Central neurogenic pulmonary edema: with a review of its pathogenesis and treatment.
One of the unusual signs of sudden increase in intracranial pressure is central neurogenic pulmonary edema. This pulmonary edema produces a capillary-aveolar block resulting in hypoxia complicating the underlying neurologic condition. Good success in treating this problem has been obtained with controlled ventilation and positive end expiratory pressure respiration.
Cervical spondylolisthesis.
Cervical spondylolisthesis is a rare, unusual finding in patients with neck pain. Cervical pain without neurological deficit is most often seen with this abnormality. It usually involves a defect in the pedicle of the sixth cervical vertebra. Anterior interbody cervical fusion is recommended as the treatment of choice.
