BACKGROUND
The classical symptoms of congenital neurosyphilis include meningovascular lesions that are responsible for CSF abnormalities. Lesions of larger vessels are very unusual.
METHODS
A boy was born from a neglected pregnancy, weighing 2.7 kg. He was abandoned by his parents and was admitted
We describe isolated unilateral axial weakness in three patients eventually diagnosed with anterior cerebral artery infarction (ACAI), a new clinical observation. Files of three ACAI patients (2 females, 1 male, ages 55-80) were retrospectively reviewed. All three presented to the ED with sudden
Cerebral arterial infarction is a more common cause of neonatal seizures than has been previously appreciated. In 50 full-term newborns with seizures studied, 7 had cerebral infarction which was the second most common definable cause of seizures. We describe these 7 full-term infants with
A full-term neonate was born to a 41-year-old woman via elective primary cesarean section for frank breech presentation after a 41-week pregnancy. Starting at 6 hr of age the infant presented with multiple episodes of apnea and cyanosis, in association with moderate hypotonia, subsequently requiring
OBJECTIVE
Studying of influence of monopril, propranolol and heparin on central hemodynamics, cardiodynamics, volume of defeat and clinical current of myocardial infarction (MI) in the early and late hospital period of disease. 50 patients with an initial front MI with Q wave in the age of from 30
Little is known about the effect of inhalation of methanol and other solvents on the pregnancy and the growth of the fetus. We report a preterm male infant who developed cerebral infarcts in utero, leading to large areas of bilateral frontal cortical leukomalacia following chronic maternal
A 76-year-old man suddenly experienced floating sensation, transient vertigo, and nausea. Neurological examination was unremarkable except for hypotonia and mild ataxia in the limbs, but orthostatic nausea and vomiting forced him to take a quiet, recumbent position. Magnetic resonance imaging of the
The neurological complications of lightning injury are not infrequent. However, scarce data are available on cerebellar infarction attributable to lightning injury. A 45 year old man was admitted to the emergency department because of lightning injury. The patient had a Glasgow coma scale score of
A case of a medial and caudal infarction of the midbrain in a 56 years old woman is reported. The clinical syndrome included a rapidly recovering sleepiness, an ophthalmoplegia related to damage to the caudal part of the oculomotor nuclear complex, a slow extrapyramidal dysarthria and a severe
Two full-term neonates, one with convulsions and intermittent generalized hypotonia and one with poor sucking, temperature instability, and lethargy, are reported. CT scan findings suggested cerebral arterial infarction. Arteriography revealed occlusion of the middle cerebral artery, unilaterally in
BACKGROUND
In 1946, Opalski reported two cases of Wallenberg syndrome with ipsilateral hemiparesis (IH). His hypothesis seems to be based on the view that IH is caused by post-decussating pyramidal tract damage. Afterwards, other researchers proposed a different hypothesis that ipsilateral sensory
We describe a patient with 22q13 deletion syndrome accompanied by epilepsy with continuous spike-waves during slow wave sleep (CSWS). This patient showed central hypotonia, mental retardation, disappearance of language, multiple facial anomalies, and intractable epilepsy. Overnight EEG showed CSWS
Twenty-nine patients with acute atherothrombotic ischemic stroke and 36 patients with acute Q-wave myocardial infarction have been studied. Each group has been stratified into 2 subgroups: patients of subgroups A received an ACE inhibitor perindopril in the complex therapy from the 1st day of
Five patients were examined suffering from bilateral paramedian thalamic infarction, caused by occlusion of the posterior paramedian thalamo-subthalamic arteries, when they begin from one single pedicle. All cases began with obnubilation or transitory coma, followed by hypersomnia. Four patients
BACKGROUND
The vein of Labbé is a superficial cortical vein, which drains the lateral surface of the temporal lobe. Thrombosis of the vein of Labbé can occur in the neonatal period. The developmental outcomes of infants who had vein of Labbé thrombosis are unknown as few studies of outcomes
