Abstract

Introduction

Hydrocephalus secondary to intraspinal tumors is a well-known but rare condition since about 1% of patients with spinal cord tumors have various degrees of hydrocephalus at initial presentation.

Discussion

The mechanism of development of intracranial hypertension and hydrocephalus in patients with spinal cord tumor is not exactly known. The problematic aspects of this condition, with regard to clinical presentation and pathophysiology, are discussed and the relevant literature is reviewed. This uncommon association should always be kept in mind in the differential diagnosis of hydrocephalus of unknown etiology for three main reasons: the possibility of neurological deterioration if the patient is shunted prior tumor removal, the possibility to treat the hydrocephalus without shunting by simply removing the tumor, and the possible role of hydrocephalus as an early sign of intracranial metastasis in patients previously operated upon for removal of intramedullary gliomas. Due to the very slow evolution of the disease, a careful and close clinical and neuroradiological follow-up are essential for many years afterward. The presence of intracranial hypertension in a patient previously operated for a spinal tumor should be considered and investigated as an early sign of neoplastic intracranial seeding.

S3-Leitlinie „Diagnostik und Therapie des Karpaltunnelsyndroms“

Karpaltunnelsyndrom BDC Leitlinien Webinare
CME: 2 Punkte

Das Karpaltunnelsyndrom ist die häufigste Kompressionsneuropathie peripherer Nerven. Obwohl die Anamnese mit dem nächtlichen Einschlafen der Hand (Brachialgia parästhetica nocturna) sehr typisch ist, ist eine klinisch-neurologische Untersuchung und Elektroneurografie in manchen Fällen auch eine Neurosonografie erforderlich. Im Anfangsstadium sind konservative Maßnahmen (Handgelenksschiene, Ergotherapie) empfehlenswert. Bei nicht Ansprechen der konservativen Therapie oder Auftreten von neurologischen Ausfällen ist eine Dekompression des N. medianus am Karpaltunnel indiziert.

S2e-Leitlinie „Distale Radiusfraktur“

Radiusfraktur BDC Leitlinien Webinare
CME: 2 Punkte

Das Webinar beschäftigt sich mit Fragen und Antworten zu Diagnostik und Klassifikation sowie Möglichkeiten des Ausschlusses von Zusatzverletzungen. Die Referenten erläutern, welche Frakturen konservativ behandelt werden können und wie. Das Webinar beantwortet die Frage nach aktuellen operativen Therapiekonzepten: Welcher Zugang, welches Osteosynthesematerial? Auf was muss bei der Nachbehandlung der distalen Radiusfraktur geachtet werden?
