Anatomy of the brainstem

Seminars in Pediatric Neurology, 2003
Understanding the anatomy of the brainstem is essential when evaluating disorders of swallowing and breathing. We present a review of the neuroanatomy of the brainstem and related cranial nerves.

Degeneration of the Brainstem

Seminars in Ultrasound, CT and MRI, 2013
Magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) is the most sensitive imaging technique for assessing brainstem involvement in neurodegenerative diseases. An MRI can assess the degree of atrophy of the brainstem and alterations in signal intensity on T2-weighted images in the affected areas, which are the main imaging findings found in these diseases.

Brainstem gangliogliomas

Pediatric Neurology, 1986
Gangliogliomas are rare neurogliogenic tumors of the central nervous system. Primary involvement of the brainstem is characterized by variable presentations and a long clinical course before diagnosis. Identification of this group of tumors is essential because clinical improvement and prolonged survival have been documented following partial surgical ...

Brainstem Gliomas

Neurosurgery Clinics of North America, 1992
Brainstem gliomas, a relatively common form of childhood brain tumor, are highly resistant to therapy. With computed tomography and magnetic resonance imaging, these lesions can be diagnosed with a high degree of reliability. The indications for surgery are unclear. Focal lesions may be amenable to partial resections.

Brainstem abscess

Surgical Neurology, 1987
A case of midbrain abscess that was successfully treated by surgical evacuation is reported. The abscess was located in the rostral tegmentum of the midbrain and was aspirated using an infratentorial supracerebellar approach. The patient subsequently returned to his high school.

Brainstem Gliomas

Seminars in Ultrasound, CT and MRI, 2013
Historically, brainstem gliomas have been considered as a single entity. Since the introduction of magnetic resonance (MR) imaging in the late 1980s, these tumors are now regarded as a heterogeneous group of neoplasms with different age of onset, clinical and radiologic presentation, and varying behavior and natural history.

Cochlear and brainstem implantation

Otolaryngologic Clinics of North America, 2002
Cochlear implantation is an established habilitative and rehabilitative option for profoundly deafened individuals over 1 year of age who derive limited benefit from conventional hearing aids. Auditory performance varies among individuals and is determined primarily by age at implantation, pre-existence of speech and language skills, and the time ...

Brainstem Ganglioglioma

Journal of Child Neurology, 2008
Gangliogliomas are usually benign slow-growing neoplasms, seen mainly in the first 3 decades of life and are prevalently located supratentorial, mostly in the temporal and frontal lobe. The authors present a rare case of a brainstem ganglioglioma in an 11-year-old boy who was referred to their hospital complaining of episodes of blurry vision, loss of

Cerebellar and Brainstem Malformations

Neuroimaging Clinics of North America, 2016
The frequency and importance of the evaluation of the posterior fossa have increased significantly over the past 20 years owing to advances in neuroimaging. Conventional and advanced neuroimaging techniques allow detailed evaluation of the complex anatomic structures within the posterior fossa.

Brainstem tumors

2012
Diffuse brainstem glioma is the most common subtype of brainstem tumor and remains a devastating malignancy, particularly in children. Recent advances in radiological diagnostic techniques may improve the classification of these heterogeneous tumors and contribute to differential diagnosis.
