Brain Surgery - Intracerebral Tumor with Blockage of CSF Circulation - Medical Illustration, Human Anatomy Drawing
This stock medical exhibit shows an intracerebral tumor with blockage of cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) circulation in a series of illustrations. The first illustration shows the normal anatomy of the brain in a coronal section, including the cerebrum, superior sinus, lateral ventricle, third ventricle and optic tract. The second illustration shows normal anatomy of the brain in a mid-sagittal view, including some of the previously mentioned structures and the pineal gland, cerebral aqueduct, fourth ventricle, subarachnoid space of the spinal cord, and the pathway of CSF circulation. The third illustration shows the actual condition in a coronal section of the brain, including the dilation of the ventricles from accumulated CSF, blockage of CSF circulation from the third ventricle by a tumor and a compromised optic tract due to raised intracranial pressure. The fourth illustration shows the actual condition of the brain in a mid-sagittal section, including the blocked CSF circulation from the third ventricle by the tumor. The fifth illustration shows the location of the ventriculoperitoneal shunt in a coronal section of the brain. The sixth illustration is an enlarged view of the fifth, showing the drainage of CSF through a cannula inserted into the lateral ventricle, the location of the intracerebral tumor and the decompression of the optic tract.
"I just wanted to let you know that after several days on trial, I settled
[my client's] construction accident case for $4.5 million. Immediately after
the jury was discharged, I spoke with several jurors who told me that they
really appreciated the medical illustrations for their clarity in dealing
with [my client's] devastating injuries. They also expressed their gratitude
in being able to read from a distance all of the notations without
difficulty. Obviously, the boards were visually persuasive. I am certain
that this contributed to our successful result."

"Thank you very much for the great work on the medical exhibits. Our trial
resulted in a $16 million verdict for a 9 year old boy with catastrophic
injuries, and the medical illustrations definitely played key role in the
trial."

"For modern audiences, it is absolutely essential to use medical
demonstrative evidence to convey the severity and extent of physical
injuries to a jury. Your company's high quality illustrations of our
client's discectomy surgery, combined with strong expert testimony, allowed
the jury to fully appreciate the significance of our client's injuries.
We are very pleased with a verdict exceeding $297,000.00, far in excess of
the $20,000.00 initially offered by the defendant. The medical demonstrative
evidence provided by Medical Legal Art was an asset we could not have
afforded to have been without."
Todd J. Kenyon

"Thanks, and your illustrations were effective in a $3
million dollar verdict last Friday."
