urinary Incontinence

    On admission, she had difficulty with her gait and with urinary retention and had episodes of overflow urinary incontinence. Her midthoracic pain was incapacitating despite a transdermal fentanyl patch and oral rescue opioids. [jamaevidence.mhmedical.com]

    Pathology H and E (hematoxylin and eosin) staining showed neoplastic tissue composed of sheaths of cells with ovaloid nuclei and without a cytoplasmic border; some had a ground glass appearance and nuclear grooves. [surgicalneurologyint.com]

  • White Matter Lesions

    We present a case of a 44 year-old male with a history of parotid gland metastatic salivary ductal carcinoma (SDC) and incidental demyelinating white matter lesions on brain magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) diagnosed as radiologically isolated syndrome [ncbi.nlm.nih.gov]

Median survival ranged from 3.8 to 11.6 months after treatment in patients who were deceased at time of publication. Treatments included corticosteroids, chemotherapy, various radiotherapies, and surgical resection. [ncbi.nlm.nih.gov]
