The value of computed tomography in tuberous sclerosis.

The computed tomography (CT) findings in 5 patients with tuberous sclerosis are presented. CT is recommended as a rapid, non-invasive, easily repeated investigative procedure for patients with clinically suspected tuberous sclerosis and epilepsy of unknown origin.

CT findings with cerebral hemiatrophy.

CT examination of 71 patients with cerebral hemiatrophy revealed dilatation of the ventricle and low density of the cortex of the involved side in all cases. Thickening of the calvarium and a shift of the midline were found in about half of the patients.

Computerized tomographic findings in mucoceles of the frontal and ethmoid sinuses.

Computerised tomography (CT) is a valuable aid in the investigation of diseases of the paranasal sinuses. Seven patients with surgically proven mucoceles of the frontal or ethmoid sinuses are presented. In each case, proptosis was the main presenting symptom. Although the diagnosis was suspected on plain skull radiographs, CT confirmed the benign nature of the lesion and gave an accurate display of its extent.

Computed tomographic findings in intracranial meningioma.

The computed tomographic findings in 54 patients with intracranial meningioma are presented. Computed tomography is a rapid, noninvasive and highly accurate method of diagnosing intracranial meningioma and, in most cases, the findings are specific for this tumor.

The postoperative myelogram.

Myelographic changes after spinal operation are often difficult to interpret especially with regard to the differentiation between arachnoiditis and recurrent disc prolapse. The radiological appearances using iophendylate (Myodil) and the distinguishing features are discussed and illustrated.

Choledochocele. A case report.

A case of a young man with a choledochocele is presented. The entity is rare and symptoms are usually nonspecific. Pre-operative diagnosis is often not made but is usually possible provided both barium study and cholangiography are performed. The clinical presentation and diagnosis are discussed.

Protean appearance of craniopharyngioma on computed tomography.

Craniopharyngiomas present a diverse appearance on computed tomography. Histological diagnosis is not always possible, but computed tomography is of great assistance in the delineation of the tumour as well as of the degree of associated hydrocephalus. Computed tomography also enables rapid non-invasive follow-up after surgery or radiotherapy, or both.

The computerised tomographic findings in paediatric orbital tumours.

Forty-two patients with histologically proven orbital tumours are presented. CT is of value in the pretreatment assessment and in delineating the extent of the orbital tumour. The surrounding bony destruction and intracranial extension are easily assessed. Post-treatment follow-up can be closely monitored using CT.

CT findings in retinoblastoma.

Computed tomographic (CT) findings in 38 patients with surgically proven retinoblastomas are described. CT is of value in accurately and rapidly assessing the extraocular and intracranial spread of clinically diagnosed retinoblastomas. This information is of prognostic value as patients with tumors that have spread beyond the confines of the globe have a life expectancy of only a few months. Calcification was present in 11 of 23 tumors confined to the globe, but was seen in only two of 15 tumors that had extended beyond the globe. Therefore, the presence of calcification may be a favorable prognostic sign.

Pneumatosis coli secondary to colonic obstruction. A case report.

A case of pneumatosis coli of the caecum and ascending colon with a closed loop obstruction secondary to carcinoma of the descending colon is presented. The caecum was grossly distended and impending rupture was diagnosed. It is postulated that complete transmural rupture of the caecum was prevented by partial decompression of caecal air into the bowel wall.

Value of the mandibular radiograph in familial polyposis coli.

Familial polyposis coli and Gardner's syndrome have identical colonic manifestations. Recent evidence has shown that both conditions are associated with occult osteomatous lesions in the mandible. We present 3 patients from 2 families with familial polyposis coli who, in addition to the colonic lesions, also had occult osteomatous mandibular lesions. The value and practical application of radiography of the mandible as an additional diagnostic aid in familial polyposis coli are emphasized.

Computed tomography in cranial tuberculosis.

Twelve patients with proven tuberculosis were studied by computed tomography. Three had tuberculomas and nine had tuberculous meningitis. Although a definite diagnosis is often not possible on CT, the method is of value in determining number, location and extent of lesions. In patients with tuberculous meningitis, CT is helpful in assessing the degree of hydrocephalus and in evaluating the effectiveness of antituberculous therapy.
