[Connections between the nucleus lateralis dorsalis of the thalamus and the limbic system in man. Study of 12 anatomo-clinical cases of vascular origin].

Lateralis dorsalis nucleus of thalamus belong to the limbic system of Papez more by its trigonal than cingular afferent pathways. Its parietal efferent pathways are probable, its cingular and trigonal ones possible but not proved. Neuropathologic studies provide informations to separate a latero-ventral part connected with parietal cortex and a mediodorsal part connected with limbic system.

A typical presenile dementia. Report of an anatomo-clinical case and review of the literature.

A clinico-pathological report is given of a case of dementia of frontal type with EEG changes, associated with a diffuse neuronal loss, subcortical gliosis and laminar spongiosis in the superficial part of the 2nd cortical layer. The authors discuss the cortical biopsy and the post-mortem findings in their case. They draw a comparison between their case an two conditions known as "progressive sub-cortical gliosis" and "Kraepelin's disease" which might be a single entity "atypical presenile dementia".

Cardiac papillary fibroelastoma: aA rare cause of ischemic stroke in the young.

Among etiologies of stroke in young adults, primary cardiac tumors are very rare. We report the case of a 37-year-old woman who was admitted for an ischemic stroke in the right middle cerebral artery region. Etiologic investigations revealed, after transthoracic and transesophageal echocardiography, an aortic valve tumor. Treatment was first medical with anticoagulation, then surgical. Histological examination showed a papillary fibroelastoma. After a review of the literature, the possible mechanisms of the ischemic event are discussed and lead to the conclusion that this tumor must be surgically excised, even if asymptomatic, because of recurrent ischemic complications responsible for myocardial infarction, stroke and sudden death.
