[Lumbosacral dysraphia and "long spinal cord" of delayed appearance (9 cases)].

Urinary disorders, deformities of the feet, and sensory of trophic disturbances appearing during, or increasing in severity at adolescence, were observed in 9 patients. In seven cases there appeared to be an abnormality of the teguments of the lumbosacral region, and in all cases, as shown by straight radiological examination of a spina bifida of L5 or S1, a sacral dehiscence and wide sacral canal, and a subjacent nervous tissue abnormality was suspected. Radiculography showed the presence of a "long spinal cord" terminating in the sacrum by a tumor mass. Examination of this mass in the seven operated cases demonstrated that the tumor was an intradural lipoma with a wedge-shaped penetration into the end of the medulla, fixing the cord in the sacrococcygial region, in the absence of the filum terminale and cauda equina. The etiology of this "long spinal cord" is discussed, and it appears to be the consequence of a dysraphia, which is also the cause of the lipoma. Mechanical factors appear later and produce neurological signs.

[Prognostic importance of the study of venous drainage in cerebral arteriovenous aneurysms].

The authors analysed in particular the venous drainage of 370 arteriovenous aneurysms operated during 20 years in neurosurgery at Lille's Hospital. If in many cases the study in details of the different arterious pedicles take an important place in the discussion of the indications and operative technics; in other cases a bad estimate of the interest of careful study of veins can be at the beginning of great disappointments. Also the authors insist on the necessary study of the venous system in totality by seeing after agenesia of some passages, the respective drainage of the angioma and the brain, the existence of a saturation venous phenomenon. The analysis in details of the anatomical and functional distribution of the venous drainage in these malformations can be taken into consideration in the operative decision. The analysis of results in ten preference observations suggest that it is an important element in the arteriovenous aneurisms' evolution and in the final prognostic.

[Inter thalamo-trigonal approach to the third ventricle (author's transl)].

The exploration and surgical treatment of the lesions of the 3rd ventricle may be carried out without sectioning the anterior columns of the trigonum. The body of the trigonum and the choroid tissue are lifted sometimes at the cost only of the sectioning of the thalamostriated vein. The absence of mnesic trouble particularly in benign tumours of the third ventricle is the essential advantage of same. Access is very much wider particularly for the posterior part of third ventricle.

The lateral recess of the fourth ventricle examined with a water-soluble contrast medium.

Difficulties still remain in the routine radiologic examination of the lateral recesses of the fourth ventricle. Ventriculography with the direct introduction of water-soluble contrast medium into the third ventricle has improved the results. The normal anatomic and radiologic appearances and pathologic changes of the lateral recesses are discussed.
