Surg. Gyn. Obstetr., 101/ 2. - Chicago, August 1955, 8°, 9 pp., 1 Fig., orig. brochure. Rare Offprint! "From the Department of Neurological Surgery, University of California School of Medicine, and the Neurosurgical Service of the Franklin Hospital, San Francisco, California. Including Drs. John E. Adams, Edwin B. Boldrey, Howard A Brown, Edward Davis, Howard Fleming, O W Tones Tr Howard C. Naffziger, and Eugene M. Webb." "The present article constitutes a report of 172 eases of intrinsic pituitary tumors anti craniopharyngiomas seen at the University of California and Franklin Hospitals (the majority at the former) from 1913 to 1951. The scries consisted of 100 cases of chromophobe adenoma (77 verified by surgery, 12 presumptive diagnoses, and 11 asymptomatic at autopsy), 33 of acromegaly, 23 of craniopharyngioma, 4 of malignant adenoma, 4 of basophil adenoma, and 8 of metastases to the pituitary. The group does not reflect a uniform method of therapy, for the patients have been treated by different members of the attending1 and resident staffs of the two hospitals over this 38 year period, during which many refinements have taken place in the diagnosis and treatment of these lesions. This fact in itself, we believe, lends value to the series.".

Epartment of Neurological Surgery, University of California School of Medicine, San Francisco. Edwin B. Boldrey was a professor of neurosurgery at the University of California-San Francisco and a 1932 graduate from Indiana University School of Medicine. After obtaining his M.D., he began his postgraduate training at the Montreal General Hospital, and later went to the Montreal Neurological Institute at McGill University. At the institute, Boldery worked with Dr. Wilder Penfield on cortical localization. With Penfield, he studied and published original contributions that provided the fundamental anatomical correlates of much of the clinical physiology of motor and sensory cortical mechanisms in humans. He completed his residency in 1939. Boldery also received an M.Sc. degree in neurology and neurosurgery in 1936. In 1940, Dr. Boldery joined the Department of Neurological Surgery at University of California - San Francisco, where he served on the faculty for 48 years and as Chairman from 1951 to 1956. Dr. Boldrey has made many important contributions to his specialty, including the development of new concepts of cortical physiology.

"Since the end of World War I impressive advances have been made in our knowledge of the biologic characteristics, modes of early diagnosis, and treatment of tumors affecting the nervous system. It is now recognized that these tumors, once considered rare, constitute 2 per cent of all cancers. The early diagnosis of this group has been materially aided by improvement in the knowledge of the physiology of the nervous system as well as by technical developments, notably pneumoencephalography, cerebral angiography, myelography and to some extent electroencephalography. Through improvement of surgical and anesthetic technic the operative mortality in brain tumors is at a Level comparable with that of major surgical operations elsewhere in the body. The percentage of surgically curable tumors is gradually being enlarged. Improvement in roentgen therapy is prolonging the useful life of increasing numbers of patients with nonremovable growths. The side effects of brain tumors have also become controlled more satisfactorily during this period of time. Convulsions, which are one of the most frequent complications of brain tumors, are reduced in frequency or are eliminated entirely by a variety of anticonvulsant drugs which have been developed in recent years. Improved knowledge of endocrine function has minimized the distressing effects of tumors of the intracranial endocrine glands and centers. Developments in these two particular lines have reduced the incidence of psychic disturbance resulting from the projection of endocrine or convulsive disease into the patient's life." Naffziger Howard Christian Naffziger (1884-1961) was an American neurosurgeon, noted for his invention of the orbital decompression procedure, to alleviate intraocular pressure that occurs in goiter and other conditons. Naffziger's contributions to the field of neurosurgery were many. He reported on treatment of subdural hematoma, spinal cord injuries, skull fractures, and the surgical treatment of exophthalmos in patients with Graves' disease. A phenomenon of shoulder and upper extremity pain related to hypertrophied scalene muscle would become known as Naffziger syndrome after he described a technique for surgical scaleniotomy.

