Intrathecal Baclofen in Tetanus.
Lancet, The, 1986Our understanding of the pathogenesis of tetanus stems from the end of the nineteenth century. In 1884 the transfer of the infective as well as toxic agent of tetanus infection was demonstrated in animals [10, 50]. Only a few years later tetanus bacilli were isolated from human victims [44, 64] and its toxin was characterized as the pathogenic link [29]

Neurosurgery Clinics of North America, 2004
Although the use of opioids for intrathecal anesthesia was first reported in 1901, it was not until 25 years ago that the first report of selective blockade of pain by spinal opioids was described. Since its beginning, the promise of selective analgesics derived from intraspinal administration has generated much development in the field of pain ...

Intrathecal Leucovorin After Intrathecal Methotrexate Overdose
Journal of Pediatric Hematology/Oncology, 1996Intrathecal methotrexate is a standard and important therapy in acute leukemia. Unfortunately, overdose is a well reported complication of this therapy. We report a fatal event secondary to intrathecal leucovorin.An 11-year-old boy with a 6-month history of treatment of acute lymphocytic leukemia received an "overdose" of 20 mg of intrathecal ...

Epidural, Intrathecal Pharmacokinetics, and Intrathecal Bioavailability of Ropivacaine
Anesthesia & Analgesia, 2007Ropivacaine is used by the epidural route for postoperative pain management with various neuraxial techniques. Given the widespread use of these techniques and the relative paucity of data on spinal disposition of local anesthetics, we evaluated through an experimental animal model, the spinal disposition of ropivacaine, allowing further studies of ...

THE DANGERS OF INTRATHECAL MEDICATION
JAMA: The Journal of the American Medical Association, 1949The intrathecal space is so frequently chosen for the administration of serums, drugs, antibiotics and anesthetic agents that it is sometimes forgotten that numerous serious and tragic sequelae have been reported following the use of this route. It therefore seems advisable to reemphasize the dangers which may ensue and critically to reevaluate the ...

Intrathecal methotrexate overdose
Acta Paediatrica, 1997We report two cases of intrathecal methotrexate overdose. A 3‐y‐old girl with acute lymphoblastic leukaemia and a 4‐y‐old boy with Burkitt's lymphoma were to receive an intrathecal injection of methotrexate after completion of intravenous methotrexate infusion. Instead of 12.5 mg, they both received a dose of 125 mg. Both children developed generalized
