Value of biplane computerized tomography in agenesis of the corpus callosum. A case history.

A case of agenesis of the corpus callosum is described in a 21-year-old male, presenting with epilepsy. Computerized tomographic (CT) scanning was performed using axial and coronal sections. The diagnosis of agenesis was suggested by the presence of an enormous third ventricle, the coronal sections gave the definite proof. In our opinion, biplane CT scan appearances in this condition are characteristic and former investigations (PEG, cerebral angiography) become unnecessary.

Preoperative localization of enlarged parathyroid glands: indication for and criteria in the evaluation of venous sampling.

The results of 45 non-selective and 26 selective preoperative localization examinations in patients with primary hyperparathyroidism are compared with the findings at operation. First operations are distinguished from re-operations. On the basis of personal observations and data from the literature, indications for preoperative localization examination are established. Criteria are formulated for the evaluation of the result of preoperative localization examination as correct, erroneous or inconclusive.

Pre-operative localization of parathyroid adenomas or parathyroid hyperplasia by means of venous sampling.

Pre-operative localization of parathyroid tumours on primary hyperparathyroidism is discussed. 20 patients were examined in this way. Of the 15 patients who were operated on, the pre-operative findings of 12 correspond with the results of operations and histological examinations. These results correspond with what is known from other publications. Preoperative localization by means of venous sampling is possible in a large number of cases. The examination is especially important in patients with previous neck exploration.
