Background: Demyelinating lesions over 20 mm in size, referred to as tumefactive demyelinating lesions, can be misdiagnosed being either a tumor or an abscess. Although some radiological characteristics help make differential diagnosis easier, cerebral biopsy may still necessary. Objective: Our objective was assess the clinical of with without multiple sclerosis (MS), and present follow-up data for 54 patients lesions. Methods: Demographic, clinical, laboratory were gathered treatment...
Abstract Objective: The aim of this study was to determine whether hyperhomocysteinemia caused by levodopa used in idiopathic Parkinson's disease (IPD) is associated with cognitive or physical impairments. role folate and vitamin B12 levels context also ascertained. Methods: Thirty-nine patients who had been followed the diagnosis IPD our clinic for > 2 years 28 healthy control subjects similar demographic features were included study. homocysteine, folic acid results short test mental...
In the late-stage idiopathic Parkinson's disease (IDP), comorbid conditions such as depression and drug-induced psychosis may be observed. A patient with Parkinson disease, major depression, paranoid who developed neuroleptic malignant syndrome (NMS) result of sudden termination high-dose (1200 mg/d) levodopa treatment is presented in this report. Because did not respond to other modalities, electroconvulsive therapy (ECT) was applied, a rapid improvement observed both patient's NMS also...
Chronic overexposure to manganese (Mn) may cause neuronal degeneration. Manganese intoxication is well known induce parkinsonism. be associated with abnormal magnetic resonance (MR) imaging (abnormal signal hyperintensity in the globus pallidus and substantia nigra on T1-weighted images).We report an unusual presentation of due administration a combination acetylsalicylic acid ephedrine HCl, potassium permanganate, vinegar melted tap water administered parenterally as psychostimulant...
Objective In this study, we aimed to find out whether sexual dysfunction in patients with Parkinson’s Disease (PD) was associated PD-related disability and relationship modulated by depressive anxiety symptoms. Methods Eighty-nine consecutive idiopathic PD who attended our movement disorders outpatient clinics between January 2011 June 2014 were included study. The diagnosis of confirmed a specialists Neurology, according UK Society Brain Bank Criteria. Unified Rating Scale (UPDRS) motor...
Syphilis is still a significant public health problem in developing countries. Although chorea very rare manifestation of neurosyphilis, it might be on occasions the initial symptom. This report presents patients with neurosyphilis who had as presenting
Camptocormia, also referred to as bent spine, is a gait disorder characterized by hyperflexion of the thoracolumbar spine that develops in recumbent position while walking and disappears supine position. Myopathy one frequent causes camptocormia. A 77-yr-old male patient who was followed up with diagnosis rheumatoid arthritis for 2 yrs admitted progressive deterioration. Hyperflexion trunk, disappearing position, detected diagnosed He exhibited signs parkinsonism. paraspinal muscle biopsy...
Epileptic seizures are paroxysmal events, and it is likely that many, if not most, of them precipitated by known or unknown factors acting on a central nervous system predisposed to the production epileptic discharges presence an organic lesion, genetically determined neuronal hyperexcitability, both. Known precipitating influences quite varied. We report case 58 years-old patient, followed for non-ketotic hyperglycemia, who presented with focal exclusively induced specific, active passive,...
Summary: Carpal tunnel syndrome (CTS) is the most common nerve entrapment syndrome. Electromyogram (EMG) beneficial in supporting diagnosis of CTS. We compared standard conduction studies EMG with median and ulnar motor from recordings second lumbrical interosseal muscles In this study, a total 242 patients were included, 375 hands involved. Electrophysiologic CTSs diagnosed 283 161 patients. A significant association between lumbrical–interosseal distal latency difference (2LI-MDLD) CTS was...
Camptocormia is a gait disorder, characterized by hyperflexion of thoracolumbar spine which increases on walking, and disappears in the supine position. A 48 year‐old man developed progressive deterioration for one year slight weakness tremor both hands five months. It eventually became apparent that patient had motor neuron disease, as well symptoms extrapyramidal disorder.
Multiple sclerosis (MS) occurs with immune-mediated mechanisms, but its pathogenesis is not accurately known. The coexistence of MS other autoimmune diseases has been reported. hypothesis that coexists supported by the reported association type I diabetes mellitus and inflammatory disorders. Even though there have only rare reports associations between Hashimoto thyroiditis MS, this important for clinical therapeutic aspects. Proximal muscle weakness, myalgia, fatigue are symptoms common in...
Reports of 9 cases with hand dystonia due to stroke are described. The site the lesion was found be parietothalamic in 1 patient, posterolateral thalamic 5 patients, dorsal 2 patients and medial patient as defined by computerized tomography or magnetic resonance imaging. In addition dystonia, hemiballism noted case, hemichorea cases, action tremor 3, anxiety 3 pain cases. time lapse from manifestation month years.
Primary progressive multiple sclerosis (PPMS), relapsing remitting MS (RRMS) and acute disseminated encephalomyelitis (ADEM) are clinically immunopathogenetically distinct phenotypes of inflammatory demyelinating disorders the central nervous system. Progression following RRMS is well described as secondary MS. We report a patient with unexpected transition from long established PPMS to radiologically active after an ADEM-like fulminant episode despite immunosuppressive treatment preceding...
