Abstract
BACKGROUND The basophil activation test (BAT), which relies on flow cytometric quantitation of the allergen-induced up-regulation of the granule-associated marker CD63 in peripheral blood basophils, has been suggested to be a useful approach in detecting responsiveness to allergens. The purpose of this study was to establish the usefulness of the BAT with regard to the clinical history and current diagnostic tools in Hymenoptera venom allergy using a prospective study design. METHODS Fifty-seven consecutive patients allergic to Hymenoptera venom as defined by a systemic reaction after an insect sting, and 30 age- and sex-matched control subjects with a negative history were included. The degree and nature of sensitization was confirmed by skin testing, specific immunoglobulin E (IgE), serum tryptase levels and BAT. In the nonallergic control group only analysis of specific IgE and BAT were performed. Correlation of BAT, skin test and specific IgE, respectively, with the clinical history in the allergic group was termed as sensitivity and in the control group as specificity. RESULTS Twenty one of 23 (91.3%) bee venom allergic patients and 29 of 34 (85.3%) patients allergic to wasp and hornet venom tested positive in BAT. The overall sensitivity of BAT, specific IgE and skin tests were 87.7, 91.2 and 93.0%, respectively. The overall specificities were 86.7% for BAT and 66.7% for specific IgE. No correlation between the severity of clinical symptoms and the magnitude of basophil activation was observed. CONCLUSION The BAT seems to be an appropriate method to identify patients allergic to bee or wasp venom with a comparable sensitivity to standard diagnostic regimens. The higher specificity of BAT as compared with specific IgE makes this test a useful tool in the diagnosis of Hymenoptera venom allergy.

Abstract
A cystic lesion adjacent to the dens with compression of the lower portion of the medulla oblongata was found on MRI in a 75-year-old male patient with a 2-month history of occipital pain and gait disturbance. Clinically, the patient showed mild tetraparesis, signs of spinal ataxia and symmetrical hyperreflexia. Following subtotal removal of the cyst via left-sided suboccipital craniotomy and left-sided hemilaminectomy of C1 the lesion was classified as synovial cyst on histopathological examination. Postoperatively, the quadriparesis almost completely subsided and the patient is currently doing well, 33 months after surgery. Synovial or ganglion cysts adjacent to the atlantoaxial articulation with ventral compression of the cervicomedullar cord represent rare surgical or radiological entities. Atlantoaxial synovial cysts have no typical radiographic appearance or specific neurological symptoms so that they are frequently misdiagnosed as intraspinal- or skull base tumour, rheumatoid lesion or ectatic vertebral artery. Since no ensuing complications or recurrences have been encountered in cases of incompletely removed cysts the less invasive operative approaches should be used to avoid destabilisation and subsequent additional surgical procedures.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Glomus jugular tumours are usually managed by microsurgical resection and/or radiotherapy with considerable risk for treatment-related morbidity. The role of Gamma Knife Radiosurgery (GKRS) in the management of these lesions remains to be defined. METHOD Between May 1992 and November 2000, 19 patients with glomus tumours underwent GKRS at our department. Nine patients received radiosurgery for residual or recurrent paragangliomas following microsurgical resection and in 10 cases GKRS was performed as primary treatment. The median tumour volume was 5.22 ccm (range: 0.38-33.5 ccm). Marginal doses of 12-20 Gy (median 14 Gy) were applied to enveloping isodose volume curves (Range: 30-55%, median 50%). FINDINGS Except for an 81-year-old patient who died 9 months after radiosurgery the observation time ranged from 1.5 to 10 years (median 7.2 yrs). The total tumour control rate was 94.7% (7 cases with decreased and 11 with stable tumour size). The only patient with tumour progression (5.3%) underwent repeated radiosurgical treatment 85 months after initial GKRS. A newly diagnosed second lesion in the cavernous sinus was treated radiosurgically as well 53 months after the first Gamma Knife procedure. On clinical examination 10 patients (52.6%) presented with improved and 8 patients (42.1%) with unchanged neurological status. Deterioration in one patient (5.3%) was not related to tumour or radiosurgery. INTERPRETATION As GKRS demonstrated to be a minimally invasive treatment alternative to microsurgery and radiotherapy with no acute or chronic toxicity it should be considered more frequently in the primary or adjuvant strategy for glomus jugular tumours.

