Cerebral commissurotomy for control of intractable seizures.

Cerebral commissurotomy or the "split-brain" procedure may be a valuable adjunct to anticonvulsants for the control of seizures in people whose epilepsy cannot be relieved by anticonvulsants alone, and who are not candidate for the standard methods of surgery. Corpus callosotomy, a revised form of the usual division of many commissures, is a safer operation and appears to be equally effective. The complex clinical aspects of cure and treatment are emphasized.

Leishmania infecting man and wild animals in Saudi Arabia. 7. Partial protection of mice against Leishmania major by prior infection with L. arabica.

A survey of inbred mouse strains showed that strain C3H/he was the most comparable to man in respect of its susceptibility to Leishmania major and the subsequent healing of lesions produced by this organism. L. arabica proved to have a lower virulence than L. major and prior inoculation with the former resulted in a decrease of the lesion sizes following subsequent L. major challenge. Moreover, L. major lesions that did develop in mice previously inoculated with L. arabica generally healed faster.
