Oblique muscle splitting incision for cervical laminotomy.

A muscle-splitting incision for cervical disc disease is described. It is based upon sound surgical principles. There have been no wound complications in the last 60 patients treated by the authors. Its most stringent demand is that the surgeon be familiar with the anatomical planes to be certain of the level which he wishes to explore.

Chromophobe adenoma and chiasmal syndrome without enlargement of the bony sella.

Four cases of chiasmal syndrome resulting from chromophobe adenoma with normal-sized sella turcica are reported. The predominantly suprasellar growth of these tumors was probably the result of a well-pneumatized sphenoid sinus and/or a congenitally deficient diaphragma sellae. In patients with chiasmal syndrome, a high suspicion of a surgically treatable lesion must be maintained in spite of radiographs showing a normal-sized sella. In spite of the difficulties presented by normal variations, subtle findings should be searched for on the plain films and given additional weight in the patient with a chiasmal syndrome. An aggressive diagnostic work-up, including pneumoencephalography with thin-section tomography, should be pursued in all such patients before accepting some alternate explanation, such as demyelinating disease, for visual impairment.
