We describe 4 siblings with spastic paraparesis and peroneal amyotrophy who were prone to severe pain and painful dysesthesias, tetraparesis and pyramidal signs during pyrexial episodes of variable etiology. These symptoms cleared almost completely in 10-20 days. Nerve conduction velocity was
We report two siblings with infantile onset seizures, severe developmental delay and spastic paraplegia, in whom whole-genome sequencing revealed compound heterozygous mutations in the AP4S1 gene, encoding the σ subunit of the adaptor protein complex 4 (AP-4). The effect of the predicted
METHODS
A 4-year-old sexually intact male mixed-breed dog was evaluated because of clinical signs of acute-onset pelvic limb ataxia, rapidly progressing to paraplegia with severe spinal hyperesthesia.
RESULTS
General physical examination revealed pyrexia, tachycardia, and tachypnea. Neurologic
We report a 3-year-old girl with idiopathic hypereosinophilic syndrome. She was admitted to our hospital because of fever, cough, significant eosinophilia (16,500/microliter) and an elevated serum IgE level (114,685 u/ml). After wheezes continued for several days, paraplegia, dysuria and dyschezia
A 55-year old Sudanese physician presented with one month history of diarrhea, loss of weight (10 kg) and low grade nocturnal fever. Following colonoscopy, he rapidly developed paraparesis and retention of urine. Magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) of the spinal cord showed low cord lesion suggestive
Acute myelopathy with sudden paraplegia is a very rare manifestation of meningococcal meningitis, with only a few cases reported in the literature. In almost all previously reported cases, other clinical manifestations of meningitis, such as fever, headache, and neck stiffness preceded acute
Malignant hyperthermia (MH) is a rare life threatening inherited disorder that is triggered by drugs used for general anesthesia in susceptible persons. The symptoms include rapid increase of body temperature and severe muscle contractions. The present study includes 3 cases of MH and highlights the
Spinal cord ischemia is a rare complication after abdominal aortic surgery and has been attributed to surgical devascularization of the spinal cord, atheroembolization of the cord circulation, or hypoperfusion of cord structures secondary to hypotension or cord edema. We present a diabetic,
The use of non-invasive microwave energy to produce spinal cord injuries with intraspinal hyperthermia was studied in experimental animals. Lesions were produced with external beam microwave irradiation at 915 MHz in rabbits, using intraspinal temperature levels from 40 to 43 degrees C., and periods
Background: Pneumonia and septicemia have the greatest impact on reduced life expectancy in persons with spinal cord injury (SCI). Fever is often the first presenting symptom of infection or inflammation. Thermoregulatory dysfunction in persons with SCI may preclude a typical febrile response to
Three infants with coarctation of the thoracic aorta, patent ductus arteriosus (PDA), and ventricular septal defect (VSD) underwent repair of the coarctation in three different institutions. Despite a technically uncomplicated operation, each was noted to have significant paraplegia postoperatively.
