In the microsurgical dissection of the lateral wall of the cavernous sinus, interrelationships of its nerves have been studied in 100 Korean adult half heads. And in the serial coronal section of the cavernous sinus in 10 half heads, the structures of the lateral wall have been studied. The relationships of the nerves of the lateral wall were classified to five types according to the course of the trochlear nerve. Each length of the Parkinson's triangle and the angle between trochlear and ophthalmic nerves were measured. There data were compared with those of the other races. The lateral wall of the sinus was composed of two layers. The orientation of the fibers of the deep layer was variable in regions. The oculomotor nerve was enveloped with sheath extended from dura mater and it was connected with deep layer of the lateral wall. The trochlear nerve was enveloped with sheath formed y division of innermost part of the deep layer. The venous sinus was found between the two layers of the lateral wall. The neurosurgical significance of the lateral wall of the sinus was discussed.

BACKGROUND: Infection with respiratory virus has been shown to exacerbate asthma in humans. However, the role of a respiratory virus in the pathogenesis of chronic asthma and/or wheezing in young children has not been clearly defined. The objective of this study was to determine whether respiratory virus infections such as RSV, and influenza A virus are related to the productions of IL-11, IFN-gamma, and ECP levels in nasopharyngeal secretions. METHOD: We compared IL-11, IFN-gamma, and ECP levels in nasopharyngeal secretions from 38 non-asthmatic wheezing children with viral infections (RSV in 21 children, influenza A virus in 17 children), and 16 non-asthmatic healthy children who were included as the controls. IL-11, and IFN-gamma levels were analysed by ELISA. ECP concentrations were measured by monoclonal antibody-based fluorometric assay. RESULT: RSV infection in children induced a greater release of IL-11 in nasopharyngeal secretions than in influenza A virus infection, and in the controls. The release of IFN-gamma levels in nasopharyngeal secretions from children with influenza A virus infection was significantly higher than in nasopharyngeal secretions from children with RSV. ECP levels of subjects with viral infection were significantly higher than in control children. CONCLUSION: This study demonstrated that RSV is a potent inducer of IL-11 elaboration in nasal epithelium and that IL-11 is an important mediator in the pathogenesis of RSV infection. Increased IFN-gamma production in response to the influenza A virus infection may be related to effective Th1 responses.

Computed tomographic findings were analyzed in 46 patients with hypertensive putaminal hemorrhage accompainied by hemiparesis. It has been important prognostic index whether to involve or not to involve posterior limb of internal capsule. To study the reason for this, the relationship between the extent of a hematoma and the level ar which the pyramidal tract was destroyed was investigated. From the consideration of the process of destruction of the pyramidal tract by a hematoma, it seemed that computed tomographic findings at the level of the body of the lateral ventricle rather than at the prognosis of hemiparesis.

The authors analized the 98 cases of cervical spine injuries without fracture or dislocation by hyperflexion/hyperextension of the neck. The peak incidence of the age was in the second to fourth decades(69.4%). There was a male preponderance with a sex ratio of. 1.8 : 1. Sources of trauma were motor vehicle accident, object falling on and motorcycle accident in the order of frequency. The common mechanisms of injury were flexion-extension, extension and flexion injury in the order of frequency. There were 10 cases of cervical cord injury without fracture or dislocation and operative management was given in 6 cases of them. The most common preexisting disease was congenital cervical stenosis. Surgical modality such as laminectomy, laminoplasty and anterior decompressive procedure made them improved. The authors discuss the mechanism of injury and surgical management of the patients with cervical cord injury in the absence of concomittent fracture or dislocation.

PURPOSE: To recanalize the occlusive lesion of superficial femoral artery at origin site by retrograde approach via popliteal artery. MATERIALS AND METHODS: 15 patients, who were poor surgical candidates due to coronary artery disease and who had severe occlusive lesion of superficial femoral artery close to its origin with good distal runoffs to popliteal artery, were selected. Patients were all~men and range of age were from 53 years to 66 years (mean age:63 years). Range of lesion length were from 15cm to 30cm (mean length:22.4cm). Localization of popliteal artery was done with Doppler stethoscope or "road-map" DSA. The method of recanalization were transluminal endarterectomy catheter (TEC), TEC and angioplasty, thrombolysoangioplasty (TLA). RESULT: Retrograde puncture of popliteal artery were done in 15 patients successfully. TEC & PTA was performed in 9 patients, TEC only in 2 patients, and TLA & PTA in 2 patients. During the follow-up period of 5 months to 2 years reocclusion did not occurr in 10 patients except for 1 patient with poor cardiac output in whom it occured 1 day later. Remained 4 patients were lost in follow up. Any neurologic or vascular complication did not occur. CONCLUSION: Retrograde approach of superficial fernoral artery via popliteal artery in patients with difficult vascular intervention by common method provides a useful, alternative recanalization method.
