Abstract:
:Disulfiram in generally accepted maintenance doses in alcoholism may produce a rather severe polyneuropathy. In addition to the 39 literature cases, 5 personal patients were examined. Detailed clinical findings are given and the frequent permanent sequelae are emphasized. In 2 patients sural nerve biopsies were studied (including electromicroscopical examination) revealing a primary axonal lesion. In the treatment of alcohol addiction one should be aware of this complication.

杂志文章abstract::Glioblastoma multiforme (GBM) often occurs in the supratentorial white matter including corpus callosum. However, spinal leptomeningeal metastasis in cases of supratentorial GBM has been reported to be rare and there is usually a long interval between the cerebral lesion and the spinal seeding. We report here a case o...
