paresis/headache

BACKGROUND Cluster headache is a primary headache disorder characterized by periodic episodes of intense headache accompanied by autonomic symptoms. We report an unusual clinical presentation of cluster headache that was preceded by myoclonus and accompanied by hemiparesis. METHODS A 26-year-old man

We describe an 89-year-old woman who presented with an abrupt onset of headache and right hemiparesis. With the initial diagnosis of cerebral infarction, we started therapy using sodium ozagrel. The right hemiparesis worsened, however, and a continuous intravenous heparin injection showed no effect.

We report a rare complication of spinal anesthesia-divergence paresis-which is characterized by an acquired horizontal diplopia at distance without evidence for abducens palsy. A 64-yr-old man underwent prostatectomy under spinal anesthesia with 2.5 mL of dibucaine hydrochloride 0.3% injected

BACKGROUND Hemiparesis is a major symptom of chronic subdural hematoma (CSDH). Its severity does not always correlate with hematoma size. The authors analyzed hematoma thickness, pressure, and tension to clarify the mechanism of hemiparesis in CSDH patients. METHODS A burr-hole surgery was performed
