- Sinonasal (Schneiderian) Tumors in the Temporal Bone: Case Series and Systematic Review
This systematic review of patients with middle ear sinonasal-type tumors with a history of primary sinonasal tumors shows a tumor pattern supporting the hypothesis that the Eustachian tube may facilitate the spread of sinonasal neoplasms from the sinonasal cavity to the temporal bone.
- Does CISS MRI Reliably Depict the Endolymphatic Duct in Children with and without Vestibular Aqueduct Enlargement?
In this retrospective review of temporal bone high-resolution CT and CISS MR imaging of 98 hearing-impaired children, the authors found that the CISS MR imaging technique commonly used for inner ear evaluation performs poorly overall at resolving the endolymphatic duct and underdiagnoses enlarged vestibular aqueduct. If the endolymphatic duct is easily seen on CISS imaging, there is a .99% probability that the vestibular aqueduct is enlarged.
- Hemorrhage Volume Drives Early Brain Injury and Outcome in Poor-Grade Aneurysmal SAH
Early brain injury (radiologically defined by global cerebral edema) is a major determinant of clinical outcome in poor-grade aneurysmal SAH. In this retrospective study of 400 patients with poor-grade aneurysmal SAH, it was shown that intracerebral hemorrhage volume independently predicted global cerebral edema and long-term outcome, intraventricular hemorrhage volume predicted mortality and long-term outcome, and SAH volume predicted long-term clinical outcome.
- Expanding the Imaging Spectrum of Polymorphous Low-Grade Neuroepithelial Tumor of the Young in Children
The imaging spectrum of neuroimaging features in a series of pediatric patients with a histologically and molecularly proven polymorphous low-grade neuroepithelial tumor of the young is described, including the transmantle-like sign and adjacent cortical dysplasia.
