Glossopharyngeal neuralgia, asystole, and seizures occurred in a patient with an internal carotid occlusion and external carotid stenosis. Swallowing was the triggering mechanism for these events. Mechanical stimulation of the pharynx failed to reproduce the symptoms. An ischemic injury to the
A case of glossopharyngeal neuralgia associated with seizures, syncope, bradycardia, and hypotension is presented. Intracranial section of the 9th cranial nerve and the upper filaments of the 10th cranial nerve resulted in the resolution of all symptoms. The literature is reviewed and the
Vagoglossopharyngeal neuralgia (VGPN) is a very rare condition. VGPN with convulsive like attack is even rarer All of the cases had their head turned to the opposite side of facial pain. Hemifacial spasm occurring concurrently with VGPN has never been reported. Herein, we present the first case of
A patient with trigeminal neuralgia experienced a generalized seizure and a prolonged syncopal episode. He was found to be asystolic during the syncopal episode. There was no recurrence of loss of consciousness after implantation of a pacemaker. Mechanical stimulation of the trigeminal nerve during
Background: A reality of the current political and legal environment is that while marijuana and cannabis-based products remain not approved for human consumption at the federal level in the United States, several states have authorized use for constituents. While state lines represent
OBJECTIVE
To review the pharmacology, pharmacokinetics, efficacy, and safety of lacosamide, a new agent for use as adjunctive treatment in partial-onset seizures and a potential agent for treatment of neuropathic pain.
METHODS
A MEDLINE search (1966-July 2009) was conducted using the key words
BACKGROUND
The US Food and Drug Administration (FDA) approved pregabalin in December 2004 for the treatment of neuropathic pain associated with diabetic peripheral neuropathy and postherpetic neuralgia. Pregabalin is the first drug approved in the United States and in Europe for both conditions. In
The authors present a 56-year-old-man with idiopathic glossopharyngeal neuralgia, complicated by cardiac disturbance with asystole and complex partial seizures. The mechanism of epileptic seizures was released due to transient brain ischaemia, which was caused by cardiac disturbance with asystole,
A population pharmacokinetic (PK) model was developed to characterize the properties of pregabalin extended-release (ER) in healthy volunteers and was subsequently applied to patient data from efficacy/safety studies investigating pregabalin ER for postherpetic neuralgia, fibromyalgia, and
The occurrence of a first epileptic seizure, spinal or brainstem paroxysmal symptom and cranial neuralgia during 25 years after onset was studied in a population-based multiple sclerosis (MS) cohort of 255 patients. Epileptic seizures occurred in 20, paroxysmal symptoms in 11 and cranial