Abstract
INTRODUCTION Microsurgical excision with preservation of juxtaposed neurovascular structures is considered the treatment of choice for skull base meningiomas, but there exists a great controversy regarding surgical resectability, potential risk for subsequent postoperative Cranial Nerve Deficit (CND) and the role of adjuvant or adjunctive treatment options. In this study we evaluated the effect of Gamma Knife Radiosurgery (GKRS) in 121 patients with benign basal meningiomas after a follow-up of 5 to 9.8 years. METHODS Sixty patients had undergone open resections prior to radiosurgical treatment and 61 patients were treated by GKRS alone. Tumour volumes of 0.5 to 89.9 ccm (median 6.8 ccm) received a median marginal dose of 13 Gy (range 7-25 Gy) at the covering 25% to 80% isodose volume curves (median 45%). RESULTS Neuroradiological controls demonstrated decreased tumour size in 73 patients (60.3%), stable meningioma volume in 47 cases (38.9%) and tumour enlargement in one patient (0.8%). Clinically, 54 patients (44.6%) improved and 61 cases (50.4%) remained unchanged. Four patients (3.3%) showed temporary and two patients (1.7%) permanent neurological deterioration (unrelated to tumour or treatment in one patient). Two patients (1.7%) developed radiation induced new or aggravated pre-existent CND (1 transient, 1 permanent) and two patients (1.7%) required further surgical resection. CONCLUSION In our long-term experience, GKRS proved to be an attractive additional and save alternative primary treatment option in selected patients with basal meningiomas. The tumour control rate of 98.3% associated with excellent clinical outcome and low incidence for treatment related CND (1.7%) compares favourably with the reported microsurgical series.

Abstract
BACKGROUND The prevailing percutaneous treatment options for herniated non-contained lumbar discs have not reliably achieved the same good results as the conventional microsurgical techniques. In this study we evaluated clinical outcome and complication rate following endoscopic percutaneous transforaminal treatment of extruded or sequestrated herniated lumbar discs in 122 patients with a follow-up period of more than one year. METHOD Between October 1997 and December 2000, 86 male and 36 female patients with a median age of 55 years (range 18 to 89 years) underwent endoscopic treatment for non-contained herniated lumbar discs at our department. Neurological controls were conducted after 4 to 8 weeks routinely and the clinical result was reassessed at a follow-up of 15 to 53 months (median 35 months) according to the Macnab scale and Prolo outcome score. FINDINGS On follow-up examination, 96 patients were found with permanently ameliorated or normal clinical status following endoscopy alone. The remaining 26 cases with unchanged or only temporarily improved neurological disorders were submitted to conventional microsurgical interventions. Spinal nerve root injury during endoscopic treatment occurred in two patients but no additional neurological deficits or aggravation of pre-existing disorders were observed. INTERPRETATION Due to the minimal invasivity, the good functional outcome (78.7% clinical amelioration) and the low complication rate (1.6%), this procedure represents an attractive and efficient treatment alternative especially for foraminal and extraforaminal herniated lumbar discs and reduces the indications for open surgery in selected cases.

Abstract
OBJECT Aetiology and pathogenesis of eating disorders is a matter of controversy. In some cases they can occur in association with tumours involving the temporal cortex, in temporal lobe epilepsy or in the advanced state of degenerative diseases involving temporal structures. We report about three patients with right frontal intracerebral lesions, one oligo-astrocytoma and two vascular malformations, associated with partial seizures and anorexia nervosa. PATIENTS AND METHODS 3 patients, one female and two men with anorexia nervosa and right frontal intracerebral lesions were admitted to our wards due to focal seizures or loss of consciousness. They were treated either microsurgically or by endovascular embolization after neuro-imaging. In our retrospective analysis of the patients' reports and course we investigated the histopathology of the lesions, duration of the eating disorder and the clinical outcome. RESULTS Two patients underwent craniotomy with extirpation of the lesion. In one case histology revealed an oligo-astrocytoma, in the other haemorrhagic infarction due to a venous malformation. The patient with the arteriovenous malformation (AVM) was embolized with microparticles. The patients with the oligoastrocytoma and AVM totally recovered. They gained weight and stayed seizure free. The patient with the infarction remained in a vegetative state. CONCLUSIONS Right frontal intracerebral lesions with their close relationship to the limbic system could be causative for eating disorders. We therefore recommend performing a cranial MRI in all patients with suspected eating disorders, especially if they occur in combination with focal seizures.

