Transverse myelitis (TM) is a relatively uncommon condition, and vaccine-associated even rarer. Concern regarding neurological complications following vaccination escalated the report of TM during safety efficacy trials COVID-19 vaccine.We first case Longitudinal Extensive Myelitis (LETM) in Malaysia administration chimpanzee adenovirus-vectored (ChAdOx1 nCoV-19) vaccine.

Case presentation We described 60-year-old man diagnosed and later presented two-week history myalgia, progressive limb weakness, dysphagia. He had...
Rhabdomyolysis is a serious but rare side effect of Lamivudine treatment. Therefore, appropriate biochemical monitoring should be undertaken when it used in the treatment hepatitis B. This paper presents case Lamivudine-associated rhabdomyolysis 31-year-old man with congenital heart disease and Three days after starting Lamivudine, patient developed myalgia. Significant muscle tenderness swelling upper lower limbs was discovered during physical examination. Creatine kinase markedly raised....
Abstract Background Isolated common peroneal neuropathy (CPN) is the most lower extremity mononeuropathy and third overall in adults. It often associated with multiple aetiologies, such as trauma, hereditary neuropathies iatrogenic causes. We report a rare case of acute bilateral foot drop late adolescent female following rapid weight loss attributable to intermittent fasting diet. Case presentation A 19-year-old presented worsening intentional by She lost 20% her baseline bodyweight within...
Myotonia congenita (MC) is a rare neuromuscular disease caused by mutations within the CLCN1 gene encoding skeletal muscle chloride channels. MC characterized delayed relaxation during contraction, resulting in stiffness. There lack of case reports and data on prevalence among Malaysians. We report clinical 50-year-old woman presents with stiffness cramp episodes that started early childhood. She had difficulty initiating movement presented transient weakness after rest, which usually...
Abstract Background NeuroAid II (MLC901) is a promising therapy for stroke patients who present outside of therapeutic window reperfusion therapy. Studies have proven its efficacy in ischemic stroke; however, data drug safety and combination with other medications especially anticoagulants are heterogenous. We report possible case hepatotoxicity induced by anticoagulants. Case presentation an elderly patient developed symptoms cardioembolic presented time He was started on regiment statins,...
The corononavirus 2019 (COVID-19) pandemic resulted in modifications the workflow and redistribution of human resources, causing challenges setting up an acute stroke service. We would like to share our preliminary outcome amid this pandemic, determine if implementation COVID-19 standard operating procedures (SOPs) affected delivery hyperacute service.We retrospectively analyzed one-year data from registry that began with establishment service at Universiti Putra Malaysia Teaching Hospital...
Abstract Background and objectives: Despite the advancement in managing acute ischemic stroke, global burden would not be reduced without extensive public health efforts to raise awareness among public. Moreover, lack of knowledge healthcare-seeking practice developing nations proved a hindrance combating stroke. Therefore, this study aimed assess effectiveness stroke campaigns raising based on recognition, actions taken during attitude Malaysia. Methods: This is cross-sectional adults aged...

Mycoplasma pneumonia is an atypical bacterium that causes mild respiratory tract infections, especially in the upper system. pneumoniae infection infrequently associated with various CNS manifestations such as encephalitis, meningoencephalitis, myelitis, Guillain-Barre syndrome and acute disseminated encephalomyelitis (ADEM). Here we report a rare case of mycoplasma encephalitis adult who presented first episode seizure following fever neck stiffness for one week. antibody titer was markedly...
Abstract Background Trigeminal neuralgia (TN) commonly affects individuals aged more than 50 years and is mostly primary owing to trigeminal nerve neurovascular compression. We report a case of secondary TN attributed giant intracavernous aneurysm compressing the nerve. Case presentation A 74-year-old female presented with classic symptoms, which were initially refractory medical treatment. Imaging including MRI brain, MR angiography, cerebral angiogram revealed measuring 1.7 cm × 2.8 cm,...
