A 70 year old man recovered from a left putamenal haemorrhage in 1984 with a residual mild right hemiparesis. In 1985 he presented following the sudden onset of inability to stand. The clinical findings of supranuclear ophthalmoplegia, bradykinesia and rigidity resembled those of progressive
Nine healthy male test subjects were exposed for 7 days to head-down tilting. Within 2 hours after exposure 500 ml of blood were withdrawn. This reduced pulse blood filling of all lung compartments, particularly upper (P less than 0.05) compartments, and decreased slightly finger circulation. The
Stress cardiomyopathy (SCM) is usually precipitated by a physiologically or psychologically stressful event. Although it occurs only rarely, hypoxia- and hypercapnia-induced sympathetic activation may also cause SCM. We present the case of a 37-year-old woman affected with SCM after a routine
The heart contractability and central hemodynamics were studied in 32 patients with peptic ulcer complicated by hemorrhage. The development of the phase syndrome of the heart hypodynamia and hypokinetic syndrome were revealed. In the post-operative period the repair of the central hemodynamics was
BACKGROUND
The myocardial dysfunction in nontraumatic sub-arachnoid hemorrhage (SAH) is not well understood. Borderline elevations of cardiac biomarkers, electrocardiographic repolarization abnormalities and systolic dysfunction have been reported but the clinical significance of these abnormalities
OBJECTIVE
To find out the incidence and importance of segmental wall motion abnormalities (SWMAs) of the left ventricle in noncoronary artery disease (CAD) and nontraumatic subarachnoid hemorrhage (SAH) patients.
METHODS
Nontraumatic SAH patients were evaluated with two-dimensional echocardiogram in
BACKGROUND
Electrocardiographic (ECG) and echocardiographic changes that are subsequent to aneurysmal subarachnoid hemorrhage (a-SAH) are commonly observed with a prevalence varying from 27% to 100% and 13% to 18%, respectively. There are sparse data in the literature about the pattern of ECG and
A 68-year-old man was admitted because of sudden onset gait disturbance and bradykinesia. He experienced left putaminal bleeding following mild right hemiparesis and emotional incontinence without any difficulties in his daily life since three years before admission. On neurological examination the
There have been few reports on secondary parkisonism caused by chronic subdual hemorrhage (CSDH). In most reports, rigidity-bradykinesia syndrome resolved gradually after decompressive operation for CSDH. We report a 74-year-old male patient who suffered from CSDH status post burr hole drainage
BACKGROUND
Crimean-Congo hemorrhagic fever (CCHF) involves the multi-organ systems. The involvement of the heart in adult patients has been described previously. We investigated the electrocardiographic and echocardiographic findings of pediatric patients with CCHF.
METHODS
Patients younger than 16
A 66-year-old woman presented with subarachnoid hemorrhage(SAH) caused by a ruptured aneurysm of the left middle cerebral artery. Electrocardiography (ECG) disclosed abnormalities resembling acute myocardial infarction. She underwent neck clipping of the aneurysm uneventfully. Sixteen days after
A patient with right thalamic hemorrhage developed left-sided hemi-inattention, indifference, motor neglect, and hypokinesia. He also developed a severe memory deficit at the time of hemorrhage. Observations in this patient suggest that, in addition to a syndrome of neglect and hypokinesia, an
Neglect is a unilateral lack of responsiveness to stimuli caused by visuospatial hemi-inattention, a unilateral representation deficit and/or a unilateral hypokinesia. It results most frequently from right-hemisphere brain damage, particularly of the parietal lobe but also of the frontal cortex, the
A patient with a right caudate hemorrhage demonstrated left limb hypokinesia but did not have sensory inattention or sensory extinction. The left-sided hypokinesia was increased by bilateral simultaneous movements (motor extinction).
Crimean-Congo hemorrhagic fever (CCHF) is a viral, tick-borne disease that can be fatal, especially in the adult patient population. CCHF involves multiple organ systems. Pericardial effusion, cardiac hypokinesia, T-wave changes, bundle branch block, and myocardial involvement can be seen as a
