Neurilemmoma of the parapharyngeal space
(1979) Virinder Mohan; S.K. Gupta; H.C. Samant; Manjit Arora; Sushila Khanna
Neurilemmomas are rare neurogenic tumours and their parapharyngeal location is very uncommon, A case of neurilemmoma of this location is presented. © 1979 Association of Otolaryngologists of India.
Symptomatic vertebral haemangiomas
(1980) Virinder Mohan; S.K. Gupta; S.M. Tuli; B. Sanyal
Twelve cases of symptomatic vertebral haemangioma are reported in respect of their clinical presentation and radiological findings. One patient was only 10 years old, the youngest patient ever reported. Less commonly known findings of associated paravertebral mass and the displacement of the thoracic paraspinal line are discussed. © 1980 Royal College of Radiologists.
The thoracic paraspinal line: Further significance
(1979) S.K. Gupta; Virinder Mohan
Three hundred and seventeen cases which included 100 normal individuals have been studied for roentgen significance of the thoracic paraspinal line (TPL). The descending thoracic aorta greatly determines the course and configuration of the TPL. In a right-sided aorta, the TPL is seen on the right side as a mirror image of a left-sided TPL. Lateral deviation of the TPL and descending aorta occur as an ageing process. In systemic hypertension where there is an aortic unfolding, the TPL also unfolds and the degree of TPL deviation has a fair degree of linear relationship with the severity and duration of hypertension in young individuals. Most cases of mitral valvular disease show lateral deviation of the TPL and descending aorta. In these cases the enlarged left atrium displaces the descending aorta and hence the posteromedial border of left lung posterolaterally tangential to the vertebral column resulting in deviation of the TPL and aorta. Perioesophageal spread of carcinoma of the oesophagus into the posterior mediastinum is indicated by changes in pleuro-oesophageal interface and TPL. Mediastinal lymphadenopathy in cases of testicular tumours may be detected by discovery of TPL deviation on frontal radiographs of the thoracic spine. In extradural masses such as granulomas, abscesses and metastatic deposits, the TPL shows a localised bulge corresponding to the clinical and myelographic level of spinal compression. © 1979.
