Recurrent Intracerebral Haematomas Due to Amyloid Angyopathy after Lyodura Transplantation in Childhood [PDF]

Neurology International
The number of published cases of presumed iatrogenic cerebral amyloid angiopathy (iCAA) due to the transmission of amyloid β during neurosurgery is slowly rising. One of the potential ways of transmission is through a cadaveric dura mater graft (LYODURA)

Iatrogenic Cerebral Amyloid Angiopathy in Patients Treated With Cadaveric Dura Mater During Childhood Neurosurgery: A Retrospective Cohort Study. [PDF]

Eur J Neurol
ABSTRACT Background Iatrogenic cerebral amyloid angiopathy (iCAA) is a recently identified clinico‐neuroradiological syndrome associated with medical procedures, particularly neurosurgical treatments involving cadaveric dura mater (e.g., Lyodura). iCAA can manifest as intracerebral hemorrhages, focal seizures, and cognitive impairment, with the risk ...

Idiopathic spinal cord herniation with postoperative paraplegia-A case report. [PDF]

Clin Case Rep, 2023
Key clinical message Spinal cord herniation is an uncommon diagnosis. There should be a high index of suspicion to diagnose spinal cord herniation when a patient presents with incomplete neurological deficits. Surgical repair of the hernia can have postoperative complications with new neurological deficits and they should be considered during the ...

Surgical Treatment of Radiation-Induced Late-Onset Scalp Wound in Patients Who Underwent Brain Tumor Surgery: Lessons from a Case Series. [PDF]

Biomed Res Int, 2022
Objective. The management of late‐onset scalp wounds following irradiation is troublesome, especially in patients with a surgical history of intracranial neoplasms. It, insidiously, starts with wound dehiscence or discharge and never heals spontaneously without appropriate surgical treatment.

Iatrogenic cerebral amyloid angiopathy 30 years after childhood cadaveric dura mater transplantation: a case report [PDF]

BMC Neurology
Background Cerebral amyloid angiopathy (CAA) is rarely observed in young individuals. We herein report a case involving a 39-year-old man who underwent cadaveric dura mater (LYODURA) transplantation in childhood and subsequently developed repeated ...

Iatrogenic cerebral amyloid angiopathy and Alzheimer's disease co-pathology. [PDF]

Ann Clin Transl Neurol
Abstract Iatrogenic cerebral amyloid angiopathy, a disease caused by contact with neurosurgical material or human growth hormone contaminated by beta‐amyloid peptide (Aβ), has a prion‐like transmission mechanism. We present a series of three patients under 55 years of age who underwent cranial surgery.

A case of iatrogenic transmission of vascular Aß40 amyloid [PDF]

Alzheimers Dement
Abstract Background Iatrogenic cerebral amyloid angiopathy (iCAA) has recently been reported in relatively young adults who received cadaveric dural grafts or neurosurgery during childhood. More than 80 cases of iCAA have been reported; however, insufficient detail regarding Aß40 amyloid transmission was provided in these reports.

Cerebral Amyloid Angiopathy-Related Inflammation in Iatrogenic Cerebral Amyloid Angiopathy. [PDF]

Eur J Neurol
ABSTRACT Introduction Cerebral amyloid angiopathy (CAA) related inflammation (CAA‐ri) is considered to be a distinct syndrome caused by an inflammatory response to amyloid‐β deposition in the walls of small leptomeningeal and cortical vessels in patients with sporadic CAA.
