OBJECTIVE
A principal reason to order a head CT scan for dizziness patients is to exclude stroke. As CT imaging is substantially limited in assessing for any acute lesions other than haemorrhage, the most important stroke syndrome adequately evaluated by CT is intracerebral haemorrhage (ICH). A
Herein, we present a patient diagnosed with dizziness due to a core vestibular projection injury following intracerebral hemorrhage (ICH). A 51-year-old female patient underwent conservative management for a spontaneous ICH in the left hemisphere (mainly affecting the basal ganglia and insular
A major challenge presently is not only to identify the genetic polymorphisms increasing risk to diseases, but to also find out factors and mechanisms, which can counteract a risk genotype by developing a resilient phenotype. The objective of this study was to examine acquired and innate vagal
Venous compliance in the legs of aging man has been found to be reduced with decreased blood pooling (capacitance response) in dependent regions, and this might lead to misinterpretations of age-related changes in baroreceptor function during orthostasis. The hemodynamic response to hypovolemic
Resuscitative endovascular balloon occlusion of the aorta (REBOA) has become an increasingly popular alternative to emergency thoracotomy and aortic cross-clamping in patients with exsanguinating hemorrhage.1 This new capability is increasingly being used in non-trauma situations.2 3 This report
Lumbar chemical sympathectomy has been performed using fluoroscopic guidance for needle positioning. An 84 year old woman with atherosclerosis obliterans was referred to the pain clinic for intractable cold allodynia of her right foot. A thermogram showed decreased temperature of both feet compared
Endoscopic hemostasis is a useful treatment modality for gastric ulcer bleeding. However, it is sometimes difficult to achieve hemostasis in cases with arterial bleeding, especially those complicated with vascular abnormalities. We describe a case with gastric ulcer bleeding from a variant left
BACKGROUND
This report describes a pontine hemorrhage in a patient following implantation of an intrathecal drug delivery system.
METHODS
A 70-year-old old female patient with metastatic breast carcinoma underwent placement of an implantable intrathecal drug delivery system. Before implant she was
BACKGROUND
Chronic subdural hematoma(CSDH) can be treated by a relatively simple burr hole surgery. Acute subarachnoid hemorrhage (SAH) occurring after surgery for CSDH has been reported as a rare but severe complication.
METHODS
An 88-year-old female complained of progressive headache and dizziness
Transfusion of blood products occurs frequently as part of the treatment of post-partum haemorrhage, but since it is both expensive and has potentially severe complications, prescription of blood products should be restricted. The aim of this study was to examine if restrictive red BACKGROUND
The symptoms of sudden severe headache and/or diminished consciousness characterize the onset of aneurysmal subarachnoid hemorrhage (SAH). However, several studies have suggested that some patients show an atypical presentation at the onset: symptoms lacking sudden headache and diminished
A 67-year-old Korean woman attended our hospital complaining of a severe headache. A brain computed tomography scan showed conglomerated, high-density, calcified nodules in the left temporo-occipito-parietal area and high-density subarachnoid hemorrhage in the basal cisterns. Magnetic resonance
A 55-year-old woman was admitted to our hospital because of sudden onset of dizziness and gait ataxia. A brain CT scan revealed a small cerebellar haemorrhage located in the right vermis. Brain MR angiography revealed left persistent primitive trigeminal artery (PPTA) and basilar artery (BA)
