BACKGROUND: Combined quantitative susceptibility mapping and R2* relaxometry can distinguish iron myelin components in ischemic lesions. We aimed to investigate whether longitudinal changes magnetic values within lesions were associated with neurological outcomes. METHODS: In this single-center prospective study, we included patients, 20 90 years of age, who consecutively admitted the stroke care unit between August 2020 March 2022 due acute stroke. The participants underwent 2 instances...
Abstract Bilateral medial medullary infarction (MMI) is a rare form of ischemic stroke, mainly caused by vertebral artery atherosclerosis or small penetrating disease. We report case bilateral MMI due to varicella‐zoster virus (VZV) vasculopathy. An 81‐year‐old man presented with altered consciousness and right hemiplegia during disseminated herpes zoster. Polymerase chain reaction analysis his cerebrospinal fluid detected positive VZV‐DNA, magnetic resonance imaging revealed localized the...
Abstract Pure sensory stroke, a well‐defined clinical entity characterized by symptoms, sometimes causes atypical distributions of impairment. We herein report an 85‐year‐old man presenting with isolated impairment the right‐sided ear auricle due to postcentral gyrus infarction. The somatotopic representation in human primary somatosensory cortex that corresponds has not been elucidated. This case suggests possible cortical area for ear.
