Abstract:
:A case of a girl with popliteal webbing associated with limited extension of the knee, flexion contractures of the third, fourth, and fifth digits, hypothrophia of leg musculature, and absent tendon reflexes in the legs is reported. Between 19 months and 6 years of age, the digital contractures, popliteal webbing, and limitation of knee extension progressively improved. This is the first reported instance of this combination of signs and the first report of regression of some of these physical findings.

杂志文章abstract::Two cases of endosellar meningiomas are presented. The clinical and radiological picture is not always sufficiently specific to distinguish meningiomas from other types of sellar lesions, but pre-operative diagnosis is of fundamental importance in choosing the best surgical approach. In both cases, the transsphenoidal...
