Couldwell, William T. | Cranioplasty with the Medpor porous polyethylene Flexblock implant | The authors describe the use of a porous polyethylene Flexblock implant for cosmetic cranioplasty. The implant may be used to cover any small- or medium-sized (< 8 cm) cranial defect, offering similar cosmetic results to standard alloplast cranioplasty while decreasing operation time. The porous i... | Cranioplasty; Medpor; Alloplast; Polyethylene; Skull defect | 1994 |

Couldwell, William T. | Posterior fossa brain tumors and arterial hypertension | Hypertension caused by arterial compression of the rostral ventrolateral medulla is well described. Much less information is available on the association between neurogenic hypertension and posterior fossa brain tumors. To date, multiple reports have supported the impression that a small subpopulat... | Posterior fossa tumors; Brain stem; Arterial hypertension; Essential hypertension; EHTN | 2006 |

Creel, Donnell J.; Leventhal, Audie G. | Retinal projections in tyrosinase-negative albino cats | Retinal projections were examined in two tyrosinase-negative albino cats using autoradiographic techniques. Cats from this colony have pink eyes; their retinal pigment epithelium, ciliary body, and iris epithelium are completely devoid of melanin pigment. Test breeding for five generations indicates... | Cats; Albinism; Vision; Autoradiography; Retina | 1982-07 |

Varner, Michael W.; Porter T. Flint | Risk of preterm birth across generations. | OBJECTIVE: To examine the risk of preterm birth for mothers who themselves were born before term. METHODS: Data were taken from a linked data base of birth certificates composed of two cohorts: 1) a parental cohort of women born between 1947 and 1957 and 2) their offspring born between 1970 and 1992... | Preterm mothers; Pregnancy; Premature; Risk | 1997-07 |

Dailey, Andrew T. | Guideline update for the performance of fusion procedures for degenerative disease of the lumbar spine. Part 8: Lumbar fusion for disc herniation and radiculopathy | Patients suffering from a lumbar herniated disc will typically present with signs and symptoms consistent with radiculopathy. They may also have low-back pain, however, and the source of this pain is less certain, as it may be from the degenerative process that led to the herniation. The surgical al... | | 2014-01-01 |

Schmidt, Meic H. | Minimally invasive thoracoscopic resection of paraspinal neurogenic tumors: technical case report | OBJECTIVE: The posterior mediastinum is a common location for benign neurogenic tumors. They are frequently asymptomatic but can present with local compressive or neurological symptoms. METHODS: Thoracoscopy is used increasingly over posterolateral thoracotomy for the removal of these lesions. RES... | | 2008-01-01 |

Dailey, Andrew T. | Sciatic nerve sarcoidosis: utility of magnetic resonance peripheral nerve imaging and treatment with radiation therapy | Sarcoidosis may involve both the central and peripheral nervous system, although peripheral nerve manifestations are usually seen late in the disease. In this report, the authors describe a case of sarcoidosis in a 22-year-old woman who presented with a foot drop. Although results of conventional lu... | Peripheral nerve imaging; Radiation therapy | 2004 |

Varner, Michael W. | Cerebral vasculopathies masquerading as eclampsia. | Obstetricians know that preeclampsia-eclampsia is a syndrome and is a final common pathway for multiple causes. It is also possible that other conditions, not always directly related to pregnancy, can mimic preeclampsia-eclampsia. One such entity is cerebral vasculopathy, an entity characterized b... | Cerebrovascular Disorders; Eclampsia; Puerperal Disorders | 2006-02 |
