  • orbital Phlebography a comparison between cluster headache and other headaches
    Headache, 1992
    Co-Authors: G Bovim, G Jenssen, K Ericson
    Abstract:

    Orbital Phlebography has previously been found to be pathologic in 8 of 13 patients with episodic cluster headache. To compare the frequency and pattern of the pathologic findings in cluster headache with those in other headache categories, orbital phlebographies were carried out in patients with cluster headache, cervicogenic headache, migraine and tension-type headache (tension headache). The investigations were evaluated independently by two radiologists, one of whom had no knowledge of the diagnoses. The frequencies of pathologic findings were at maximal 2/12 in the cluster headache group, 2/11 in the cervicogenic headache group, 5/12 in the migraine group and 5/15 in the tension-type headache group. The investigators agreed completely in the evaluation of 39/50 phlebograms, with lesser disagreements in 7. In conclusion, the frequency of pathologic findings at orbital Phlebography in cluster headache was not higher than in the other diagnostic categories investigated, and the pattern of the pathology was generally the same.

  • a comparison between descending Phlebography and duplex doppler investigation in the evaluation of reflux in chronic venous insufficiency a challenge to Phlebography as the gold standard
    Journal of Vascular Surgery, 1992
    Co-Authors: Peter Neglen, Seshadri Raju
    Abstract:

    Abstract To evaluate venous reflux in 56 lower limbs of 32 consecutive patients, hemodynamic tests, ascending and descending Phlebography, and supine and erect quantitative duplex scanning were performed and the clinical severity was classified (class 0=15, class 1=19, class 2=8, and class 3=14). Of the 56 lower limbs, 22 (40%) had severe swelling and hyperpigmentation with or without ulcer (classes 2 and 3). Adequacy of the clinical severity classification was supported by the hemodynamic results. Radiologic and ultrasound findings were described by axial grading, multilevel/multisystem point, and multisegment scoring systems. Applying these evaluation systems, the phlebographic and scan results correlated poorly. There was no relationship between the radiologically obtained average reflux grade or points and the clinical severity. An erect quantitative duplex Doppler test assessed by the multisegment scoring system correlated best with the severity classification. The predictive value of this test to diagnose severe reflux leading to severe symptoms (classes 2 and 3) was 77% compared with 35% to 44% for descending Phlebography. The study suggests that erect quantitative segmental duplex Doppler reflects the degree and distribution of venous reflux more accurately than does descending venography.

  • Chronic paroxysmal hemicrania: orbital Phlebography and steroid treatment. Ce- phalalgia 1987;7:189-92
    2016
    Co-Authors: Jan Hannerz, Kaj Ericson, Gustaf Bergstr, Hannerz J, Ericson K
    Abstract:

    A 62-year-old man with ankylosing spondylitis and with a 3-year history of chronic paroxysmal hemicrania is presented. Because of his ankylosing spondylitis naproxen was prescribed; this decreased the attacks of headache to about 50%. However, treatment with indomethacin and steroids eliminated the attacks completely, the former drug in 24 h but only when the drug was taken; the latter drug was completely effective after a week but with an effect that lasted half a year after the medication was stopped. Orbital Phlebography showed changes similar to those previously observed in patients with Tolosa-Hunt syndrome and cluster headache. Venous vasculitis thus seems to be associated with all three disorders and may be a factor of etiologic significance. 0 Chronic paroxysmal hemicrania, orbital phlebograph
