Third cranial nerve palsy caused by gummatous neurosyphilis: MR findings.

The clinical and MR findings in an unusual case of gummatous neurosyphilis are reported. A 44-year-old woman suffering from diplopia and right-sided headaches was admitted. Physical examination and routine laboratory parameters were normal except for a third-nerve palsy. MR images revealed a contrast-enhancing lesion of the upper brain stem and third cranial nerve. Differential diagnosis included neuroma of the third cranial nerve, as well as neurosarcoidosis and other inflammatory processes. Serologic tests and lumbar puncture revealed the presence of active syphilis. After intravenous treatment with penicillin G, follow-up MR examinations showed diminishing size of the lesion with its complete resolution within 3 months.

[Evaluation of the diagnostic efficiency of tridimensional reconstruction with nuclear magnetic resonance. Report of a case of nasal sinus carcinoma].

In the past decades the development of magnetic resonance imaging has significantly increased the importance of diagnostic imaging of head and neck lesions. The standard imaging method is base on two-dimensional slices. Recently 3D reconstruction has been established as new imaging method in various medical fields. In the present study we analyse the diagnostic value of the reconstruction method in a case of carcinoma of the maxillary sinus. The results indicate that this technique might be of significant clinical importance for preoperative planning in the case of certain tumors located close to the skull base.
