DENNISON, M.B., Ch.B., F.R.C.S.(Ed.). from the Royal Hospital for Sick Children, Glasgow. II c stand upon the intellectual shoulders of the medical giants of bygone days and, because of the help they afford us, we are able to see more clearly than they were able to do. ?Claude Bernard (1813-78). Pyogenic infection of bone is as old as man. We do not know all the diseases to which the flesh of palaeolithic man was heir, but his surviving bones tell us that a common disease was inflammation of the bone involving a joint and producing deformity. The first written record of knowledge of bone disease comes to us in the Smith Surgical Papyrus written about 1600 B.C. (Breasted, 1930). -I he Egyptians could not eliminate magic from their medicine and ibis- headed Thos, hawk-headed Horus, lion-headed Sekhmet, and other such ??ds, overwhelmed the laws of science. The papyrus tells us that bone Caries and suppuration were treated by poultices of ground snakes, frogs and puppies and by decoctions of various herbs. Evidence of osteo- myelitis has been found in some of the earliest Egyptian mummies. In aiicient China, inflammation was treated by the application of small Pieces of slow-burning wood over the painful area, while the Hindus had an old dogma?' The fire cures diseases which cannot be cured by the knife and drugs.' The Hindus were skilled surgeons and they immobilized lnfiamed and broken limbs by light wooden splints.

  • Lesions at the Foramen of Monro Causing Obstructive Hydrocephalus Ashish Chugh, Sarang Gotecha, Prashant Punia and Neelesh Kanaskar
    Chapter Lesions at the Foramen of Monro Causing Obstructive Hydrocephalus Ashish Chugh, Sarang Gotecha, Prashant Punia and Neelesh Kanaskar Abstract The foramen of Monro has also been referred to by the name of interventricular foramen. The structures comprising this foramen are the anterior part of the thala- mus, the fornix and the choroid plexus. Vital structures surround the foramen, the damage to which can be catastrophic leading to disability either temporary or permanent. In the literature it has been shown that tumors occurring in the area of interventricular foramen are rare and usually cause hydrocephalus. The operative approach depends upon the location of the tumor which can be either in the lateral or the third ventricle. Various pathologies which can lead to foramen of Monro obstruction and obstructive hydrocephalus include colloid cyst, craniopharyngioma, subependymal giant cell astrocytoma [SEGA], Neurocysti- cercosis, tuberculous meningitis, pituitary macroadenoma, neurocytoma, ventriculitis, multiseptate hydrocephalus, intraventricular hemorrhage, function- ally isolated ventricles, choroid plexus tumors, subependymomas and idiopathic foramen of monro stenosis. In this chapter, we will discuss the various lesions at the level of foramen of Monro causing obstructive hydrocephalus and the management and associated complications of these lesions based on their type, clinical picture and their appearance on imaging. Keywords: Foramen of Monro, interventricular foramen, obstruction, obstructive hydrocephalus, raised intracranial pressure 1. Introduction The foramen of Monro has also been referred to by the name of interventricular foramen. The first description of this foramen was given by Alexander Monro in the year 1783 and 1797. The authors of that era were of the opinion that the use of nomenclature ‘foramen of monro’ was incorrect; instead ‘interventricular foramen’ would be more apt.

MY DEAR FERGUSSON, I have very sincere pleasure in dedicating this volume to you, the favoured pupil, the zealous colleague, and attached friend of Dr. Robert Knox. In associating your excellent name with this Biography, I do honour to the memory of our Anatomical Teacher.

PREFACE. Shortly after the decease of Dr. Robert Knox (Dec. 1862), several friends solicited me to write his Life, but I respectfully declined, on the grounds that I had no literary experience, and that there were other pupils and associates of the Anatomist senior to myself, and much more competent to undertake his biography : moreover, I was borne down at the time by a domestic sorrow so trying that the seven years since elapsing have not entirely effaced its influence.
