We present the case of an elderly male with hyperkinetic movements of the right arm and leg due to a small hemorrhage in the lateral aspect of the left lateral ventricle atrium. As per our database search, this is a unique presentation of a stroke in this particular location.
A variety of involuntary speech phenomena as for example palilalia have been described as consequences of neurological disorders. Palilalia is the involuntary repetition of syllabels, words and phrases in ongoing speech. We describe a 73 year old woman who suffered from a hypertensive thalamic
Orthotopic liver isotransplantation was performed in one group of Lewis rats using cuffs for the portal vein and the infrahepatic vena cava, stents for the hepatic artery and the bile duct. Three other groups were also investigated: group A, normal rats; group B, sham-transplanted rats (clamping of
Using the dye-dilution method (indigo carmine), the authors studied the central hemodynamics in 46 people, including 36 patients with arterial aneurysms in the acute period of subarachnoidal hemorrhage and 10 healthy subjects (a control group). Hyperkinetic, hypokinetic and normokinetic types of the
We describe a rare case of splenic arteriovenous fistula and venous aneurysm which developed after splenectomy in a 40-year-old woman who presented with epigastralgia, watery diarrhoea, repeated haematemesis and melaena caused by hyperkinetic status of the portal system and bleeding of oesophageal
Cerebral hemorrhage is usually associated to many cardiac disorders, mimicking acute coronary syndrome. We relate a case of a postmenopausal woman presenting at emergency room for acute coronary syndrome and whose evaluation revealed a subarachnoidal hemorrhage, normal coronary arteries, and a
In patients with intracerebal hemorrhage, cardiac dysfunction is a common phenomenon. Tako-tsubo cardiomyopathy is characterized by complete reversibility and therefore may constitute an entity with a favorable outcome. In this case report the authors describe a previously healthy 23-year-old man
Background. First described in 2005, inverted takotsubo is one of the four stress-induced cardiomyopathy patterns. It is rarely associated with subarachnoid hemorrhage but was not previously reported after intraparenchymal bleeding. Purpose. We reported a symptomatic case of inverted takotsubo
A 94-year-old woman was admitted to our hospital because of altered mental status and cerebellar ataxia of left upper and lower extremities. A brain CT scan revealed a right cerebellar hemorrhage approximately 15 cc. Plasma brain natriuretic peptide (BNP) value on admission was 1,064.6 pg/ml.
We determined the dose-response relationship of systemic hemodynamics with graded intravenous infusions of sodium acetate (0.75, 1.50 and 3.00 microEq kg-1 min-1) in a group of dogs in the euvolemic state (N = 10) and in animals submitted to severe hemorrhagic shock (N = 7). Sodium acetate had a
Four patients with hepatocellular carcinoma, shunting of blood from the hepatic artery to the portal vein, and hyperkinetic portal hypertension were treated by transcatheter embolization of the hepatic artery. In three acutely bleeding patients variceal hemorrhage was controlled by the embolization.
We present a case of a 34-year-old woman with cardiogenic shock after successful resuscitation. In the medical history migraine was known. Emergency echocardiography demonstrated left ventricular dysfunction with hypokinetic basal and midventricular segments and hyperkinetic apex. Cerebral computed
