Topiramate is an antiepileptic drug with a beneficial clinical effect on various seizure types. Topiramate does not seem to be associated with serious adverse effects and is also well tolerated in pediatric patients. Only few cases of hypohidrosis have been described. This report presents one young
A 42-year-old man complained of severe left orbital pain for 7 months. The diagnosis of cluster headache was made on the basis of diagnostic criteria formed by the International Headache Society. Sumatriptan was effective in relieving pain to a certain degree, but the frequency of the occurrence of

The first patient with chronic paroxysmal hemicrania (CPH), a 41-year-old woman, first seen in 1961, was followed until an adequate treatment was found, 12 years later. Clinically, attack frequency and duration differed widely from the general pattern of cluster headache. Ocular variables, such as
The patient was a 70-year-old male with familial amyloidosis of Finnish type who complained of heat intolerance due to anhidrosis during outdoor activities in summer. A water-cooled TM-2 vest was tried for this patient to reduce his body heat during exercises. Following the morning activities
Exercise is a well-known stress test for uncovering heart or lung disease, but it can also stress other organs and unmask a range of medical disorders. Practical case examples are given in seven areas: anemia, headache, hematuria, gastrointestinal problems, seizure, anhidrosis, and hypothyroidism.

Diagnosing Horner Syndrome can be difficult in the setting of an incomplete triad. A 27-year-old man presented with unilateral eyelid droop and intermittent ipsilateral headaches, having already seen 7 physicians. Physical examination revealed unilateral ptosis but no pupillary miosis or facial
Since 1978, the authors have observed 7 cases of dissecting aneurysm in the internal carotid artery. Symptoms were severe headache and subsequent neurologic deficit in young persons (3 women, 4 men; mean age 35 years). The underlying pathology was spontaneous dissection of the cervical internal
Fabry disease is a rare, multiorgan disease. The most serious complications involve the kidney, brain and heart. This study aims to assess the effect of enzyme replacement therapy (ERT) using agalsidase-beta in children with Fabry disease. We carried out a nationwide, descriptive and observational
UNASSIGNED
Horner syndrome refers to a set of clinical presentations resulting from disruption of sympathetic innervation to the eye and adnexa. Classically, the clinical triad consists of ipsilateral blepharoptosis, pupillary miosis, and facial anhidrosis. Ocular sympathetic denervation may signify

OBJECTIVE
To examine whether topical glycopyrrolate could be an effective and safe treatment for facial
