neurodegenerative diseases affecting motor neurons
14 April 2009Neurodegenerative diseases affecting motor neurons are a group of inherited or sporadic diseases that, in variable degrees of severity, affect:
lower motor neurons in the anterior horns of the spinal cord
lower motor neurons in certain cranial nerve motor nuclei (V, VII, IX, XII) but not those that control eye movements (III, IV, VI)
upper motor neurons (Betz cells) in the motor cortex
The disorders occur in all age groups, and the course of the illness is extremely variable, ranging (...) -
CNS localization of multiple myeloma
12 March 2009Multiple myeloma is characterized by the presence of neoplastic proliferating plasma cells; the tumor is generally restricted to the bone marrow. In less than 1 % of the cases a CNS involvement is observed including localized intraparenchymal lesions, solitary cerebral plasmocytoma or CNS myelomatosis (= presence of monoclonal cells in the CSF).
The etiology of CNS infiltrating multiple myeloma is unknown and the hypothesis includes a continuous spread from eroded lytic skull lesions or (...) -

They are mainly consisting of highly malignant large CD20-positive B lymphoblasts or centroblasts respectively, and multifocal or diffuse neoplastic infiltration of the brain parenchyma.
The diagnosis typically rests on radiographic features, detection of EBV (...) -
