[Function of the blood-cerebrospinal fluid barrier and selected biochemical cerebrospinal fluid components in senile dementias of various types].

Some selected CSF and serum components were determined in demental patients classified by the Hachinski test into vascular and primary-degenerative groups. As for the vascular group, the frequency distribution of the serum/CSF albumin ratios characterizing the barrier function corresponds to that of controls, in primary-degenerative cases, however, it is shifted to higher values. In vascular dementia higher CSF LAP activities pointing to actual cell damaging processes in the CNS were found. The concentrations of lactate and some trace metals in CSF and serum are not suitable for differential diagnostic purposes.

Intracranial dissecting aneurysm. Report of a case.

The case of a 47-year-old man who died one month after a history of paroxysmal occipital headaches, vertigo, vomiting, weakness, and sweating is presented. The death was due to a pontine softening caused by a subintimal dissecting aneurysm of the two vertebral, the basilar and the right posterior inferior cerebellar arteries. No etiological factor of the illness could be found. The clinical signs resembled those of a flap-valve tumor of the IIIrd ventricle.
