A multimodal diagnostic study of the brain was carried out in 22 patients with arterial hypertension (mean systolic blood pressure 152,8 ± 7,6 mm Hg, mean diastolic blood pressure 94,6 ± 5,2 mm Hg), without cardiovascular events in anamnesis. Magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) imaging and dynamic contrast-enhanced perfusion X-ray computer assisted tomography scan (DynCT) of the brain were performed at admission and after six months of antihypertensive treatment. Based on the MRI and DynCT visual data the extent of periventricular oedema, dimensions of liquor system and regional cerebral blood flow (as ml/min/100 g tissue) were quantified. The quantitative MRI and DynCT indices were analyzed regarding the decrease of blood pressure. Significant decrease of periventricular oedema and improvement in perfusion of basal ganglii area were observed in patients demonstrated decrease in systolic blood pressure for 12-28 mm Hg. The degree of the blood pressure decrease was not associated with the significant MRI and DynCT data improvement. Hencefore, we conclude that the brain MRI and perfusion DynCT data can be employed for evaluation of cerebroprotective effects of antihypertensive therapy.

Cerebral ependymal cyst is a rare benign neuroepithelial cyst. We report a case of cerebral ependymal cyst in a 62-year-old lady who presented with status epilepticus. She gave history of progressive right occipital headache over a year. Magnetic Resonance Imaging of the brain showed a large occipital cyst. She underwent a right craniotomy, deroofing of the cyst and insertion of Ommaya catheter. The clinicopathological aspects of the cyst are discussed.

Temporal lobe epilepsy is a neurological disorder of an unprovoked type of focal (partial) epilepsy that begins in the temporal lobe of the brain. Patients with this condition are often misdiagnosed due to similarities in presentation to other conditions. In this case report, we presented a 34-year-old male, who had symptoms of hallucination, anxiety, and depression which can be seen in patients with temporal lobe epilepsy. Due overlap in symptoms, he was misdiagnosed to have schizophrenia. Following subsequent review of his medical history and findings seen in his laboratory work and imaging studies, it was determined that his symptoms were caused by seizures originating from an atrophic lesion in his hippocampus found on magnetic resonance imaging of his temporal lobe.

Wall Tumor

A 9-year-old spayed female German shepherd mixed-breed dog presented for seizures. Magnetic resonance imaging revealed an irregularly marginated intraparenchymal cerebral mass. Microscopic examination of brain tissue collected postmortem demonstrated perivascular whorling and interwoven bundles of spindle-shaped cells. On immunohistochemistry, the tumor cells tested positive for vimentin and negative for factor VIII-related antigen, CD18, CD45, CD3, CD20, GFAP, S-100, and desmin. Immunohistochemistry results, in combination with histopathologic morphology, were suggestive of a perivascular wall tumor. To the authors’ knowledge, this is the first case report to utilize both histopathology and immunohistochemistry to describe a perivascular wall tumor in the brain of a dog.

Abstract Background Infliximab-induced seizures in patients with Crohn’s disease are extremely rare and the mechanism of infliximab-induced seizures is unclear. Case presentation A 60-year-old woman with Crohn’s disease experienced infliximab-induced seizures, diagnosed on normal magnetic resonance imaging of the brain. Moreover, the rechallenge with infliximab was positive. Conclusions Neurological assessment and tight clinical monitoring before and during therapy with infliximab should be performed in patients with pre-existing seizure disorders.
