[Evolution of motor nerve conduction and Hoffmann reflex in 100 patients with chronic renal failure treated by periodic hemodialysis (author's transl)].

The study of motor nerve conduction (MNC) and H. reflex was carried out on 100 chronic uraemic patients, fifty-four males and fourty-six females, treated by periodic hemodialysis. The MNCV is more frequently normal in females than in males. Periodic hemodialysis improves MNCV but sometimes uraemic neuropathy appears with hemodialysis. The MNCV is oftener improved than H. reflex latency. Results are neither significantly improved by a greater number of hemodialysis seances nor in function of the different dialyzers. Any kidney activity does not modify the nerve conduction.

Coil embolization of a trigeminal-cavernous fistula.

A 53-year-old woman spontaneously incurred a right trigeminal artery-cavernous sinus fistula, manifested by an intracranial bruit and right sixth nerve palsy. This lesion was successfully managed by coil embolization via the transvenous and transarterial routes.
