Abstract

Meningioma is an intracranial tumor that generally involves meninges. This tumor canbe found along the dura layers at the skull base. Meningioma has vast vascularization from thearteries near dura attachment. Pre-operative embolization technique is an effective strategy toprevent intra-operative complications and better outcomes. The patient was a 24 year-oldwoman who has been complaining of headaches since 2 months ago. The CT Scan resulted in a12 x 9 x 7 cm isodense mass in the left temporoparietal enhanced homogenously by contrast.Pre-operative embolization was performed on the tumor feeding artery as a strategy to preventintra-operative blood loss. A left frontotemporosphenoidal craniotomy was performed 10 daysafter embolization to remove the tumor. A complete resection was successfully achieved withless intraoperative blood loss and without complication. The pathology examination resulted inmeningotheliomatous meningioma. A follow-up picture showed no recurrent tumor afterresection and the patient had no symptoms and neurological deficits until 6 months after thesurgery. In conclusion, meningioma is a common intracranial tumor with a lot of blood supply.However, tumor resection can be safely and efficaciously performed with good pre-operativestrategy.Keywords: brain tumor, embolization, meningioma, resection, skullbase

Abstract

Tuberculous spondylitis is a chronic infectious disease caused by Mycobacteriumtuberculosis on the vertebral bone. Involved less than 3% of all cases of TB, but the incidencevaries around the world, and is associated with the quality of public health and socioeconomicconditions.The purpose of this study is to investigate the presurgical aspects of nutrition inpatients with tuberculous spondylitis. A total of 39 consecutive patients between January 2011-December 2012 were evaluated retrospectively. All patients diagnosed with spondylitistuberculousis and treated with decompression, stabilization and fusion. All patients had beendiagnosed with Spondylitis tuberculousis based on history taking, physical examination,laboratory finding and MRI. Our study showed that of all subjects, ten male patients and eightfemale patients had cervical (n=1), thoracic (n=15), and lumbar (n=2) tuberculousspondylitis.The average age of the patients was 32.83 ± 12.25 (17-56) years old. The averagepreoperative body mass index (BMI) was 16.67 ± 1.2 kg / m2, albumin levels 3.23 ± 0.21 g / dl,total protein level 6.2 ± 0.34 g/dL. These were lower than normal value. We conclude thattuberculous spondylitis patients experience nutritional deficiencies presurgically andnutritional support should be considered pre-operatively.Keywords: Mycobacterium tuberculosis, nutritional state, presurgical aspect,tuberculousspondylitis
