Basal ganglia germinoma with progressive cerebral hemiatrophy

Pediatric Neurology, 1999
The authors describe a 7-year-old Chinese-American female with a germinoma of the basal ganglia who presented with progressive hemiparesis and cerebral hemiatrophy. The additional finding of markedly elevated antiphospholipid antibodies suggests the possibility of an autoimmune pathogenesis for the progressive cerebral atrophy, as well as the later ...

Acquired Cerebral Hemiatrophy: Idiopathic?

Cerebral Hemiatrophy and Schizophrenia

British Journal of Psychiatry, 1994
BackgroundNeuroimaging of a treatment-resistant patient with schizophrenia revealed the existence of cerebral hemiatrophy. The association of schizophrenia with cerebral hemiatrophy has not previously been reported.ResultsNeuroimaging with X-ray computerised tomography showed marked reduction in the volume of the left cerebral hemisphere with secondary

MR Imaging of Cerebral Hemiatrophy

Journal of Computer Assisted Tomography, 1988
Computed tomography has been the procedure of choice in evaluation of cerebral hemiatrophy, particularly in those instances where plain radiographic studies of the skull are nondiagnostic. Our experience suggests that magnetic resonance (MR) can easily accomplish the same task.

Unilateral cerebral polymicrogyria with ipsilateral cerebral hemiatrophy

European Radiology, 2002
We evaluated six children in whom MR imaging showed unilateral cerebral polymicrogyria associated with ipsilateral cerebral atrophy and ipsilateral brain stem atrophy. The aim of this study was to clarify whether this disorder based on neuroimaging constitutes a new homogeneous clinical entity.

BRAIN TUMOR WITH IPSILATERAL CEREBRAL HEMIATROPHY

Journal of Computer Assisted Tomography, 1983
Brain tumors with secondary ipsilateral cerebral hemiatrophy are so rare that only seven cases have been reported in the literature. Three new cases are presented and the clinical findings in all 10 cases are reviewed. The diagnostic value of computed tomography (CT) is emphasized.

Expanding the Spectrum of Acquired Cerebral Hemiatrophy

Journal of Neuroimaging, 2005
The authors report a 50-year-old man with progressive left hemispheric atrophy, cognitive decline, infrequent seizures, and spells suggestive of complicated migraine. They discuss the association between migraine and cerebral hemiatrophy and suggest that the spectrum of acquired cerebral hemiatrophy may be broader than what has been commonly recognized.

Cerebral Hemiatrophy – Correlation of Human with Animal Experimental Data

Pediatric Neurosurgery, 1988
We report the neuropathologic findings in a 63-year-old white male with a history of birth asphyxia, cerebral palsy, seizures and mild mental retardation in conjunction with similar brain pathologic findings in animal models of perinatal asphyxia.

[Sudden death in cerebral hemiatrophy].

Zeitschrift fur Rechtsmedizin. Journal of legal medicine, 1987
Hemiatrophia cerebri is a rare disease, and the etiology and pathogenesis remain unclear in most cases. In the present case, the marked hemiatrophy of the brain in a 19-year-old patient who died suddenly is attributed to encephalitis during early childhood and subsequent prolonged seizures.