From the Montreal Neurological Institute, and the Department of Neurology and Neurosurgery, McGill University, and the Montreal General Hospital. Reprint No. 120. "Since Cruveilhier's description of an intracranial "tumeur d'apparence perlée" (1829), dermoid cysts have been encountered frequently in the brain. A spinal dermoid, however, is still a rare operative or autopsy finding. Since 1875, the presence of dermoid or epidermoid cysts in the vertebral canal has been reported in 40 instances, the present contribution of three such cases being included. This paper presents a summary of the records and a brief consideration of the anatomical and clinical aspects of these tumors. Bostroem's term "dermoid" and "epidermoid" (1897), currently more acceptable than Müller's "cholesteatome" (1838), denotes a group of congenital growths which "commonly originate by the inclusion of a portion of ectoderm during closure of embryonal fissures, or at the point of union of ectoderm with other structures along the course of ectodermic invagination or from persistent embryonal ectodermal structures" or from trauma or teratomatous remnants (Ewing, 1931). The type and location of the cyst appear related to the age of the fetus at the time of the inclusion error. They may be single or multiple ; they may contain any or all of the products of the skin and its glands, though epidermoids do not as a rule contain hair. In this presentation we have not differentiated between dermoid and epidermoid. We have assumed the accuracy of the pathological diagnosis in all instances. The following cases have been previously reported." Boldrey & Elvidge Edwin B.

Review of cortical localization of simple somatic motor and sensory representation. B. Atypical responses in selected cases. C. Localization of initial phenomenon in epileptic discharge. D. Discussion E. Conclusion. Edwin Barkley Boldrey, M.D., (1906-1988) "has made many important contributions to his specialty, including the development of new concepts of cortical physiology. He is considered one of the nation's outstanding neurosurgeons and has international stature as a master surgeon. He is a member of more than 25 neurosurgical and medical societies and is past president of the American Academy of Neurological Surgery, the Western Neurological Society, and the Society of Neurological Surgeons, the oldest organization of its kind in the world. Last year, he was appointed neurological consultant to the National Veteran's Administration in Washington, D.C. Edward Bolrey received an A.B. degree with a major in English Composition at DePauw University. In 1930, he was awarded an M.A. degree in anatomy and psychology. His M.D. degree was awarded by Indiana University, where he was elected to Alpha Omega Alpha, in 1932. He began his postgraduate training at the Montreal General Hospital, and later went to the Montreal Neurological Institute of McGill University. At the latter, he worked with Dr. Wilder Penfield on cortical localization, and with Drs. William Cone and Arthur Elvidge. He received an M.Sc. degree in neurology and neurosurgery in 1936." Depauw University "Wilder Graves Penfield (1891-1976) was an American-Canadian neurosurgeon. He expanded brain surgery's methods and techniques, including mapping the functions of various regions of the brain such as the cortical homunculus. His scientific contributions on neural stimulation expand across a variety of topics including hallucinations, illusions, dissociation and déjà vu. Penfield devoted much of his thinking to mental processes, including contemplation of whether there was any scientific basis for the existence of the human soul."

Radiology, 41/2. - Radiological Society of North America, August, 1943, Gr.4°, pp.107-116, 10 Figs., orig. self wrapper. Rare Offprint! From the Montreal Neurological Service of Howard C. Naffziger, M.D., University of California Hospital. Presented , as a part of a Symposium on Brain Tumors, before the Radiological Society of North Amerika, at the twenty-seventh Annual Meeting, San Francisco, Calif., Dec. 1-5, 1941. "The title of this part of the symposium on brain tumors does not question the existence of a relationship between pathology and roentgenologic diagnosis; it is rather a statement of fact. This is stimulating to the imagination, yet is full of danger for any who might incline toward over-enthusiasm. The relative situations to be discussed are the possibilities, perhaps occasionally probabilities, of pathologic diagnosis when the radiologist possesses certain clinical and roentgenographic information. An attempt will be made to point out the possible pathological reasons for some of the shadows recorded on the x-ray film. In 1879 Macewen (4) successfully removed a brain tumor from the frontal lobe, the first operation of this kind on record. The next eighteen years of neuro-anatomical and neurophysiological endeavor culminated in an event in Italy which, though unheralded at the time, was comparable in its implications to the original surgical attack on this disease. In 1897, just two years after Roentgen discovered the x-ray, Obici and Bollici (5) first recorded the radiographic demonstration of an intracranial tumor (Fig. 1). In the four and one-half decades which have followed, the labor of anatomists, physiologists, pathologists, clinicians, surgeons, and radiologists has brought us to a level where we can attempt a correlation between two highly specialized scientific fields."
