Combined stereotactic and peripheral surgical approach for spasmodic torticollis.

Thalamotomy with or without pallidotomy and peripheral denervation, if necessary, was performed in 14 cases of spasmodic torticollis or other late dystonias. Of 4 bilateral procedures, 2 had a good result, in 1 there was little change and in another the patient remained with a pseudobulbar syndrome, the only complication in this group. 1 patient only required peripheral denervation with a good result. Of the 9 patients who underwent unilateral thalamotomy, with or without pallidotomy, the result was excellent in 6 and good in 2 others, but in 4 of these 8 patients peripheral denervation was also performed.

Globus Pallidus↗

[Inflammatory granuloma of the face with a malignant course. Atypical Hodgkin's disease (author's transl)].

A case of Hodgkin's disease beginning in the skin of the face with local lymph node involvement is reported. This was a lymphogranulomatous form without characteristic Reed-Sternberg cells in skin biopsy specimens, rendering the diagnosis difficult. There was a combination of granulomatous inflammation, plaques of necrosis and lesions of fibrinoid necrosis in the vessel walls. This form entered the classification of clinical Stage IV, with its associated serious prognosis.
