Astrocytoma in the Third Ventricle and Hypothalamus Presenting with Parkinsonism
Parkinsonism secondary to intracranial mass lesions usually results from compression or distortion of the basal ganglia. Secondary parkinsonism due to midbrain infiltration or compression is rare and generally associated with other neurologic signs caused by pyramidal tract and/or cranial nerve involvement. We report a case of 30-year-old woman in whom mild parkinsonism was the major clinical manifestation of an astrocytoma in the anterior third ventricle and hypothalamus. She underwent surgical resection, ventriculoperitoneal shunt and radiation therapy. All symptoms of parkinsonism were completely recovered 3 months after the treatment. Brain tumors can be manifested only by the symptoms of parkinsonism. This case emphasizes the significance of neuroimaging in the evaluation of parkinsonism
Epitheliotropic cutaneous lymphoma (mycosis fungoides) in a dog
A seven-year-old castrated male Yorkshire terrier dog was presented for a recurrent skin disease. Erythematous skin during the first visit progressed from multiple plaques to patch lesions and exudative erosion in the oral mucosa membrane. Biopsy samples were taken from erythematous skin and were diagnosed with epitheliotropic T cell cutaneous lymphoma by histopathology and immunochemical stain. In serum chemistry, the dog had a hypercalcemia (15.7 mg/dl) and mild increased alkaline phosphatase (417 U/l). Immunohistochemistry was performed to detect parathyroid hormone-related peptide (PTH-rP) in epitheliotropic cutaneous lymphoma tissues but the neoplastic cells were not labeled with anti-PTH-rP antibodies. The patient was treated with prednisolone and isotretinoin. However, the dog died unexpectedly
Transmural Migration of Surgical Sponge Evacuated by Defecation: Mimicking an Intraperitoneal Gossypiboma
The spontaneous defecation of the surpical retained sponge is very rare. Here, we report a case of migrating surgical sponge that was retained in the colon and it was evacuated by defecation
Charge-spin correlation in van der Waals antiferromagenet NiPS3
Strong charge-spin coupling is found in a layered transition-metal
trichalcogenide NiPS3, a van derWaals antiferromagnet, from our study of the
electronic structure using several experimental and theoretical tools:
spectroscopic ellipsometry, x-ray absorption and photoemission spectroscopy,
and density-functional calculations. NiPS3 displays an anomalous shift in the
optical spectral weight at the magnetic ordering temperature, reflecting a
strong coupling between the electronic and magnetic structures. X-ray
absorption, photoemission and optical spectra support a self-doped ground state
in NiPS3. Our work demonstrates that layered transition-metal trichalcogenide
magnets are a useful candidate for the study of correlated-electron physics in
two-dimensional magnetic material.Comment: 6 pages, 3 figur
