Intussusception in the adult is an uncommon cause of intestinal obstruction. Seventeen cases were seen at two teaching hospitals over a twenty‐year period. A local causative lesion was preent in all cases; a malignant tumour was present in two out of seven intussusceptions arising in the small intestine and in seven out of ten arising in the large ...

Radiology, 1958
Diastematomyelia is a congenital malformation in which a band of fibrous or bony tissue extends dorsoventrally through the spinal canal and between the portions of either a partially duplicated or split spinal cord. According to Bremer (2), this represents one manifestation of a persistent accessory neurenteric canal or dorsal intestinal fistula. These

The authors report two cases of diastematomyelia in adults. One patient had a congenital kyphoscoliosis; the other had undergone surgery at birth for a myelomeningocele. The occurrence of diastematomyelia in patients with congenital scoliosis and myelomeningocele is discussed.

Ependymomas are rare primary central nervous system tumors in adults. They occur most commonly in the spinal cord, where histopathologic evaluation is critical to differentiate the grade I myxopapillary ependymoma from the grade II ependymoma or grade III anaplastic ependymoma. Brain ependymomas are either grade II or III.

The acute form of osteomyelitis in the adult is distinctly uncommon except for that seen in the vertebrae. A significant increase in osteomyelitis due to gram-negative rods has been observed. The proper choice of antibacterial drugs is essential. Surgical treatment is still required for removal of infected and scarred tissue.

We evaluated with clinical interviews and polysomnographic examinations 10 adults with the complaint of sleepwalking, often accompanied by violent behavior or self-injury. During the polysomnographic studies, 8 patients had 47 distinct somnambulistic episodes. All episodes occurred in non-REM sleep, with 91% occurring in slow-wave sleep.

Abstract Two sisters are presented, now aged forty-one and forty-two, whom we think represent adult survivors of hypophosphatasia, a disease hitherto only described in children. Both sisters had had "rickets" in childhood, from which they had made a spontaneous recovery.
