SISCOM hyperperfusion cluster and MRI-visible FDL in a noninvasivepresurgical evaluation with concordant data may suffice to proceed toepilepsy surgery aimed at removing the MRI-visible FDL and the partof the hyperperfusion cluster within and immediately surrounding theFDL.GOFFIN J.: Complications of cervical disc arthroplasty. Semin. SpineSurg., 2006; 18: 87-98.To date, reported complications with cervical disc replacement havenot been numerous. However, the clinical experience is still limitedboth from the perspective of number of cases and duration of followup.As a consequence, likely failure is also contemplated in this article.There are a number of absolute and relative contra-indications forartificial disc surgery in the cervical spine. The intraoperative risks arenot terribly different from those known from anterior discectomy andfusion. Malpositioning of the prosthesis may be due to procedurerelatedor surgeon-related problems and might lead to short-term orlong-term failures. Early postoperative displacement may be avoidedby initial bone-interplant interface stability. Besides other factors,intermediate term postoperative loss of motion may be due to thedevelopment of paravertebral ossification, an issue that still needsmore investigation. From a theoretical viewpoint, long term weardebris formation might lead to loosening of the prosthesis; however,no corresponding case reports have been reported yet.HEYE S., MALEUX G., VAN LOON J., WILMS G.: Symptomatic stenosisof the carvernous portion of the internal carotid artery due to anirresectable medial sphenoid wing meningioma: treatment byendovascular stent placement. AJNR, 2006; 27(7): 1532-1534.A 48-year-old woman, with right-sided proptosis and decreased visualacuity, presented with acute left sensorimotor deficit. Recent ischemiain the right posterior watershed area was found on CT and MRimaging, as well as a right-sided medial sphenoid wing meningiomacausing high-grade stenotic encasement of the cavernous portion ofthe right internal carotid artery. Because the patient was symptomaticand complete resection of the meningioma was impossible, thestenosis was successfully treated with a balloon-expanding stent.42
MAAS A., MURRAY G., HENNEY III H., KASSEM N., LEGRAND V.,MANGELUS M., MUIZELAAR J.P., STOCCHETTI N., KNOLLER N.:Efficacy and safety of dexanabinol in severe traumatic brain injury:results of a phase III randomised, placebo-controlled, clinical trial.Lancet Neurol., 2006; 5: 38-45.Background: Traumatic brain injury is a major cause of death anddisability. We sought to assess the safety and efficacy of dexanabinol,a synthetic cannabinoid analogue devoid of psychotropic activity, insevere traumatic brain injury.Methods: 861 patients with severe traumatic brain injury admitted to86 specialist centres from 15 countries were included in a multi-centre,placebo-controlled, phase III trial. Patients were randomised to receivea single intravenous 150 mg dose of dexanabinol or placebo within 6h of injury. The primary outcome was the extended Glasgow outcomescale assessed at 6 months, with the point of dichotomisation intounfavourable versus favourable outcome differentiated by baselineprognostic risk. Prespecified subgroup analyses were defined by injuryseverity, recruitment rate, and time to dosing. Secondary analysisincluded control of intracranial pressure and quality of life. Analysiswere prespecified in the protocol and the statistical analysis plan. Thisstudy is registered with ClinicalTrials.gov, number NCT00129857.Findings: 846 patients were included in the efficacy analysis. Theextended Glasgow outcome scale at 6 months did not differ betweengroups; 215 (50%) patients in the dexanabinol group and 214 (51%)patients in the placebo group had an unfavourable outcome (oddsratio for a favourable response 1.04; 95% CI 0.79-1.36).Improvements in the control of intracranial pressure or quality of lifewere not recorded and subgroup analysis showed no indication ofdifferential treatment effects. Dexanabinol was not associated withhepatic, renal, or cardiac toxic effects.Interpretation: Dexanabinol is safe, but is not efficacious in thetreatment of traumatic brain injury.43
