diplopia/infarction

We describe a patient who presented with a 1-h history of vertical diplopia and nystagmus and was found to have acute left ventrolateral thalamic infarction on the diffusion-weighted magnetic resonance imaging (DWI MRI). This is the first case report demonstrating that vertical diplopia and

OBJECTIVE To determine the causes, clinical characteristics, and localizing value of divergence paresis, which is characterized by acquired and uncrossed diplopia when viewing distant targets, fusion when viewing near targets, and no limitation of ocular ductions. Controversy persists regarding the

The incidence and mechanism of diplopia were investigated in 31 patients with Wallenberg's syndrome resulting from acute dorsolateral medullary infarction. Diplopia was found in 10 of 31 patients (32%), with 5 patients reporting vertical diplopia alone and 5 reporting vertical and horizontal

We report a case of a 54-year-old man with sudden-onset double-vision. On admission, neurological examination showed upward and downward gaze palsy on voluntary and smooth pursuit movements, and vertical oculocephalic maneuver elicited a full upward and downward response. Bell's phenomenon,

We report a patient with partial oculomotor paresis due to midbrain infarction. A 69-year-old man noticed diplopia suddenly. Ptosis, and impaired adduction and supraduction were found in the right eye. The pupillary size and light reflexes were normal on both sides. Magnetic resonance imaging

Caudal paramedian midbrain infarction (CPMI) is an extremely rare form of ischemic stroke and related clinical studies are scarce. Our aim is to investigate the clinical features, neuroradiological findings and stroke etiology of CPMI. We conducted a retrospective study of 12 patients with CPMI,

A 36-year-old male complained of double-vision and pain of left orbita. On admission, T1-weighted Gd-enhanced MR image of his head showed high intensity lesion in the left carvenous sinus, and his chest X-P showed multiple coin lesions. Microscopic findings of lung open biopsy specimen showed

Introduction - Tetralogy of Fallot (TOF) is the most common form of cyanotic congenital heart disease (CHD). Adults with surgically uncorrected forms of this condition are extremely rare, since operation is recommended in childhood to prevent cyanosis. Cyanotic CHD increases the risk of

Two patients were assessed for acute onset of diplopia. Clinical examination revealed upbeat nystagmus, exotropia, and internuclear ophthalmoplegia (INO). Both patients had vascular risk factors; acute ischemic stroke affecting ponto-mesencephalic junction was suspected. Magnetic resonance imaging

OBJECTIVE To assess the imaging and clinical features of patients with an artery of Percheron infarction comprehensively. METHODS Of 6539 patients with a first-ever stroke, 18 patients with a Percheron infarction were enrolled, and their images and clinical data were retrospectively