Abstract
Radiosurgery is either a primary or an adjunctive management approach used to treat patients with vestibular schwannomas. We sought to determine outcomes measuring the potential benefits against the neurological risks in patients who underwent radiosurgery after previous microsurgical subtotal resection or recurrence of the tumour after total resection. Gamma Knife radiosurgery was applied as an adjunctive treatment modality for 86 patients with vestibular schwannomas from April 1992 to August 2001. We evaluated the results of 50 patients who had a follow-up of at least 3.5 years (median 75 months, range 42-114 months). In 16 patients a recurrence of disease was observed after previous total resection. The median treatment volume was 3.4 ccm with a median dose to the tumour margin of 13 Gy. Tumour control rate was 96%. Two tumours progressed after adjunctive radiosurgery. Useful hearing (Gardner-Robertson II) (4 patients (8%)) and residual hearing (Gardner-Roberson III) (10 patients (20%)) remained unchanged in all patients, who presented with it before radiosurgery, respectively. Clinical neurological improvement was observed in 24 patients (46%). Adverse effects comprised transient neurological symptoms and signs (incomplete facial palsy, House-Brackman II/III) in five cases (recovered completely), mild trigeminal neuropathy in four cases, and morphological changes displaying rapid enlargement of a pre-existing macrocyst in one patient and tumour growth in another one. No permanent new cranial nerve deficit was observed. Radiosurgery appears to be an effective adjunctive method for growth control of vestibular schwannomas and is associated with both a low mortality rate and a good quality of life. Accordingly, radiosurgery is a rewarding therapeutic approach for the preservation of cranial nerve function in the management of patients with vestibular schwannoma in whom prior microsurgical resection failed.

Abstract
The purpose of the study was to determine the frequency of associated MR imaging findings in patients with symptomatic lumbar intraspinal synovial cysts, and to correlate MR with surgical findings. MR imaging studies of 18 patients with surgically and histopathologically proven lumbar intraspinal synovial cysts were retrospectively analyzed and correlated with surgical findings. The diameters of the synovial cysts ranged from 10 mm to 28 mm, with a mean of 16 mm. A nonhemorrhagic cyst was found in 15 patients (83%), and a hemorrhagic cyst in three patients (17%). Degenerative spondylolisthesis was found in six patients (33%) at the level of the synovial cyst, with displacement ranging from 3 to 5 mm, mean 4 mm. Surgery revealed instability and hypermobility of the facet joint at the level of the synovial cyst in all patients with degenerative spondylolisthesis, and in five additional patients. Symptomatic synovial cysts of the lumbar spine were associated with degenerative spondylolisthesis in six of 18 patients (33%) and with instability of the facet joint in 11 (61%). These findings may support the theory that increased segmental motion plays a role in the pathogenesis of synovial cysts.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE Synovial cysts of the vertebral facet joints are a source of nerve root compression. Different surgical procedures are in use, but no consensus has been formed so far as to which method should be used in synovial cysts. To clarify the role of surgical management, the efficacy of operative procedures and factors influencing the outcome in our own series of 19 patients treated between 1994 and 1998 were analysed. METHODS Nineteen patients with a mean age of 65 years underwent surgery for medically intractable radicular pain or neurological deficits caused by synovial cysts. The patients' records were retrospectively analysed for neurological deficits, cysts diameter, operative approach, segmental hypermobility, and clinical outcome; CT and MRI were analysed for additional degenerative changes. RESULTS In 17 patients an excellent result and in two patients a good postoperative result was achieved. Twelve patients were found to have hypermobility of the facet joints and six had spondylolisthesis. There was no correlation between cyst diameter, operative approach, and outcome. No intraoperative or postoperative complications occurred. CONCLUSIONS Age and hypermobility may play a part in the aetiology of facet joint synovial cysts. As all operative strategies showed equally good clinical outcome, total excision via a small flavectomy as the least invasive approach should be considered therapy of choice in patients with cysts causing neurological deficits.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Meralgia paresthetica, a syndrome of pain and/or dysesthesia in the anterolateral thigh, is normally caused by an entrapment of the lateral femoral cutaneous nerve (LFCN) at the anterior superior iliac spine. In a few cases compression of the nerve in the retroperitoneum has been reported to mimic meralgia paresthetica. CASE DESCRIPTION A 67-year-old woman presented with a 5-year history of permanent paresthesia in the anterolateral thigh. Motor weakness was not detected. Electromyography showed a neurogenic lesion at the level of L3. Lumbar spine MRI detected a foraminal-extraforaminal disc herniation at L2/L3, which was extirpated via a lateral transmuscular approach. The patient was free of symptoms on the first postoperative day. CONCLUSION In patients with meralgia paresthetica we emphasize a complete radiological investigation of the lumbar spine, including MRI, to exclude radicular compression by a disc herniation or a tumour at the level of L2 or L3.

