The symptom of burning orofacial pain may help to identify the site of ischaemia in otherwise pure motor strokes resulting from infarction of the ventral pons. A patient with hemiplegia due to ventral pontine infarction, in whom burning oral and mid-facial pain was a prominent initial symptom, is
The purpose of this study was to identify clinical predictors and anatomical structures involved in patients with pain after dorsolateral medullary infarction. Eight out of 12 patients (67%) developed poststroke pain within 12 days to 24 months after infarction. The pain occurred in the ipsilateral
We report the case of a 66-year-old female with hemiplegia cruciata and severe facial pain due to infarction of the cervicomedullary junction. She presented to the hospital with complaints of acute-onset left facial pain and gait disturbance. Neurological examination revealed narrow left palpebral
We reported a 71-year-old male with lateral medullary syndrome presented acute respiratory arrest after ataxic respiration. The patient had experienced transient diplopia repeatedly for about 2 weeks and then the developed persistent diplopia and vertigo. On the third day he was admitted to our
The genetic abnormality and clinical problems associated with sickle cell disease are described and exemplified by a report of a patient who presented during a crisis with facial pain and sensory changes in the distribution of the inferior dental nerve; investigations revealed that these were due to
Paroxysmal facial pain is a rare sequel to brainstem infarction. This is a report of a patient who developed paroxysmal facial pain with the exceptional features of a trigger zone and relative refractory pain-free periods in an area previously anesthetic after infarction of the brainstem. The
BACKGROUND
Pain symptoms related to cardiac ischemia can vary greatly from patient to patient. However, should emergency physicians consider the possibility of myocardial infarction in patients who present solely with dental pain?
OBJECTIVE
This is a systematic review of the literature investigating
One patient with a pontine infarct due to a fusiform basilar artery aneurysm and one with an arteriovenous malformation within the tectum of the mesencephalon developed intractable facial pain. This pain was relieved in both patients by radiofrequency lesions in the dorsal root entry zone of the
A case of a 65-year-old female patient is reported. Her chief complaint was facial pain, so she sought care from her general dental practitioner for evaluation of a suspected temporomandibular disorder, after repeated visits to the emergency department due to excruciating facial pain associated with
BACKGROUND
Pontine infarctions may produce combined motor, sensory, cerebellar, and cranial nerve dysfunction. Midline sensory complaints and facial pain are uncommon.
METHODS
Three patients are described with hypoesthesia and numbness of the midline facial area associated with dysarthria and
OBJECTIVE
To investigate the clinicoradiological manifestations of craniofacial bone infarcts in patients with sickle cell disease (SCD).
METHODS
After institutional review board approval, we identified 85 SCD patients who underwent head and neck magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) during a period of 5
Intracranial vertebral artery dissection (IVAD) is a potentially life-threatening disease, which usually presents with ischemic stroke or subarachnoid hemorrhage. IVAD presenting with isolated facial pain is rare, and no case with isolated trigeminal neuralgia- (TN-) like facial pain has been
Previous investigations have identified focal areas of alveolar bone tenderness, increased mucosal temperature, abnormal anesthetic response, radiographic abnormality, increased radioisotope uptake on bone scans, and abnormal marrow within the quadrant of pain in patients with chronic, idiopathic
During a 3-year period, 25 caudalis dorsal root entry zone (DREZ) operations were done for severe, facial pain. Intraoperative brainstem recordings were done before and after DREZ in all patients. Primary diagnosis included refractory trigeminal neuralgia, atypical headaches or facial pain,
Wallenberg syndrome, or lateral medullar syndrome, is the clinical presentation of the infarct in the territory of posterior inferior cerebellar artery. Its signs and symptoms include vertigo, nystagmus, diplopia, ipsilateral Horner syndrome, facial ruddiness and dry skin, dysphonia, dysphagia,
