cadasil/headache

Occasionally, patients with Cerebral Autosomal Dominant Arteriopathy with Subcortical Infarcts and Leukoencephalopathy (CADASIL) present atypical features such as confusion, coma, or nonconvulsive status epilepticus. Acute focal neuropsychological syndrome revealing the disease has been poorly

A 31 year-old man with a history of a depressive episode presented with acute severe 'thunderclap' headache. Magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) revealed abnormalities typical of cerebral autosomal dominant arteriopathy with subcortical infarcts and leucoencephalopathy (CADASIL), which was subsequently

We reviewed the characteristics of headache in patients with cerebral autosomal dominant arteriopathy with subcortical infarcts and leukoencephalopathy (CADASIL), to verify the appropriateness of the International Classification of Headache Disorders, second edition (ICHD-II) criteria. Available

A 68-year-old female patient was admitted in our clinic with severe frontal bilateral headache, dizziness, depression and cognitive decline in the context of a previously diagnosed acromegaly. She also had high blood pressure, dyslipidemia, secondary diabetes mellitus. Acromegaly was caused by a

Differential diagnosis of migraine, can be difficult, especially of migraine with aura. On the one hand, some diseases can produce symptoms similar to migraine (cerebral aneurysm before rupture, reversible cerebral vasoconstriction syndrome). On the other hand, migraine with aura and some other

BACKGROUND The term CADASIL (cerebral autosomal dominant arteriopathy with subcortical infarcts and leukoencephalopathy) refers to an autosomal dominant hereditary arteriopathy of the brain that is characterised by headache, recurring strokes and progressive cognitive deterioration. We report the

Cerebral autosomal dominant arteriopathy with subcortical infarcts and leukoencephalopathy (CADASIL) is a recently described neurovascular disease affecting young to middle age individuals. The disease is caused by mutations in the Notch3 gene located in the short arm of chromosome 19. Clinically,

Cerebral autosomal dominant arteriopathy with subcortical infarcts and leukoencephalopathy (CADASIL) is a small-vessel disease of the brain that is characterized by headache, recurring lacunar strokes, mood changes and progressive cognitive deterioration. The disease is transmitted with an autosomal

Cerebral autosomal dominant arteriopathy with subcortical infarctions and leucoencephalopathy (CADASIL) is an inherited CNS disease, which is caused by mutations in the NOTCH3 gene. Selective disorders of small vessels underlie the disease pathogenesis. Clinically CADASIL is characterized by

Cerebral autosomal dominant arteriopathy with subcortical infarcts and leukoencephalopathy (CADASIL) is a genetically linked neurologic disease characterized by recurrent strokes and progressive or stepwise dementia, with or without migraine-like headaches, seizures, and pseudobulbar palsy. We

Cerebral autosomal dominant arteriopathy with subcortical infarcts and leukoencephalopathy (CADASIL) is caused by mutations in the Notch3 gene on chromosome 19. The condition manifests itself clinically typically in the third to fifth decade with migraine and recurrent episodes of stroke or

The case of a 72-year-old demented woman having episodes of strokes without any risk factors for cardiovascular disease is reported. Her elder brother and sister have also had stroke episodes since their middle age. She experienced hallucinations, delusions, and recurrent headaches since the age of

Cerebral Autosomal Dominant Arteriopathy with Subcortical Infarcts and Leukoencephalopathy (CADASIL) is a genetically determined disease of the cerebral vessels, characterized by recurrent ischemic strokes, dementia, and degeneration of the cerebral white matter. The condition is caused by a
