Symmetrical 'vasogenic' brain oedema.
Low attenuation of the cerebral white matter occurs with oedema and demyelination. When unilateral or asymmetrical it is usually due to a tumour, granuloma or abscess. The nidus responsible for the vasogenic oedema can be demonstrated after contrast enhancement. Bilateral demyelination occurs especially with viral infections such as herpes simplex encephalitis and progressive multifocal leukoen...

He was breast fed for two months and then reared on dried milk. On examination at the age of 6 weeks symmetrical pitting oedema of both feet extending a short distance up the legs was present.

متن کاملVasogenic Brain Edema Formation
Brain edema (BE) research lacks quantitative regional methods. We modified the method of Pappius and McCann (1969), who used radioactive iodinated P serum albumin (R1SA) as a label for vasogenic BE fluid. To correct for intravascular plasma volume we used Cr^ labelled red blood cells and calculated equivalent extravascular plasma volume (EVPV). The modified RISA method was compared with a stand...
متن کاملDiffusion changes suggesting predominant vasogenic oedema during partial status epilepticus
Diffusion-weighted imaging (DWI) has demonstrated a focal area of cytotoxic oedema during partial status epilepticus (PSE). However, vasogenic oedema related to the breakdown of the blood-brain-barrier (BBB) and ictal hyperperfusion could be the predominant DWI findings in the epileptogenic area during PSE. We report a case of PSE with ictal aphasia, right hemiparesis, and repetitive focal moto...
متن کاملRemitting seronegative symmetrical synovitis with pitting oedema
Remitting seronegative symmetrical synovitis with pitting oedema (RS3PE) is a rare rheumatologic condition frequently missed but easily treated. We describe a case of RS3PE and explore the literature surrounding this arthritis.
