A 70-year-old man presented with two months of worsening cognitive impairment, hallucinations, and difficulty speaking, with superimposed headaches. Cerebrospinal fluid analysis was notable for lymphocytic pleocytosis and elevated protein. Imaging studies revealed multiple acute and subacute
BACKGROUND
Cerebral amyloid angiopathy is a major cause of lobar hemorrhage in older adults, and of microvascular ischemic disease. The rarest form of this disease is an inflammatory form causing seizures. It is important to recognize because the patients usually respond to a brief course of
Cerebral amyloid angiopathy (CAA) is the second most common cause of non-traumatic intracerebral haemorrhage (ICH) accounting for 12-15% of lobar haemorrhages in the elderly. Definitive diagnosis of CAA requires histological evaluation. We aimed to evaluate the spectrum of cerebrovascular changes in
BACKGROUND
Although migraine usually begins in the early decades of life, late onset of migraine with aura is occasionally observed and can occur without headache, causing confusion in the differential diagnosis.
METHODS
A 72-year-old man presented with recurrent episodes of visual aura lasting for
A 75-year-old man with a history of atrial fibrillation (AF) and anticoagulant therapy presented with a headache. Cerebral amyloid angiopathy (CAA) was diagnosed after MRI of the brain revealed cortical superficial siderosis, lobar intracerebral hemorrhage, and lobar microbleeds. Anticoagulant
Cerebral amyloid angiopathy-related inflammation (CAA-ri) is a rare clinical entity, characterized by headaches, seizures, rapidly progressive cognitive decline, behavioral changes and magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) findings underlying the autoimmune and inflammatory reaction at the Cerebral amyloid angiopathy related inflammation (CAAri) is becoming increasingly recognised as a subset of cerebral amyloid angiopathy (CAA). CAAri generally presents with subacute cognitive decline, headaches, seizures, behavioral changes, and focal neurological deficits. We describe a patient who
OBJECTIVE
To identify the clinical and radiologic features that should raise suspicion for the pseudotumoral presentation of cerebral amyloid angiopathy-related inflammation (CAA-I).
METHODS
We retrospectively reviewed the characteristics of 5 newly diagnosed and 23 previously reported patients in
BACKGROUND
Convexity subarachnoid haemorrhage (cSAH) is a rare type of spontaneous, non-traumatic, and nonaneurysmal SAH characterised by blood collections in one or more cortical sulci in the convexity of the brain; the aetiology varies. We report a clinical case series of 3 patients with cSAH
Background and Purpose- To determine whether migraine, which has often been described as an inaugural manifestation in monogenic cerebrovascular syndromes, is associated with cerebral amyloid pathology, we assessed migraine and its correlation with magnetic resonance imaging markers in Hereditary
A male with probable cerebral amyloid angiopathy (CAA)-related inflammation presented with headache and subacute hemi-paresis. After admission he developed a disturbance of consciousness and a CT brain scan showed oedema with significant midline shift. He was treated with corticosteroids with prompt
A case of multiple cerebral hemorrhage in the bilateral parietal lobes related to cerebral amyloid angiopathy (CAA) is reported. A 66-year-old man was admitted to our hospital because of headache and vomiting on Feb. 21, 1983. He had no history of hypertension, diabetes mellitus, recent head injury,
Clinical and computed tomographic findings in 24 patients with hereditary cerebral hemorrhage with amyloidosis-Dutch type were reviewed. The common initial symptoms were headache and vomiting. Computed tomographic scans showed 50 hypodense and 49 hyperdense cortical lesions and in 20 patients the
Cerebral amyloid angiopathy-related inflammation (CAA-ri) is a rare and treatable variant of CAA likely due to an autoimmune response directed toward beta-amyloid deposits. Cognitive and behavioral manifestations are the most common symptoms, followed by focal neurological signs, headache and
OBJECTIVE
We want to report an extremely rare condition, brain abscess associated with cerebral amylid angiopathy and hemorrhage.
METHODS
We report on a 64-year-old woman who presented initially with moderate fever and headache. She was initially misdiagnosed with a bleeding tumor or arteriovenous
