Presentation of central nervous system (CNS) tumors in children is variable. The differences in the presentation of supratentorial, infratentorial, and spinal tumors are discussed in this chapter. The pathophysiology of increased intracranial pressure clinical features is also reviewed. As infants present...

Accordingly, they are supposed to activate cerebral endothelia to express an inflammatory phenotype, and induce immune molecules inglia cellsrequired for successful presentation of localautoantigens(Crosset ...
Some patients in addition have a motor impairment not readily explained by a lesion in the peripheral nervous system. Edema at the time of presentation or at an earlier time point is a common feature. CRPS may be present in cases with (CRPS type II) or without a nerve lesion (CRPS type...
An even smaller subset of cases involves the central nervous system at the time of presentation. The authors report a unique case of diffuse large B-cell lymphoma with central nervous system involvement initially presenting with ophthalmic manifestations and altered mental status....
At the beginning of the study of the changes produced by the acquired immune deficiency syndrome (AIDS) in the nervous system, all complications were thought to be due exclusively to opportunistic infections. Indeed, the early paper by Snider et al (1983
There are numerous observations reporting that phagocytes expressing major histocompatibility complex (MHC) Class II molecules are associated with the central nervous system (CNS) in normal and pathological conditions. Although MHC Class II expression is necessary for antigen presentation to CD4 + T-cell...

Photographs of portmortem specimens add both variety and realism to the anatomical presentation. However, elimination of the sections of neurochemistry and neuropsychology make the title, Basic Neurology, inappropriate. The sections of neuroanatomy and neurophysiology remaining in the second edition are ...
The nervous system can be affected by many rheumatologic disorders. The involvements are different in various diseases. Some rheumatologic diseases have prominent nervous system features, e.g. SLE, while in others these are minor (Table 8.1).
