Vertebral Compression Fracture and Osteoporosis
December 1st 2005No double-blind, randomized controlled studies of the effectiveness of vertebroplasty have been performed.

Pituitary Macroadenoma With Hemorrhage
September 14th 2005After being hit on the head during a football game, a 16-year-old experienced several seconds of complete vision loss in the left eye. A few days later, he noticed the onset of blurred vision in the same eye, which progressively worsened over several weeks.
Posterior Subcapsular Cataract
September 14th 2005Dull, constant, bifrontal headaches were the chief complaint of a 28-year-old woman who was referred for her first ophthalmologic examination. She had no specific ocular symptoms, but her primary care physician wanted to rule out an ophthalmologic cause for the headaches.
Prolactinoma in a 40-Year-Old Woman
September 14th 2005A 40-year-old woman with a history of amenorrhea complained of recent headaches and galactorrhea for the last 6 months. A neurologic work-up revealed bitemporal hemianopia, and a radiograph of the skull suggested an enlarged sella turcica. A large pituitary adenoma disclosed by an MRI and a serum prolactin level of 360 µg/L led to a diagnosis of prolactinoma.
Cerebellar Blastomycotic Abscesses
September 14th 2005A comatose 29-year-old woman was brought to the emergency department. Her family reported that she had been well until 4 days earlier, when headache and fever developed. She went to another hospital at that time and was told she had an abscessed tooth. She was given erythromycin, and the tooth was extracted the following day. The patient's headache and fever worsened; a sore throat also developed, and a rash appeared on her trunk, arms, and legs. The family denied any HIV risk factors, unusual medical history, recent travel, and exposure to persons with infectious diseases.
Giant Cavernous Sinus Aneurysm
September 14th 2005Increasingly frequent headaches and blurred vision had affected a 74-year-old woman for several months. Double vision, which initially occurred only when the patient looked to the right, had started to affect vision when she looked straight ahead. Her eye movements when looking to the left were normal; the right eye, however, did not go beyond midline when looking to the right. Upward and downward gaze were not affected.

September 14th 2005A 76-year-old woman had a 40-year history of rheumatoid arthritis (RA). She had repeatedly refused treatment with disease-modifying drugs, including methotrexate. Nodules began to develop 15 years after the initial diagnosis; they recurred after surgical removal.