Abstract
From April 1992 till December 1998 stereotactic radiosurgery (Gamma Knife) was applied to 192 patients with vestibular schwannomas. 56 of them had radiosurgery as primary treatment modality and were followed-up for at least 4 years (48-80 months, median 62). Without fatal complications, control of tumour growth was achieved in all but three cases, useful hearing being preserved in more than one half of the patients (62%). The neurological state improved in 30 patients (54%). Irradiation-associated adverse effects (18%) comprised neurological signs (incomplete facial palsy, four cases (two recovered completely), and mild trigeminal neuropathy, three cases, respectively) and morphological changes (three patients) marked by an enlargement of pre-existing cystic components calling for additional surgical treatment: Microsurgical decompression was performed in two cases, the third patient underwent a shunting procedure because of hydrocephalus formation. Based on the present data, radiosurgery represents an effective treatment for vestibular schwannomas associated with an exceptionally low mortality rate and a good quality of life. With respect to the preservation of cranial nerve function, results are comparable to microsurgical resection. A short duration of hospitalization and a quick return to normal activities constitute further advantages and contribute to cost effectiveness in public health care.

Abstract
From April 1992 to July 1998 stereotactic radiosurgery (Gamma Knife) was used to treat 1382 patients; 181 had acoustic neurinomas and were followed up, 44 of them for at least 4 years (48-75 months, median 60). With no mortality control of growth tumor was achieved in all cases but one. It was possible to preserve useful hearing in more than half of the patients (60%). In two patients complications due to the radiation with enlargement of the cystic component were observed. One patient needed additional microsurgical decompression. Three patients suffered transient incomplete facial palsy (one permanent, HBI III), and two patients complained of mild trigeminal neuropathy. One suffered from hydrocephalus and a shunting procedure was necessary. The neurological state improved in 23 patients (52%); five complained of new or worsened deficits. Radiosurgery is an effective alternative treatment for acoustic neurinomas with exceptionally low mortality and morbidity. With respect to preserving cranial nerve function the results are just as good as those of microsurgical resection. Short duration of hospitalization and quick return to normal activities make radiosurgery quite cost effective.

Abstract
The aim of this clinical study was to determine the tumour control rate, clinical outcome and complication rate following gamma knife treatment for glomus jugulare tumours. Between May 1992 and May 1998, 13 patients with glomus tumours underwent stereotactic radiosurgical treatment in our department. The age of these patients ranged from 21 to 80 years. The male:female ratio was 2:11. Six patients had primary open surgery for partial removal or recurrent growth and subsequent radiosurgical therapy. Radiosurgery was performed as primary treatment in 7 cases. The median tumour volume was 6.4 cm3 (range: 4.6-13.7 cm3). The median marginal dose applied to an average isodose volume of 50% (30-50%) was 13.5 Gy (12-20 Gy). In 10 patients, a total of 48 MRI and CT follow-up scans were available. The remaining three patients have been excluded from the postradiosurgical evaluation since the observation time (t < 12 months) was too short or patients were lost to follow up. The median interval from Gamma Knife treatment to the last radiological follow-up was 37.6 months (5-68 months). In 4 patients (40%) decreased tumour volumes were observed and in 6 cases (60%) the tumour size remained unchanged. Neurological follow-up examinations revealed improved clinical status in 5 patients (50%), a stable neurological status in 5 patients (50%) and no complications occurred. According to our preliminary experience Gamma Knife radiosurgery represents an effective treatment option for glomus jugulare tumours.

Abstract
We reviewed the medium-term results of endovascular treatment of intracranial aneurysms and compared patient selection and results with those of open surgery. Between January 1992 and December 1995, a total of 248 consecutive patients were treated for 297 aneurysms (61 unruptured and 236 ruptured). 162 aneurysms in 142 patients (mean age, 48.5 years) were treated microsurgically and 134 aneurysms in 106 patients (mean age, 54.2 years) were treated by endovascular embolization with Guglielmi detachable coils (GDC). The mean follow-up was 2.6 years (range, 1.5 to 4.5 years). There was no significant difference in patient population and selection in terms of age, sex or location of aneurysms between both methods. Both modalities achieved excellent results (defined as no neurological deficit) in patients with unruptured aneurysms and with no or minor deficits after subarachnoid hemorrhage (SAH) between 71% and 88%. Patients with moderate deficits after SAH had excellent outcomes in 49% after open surgery, and 47% after embolization. Poor grade patients had, equally, as well an acceptable as a pour outcome, between 0% and 50%. There was no significant difference between the outcome of surgical or endovascular patients. We conclude that GDC embolization is not associated with a higher risk of morbidity and mortality than open surgery. This risk may even be lower for lesions in surgically unfavorable locations. The GDC technique is a less invasive, effective option to prevent re-bleeding in early stage, even in poor-grade patients. However, these encouraging medium-term results have to be confirmed by a longer observation period.
