Neurogenic pulmonary edema (NPE) can result from various central nervous system disorders such as brain malignancies, traumatic brain injuries, infections, and seizures. Although the pathogenesis is not completely understood, NPE creates an increase in pulmonary interstitial and alveolar fluid. It
Background: Hyponatremia can be developed during hysteroscopic surgery with electrolyte-free irrigation fluid. We experienced severe hyponatremia with postoperative seizures and confirmed mild brain edema.
Neurogenic pulmonary edema (NPE) is a clinical entity that can occur following central nervous system disorders. However, NPE occurs quite rarely in early childhood, and there has only been one report about pediatric NPE associated with febrile seizures. Two cases are reported here. One case
Neurocysticercosis is a frequent cause of seizures in endemic countries. It is caused by the larvae of the tapeworm Taenia solium. The larvae once hosted in the cerebral parenchyma evolve into viable cysts, called the vesicular stage (with little or no inflammatory reaction), and may remain
Neurological disturbances may be present at high altitude independently of high altitude cerebral edema. We report here the case of a patient who experienced for the first time generalized seizures after spending a night at an altitude of 5200 m, with no preceding symptoms of acute mountain
In cases of cysticercosis, seizures and other symptoms occur in persons with only calcified brain lesions. The presence of perilesional edema has been documented in association with calcified lesions in symptomatic patients, but the frequency of this complication and characteristics of the patients
We describe eight cases of pediatric patients whose neuroimages performed after seizures revealed abnormalities that were compatible with edema surrounding calcified lesions and which disappeared in subsequent examinations.
We report a patient with a giant unruptured supraclinoid aneurysm treated by endovascular embolization by means of bare coils and implantation of a flow diverterstent. Eight weeks after the embolization, she presented with uncinate seizures. Neuroradiological examination revealed de novo
OBJECTIVE
It is unknown whether hypothermia can disrupt the progress of epileptogenesis. The present study aimed to determine the effect of hypothermia on brain edema and epileptogenesis and to establish whether brain edema is associated with epileptogenesis after severe status epilepticus
Intraparenchymal schwannomas of the brain are very rare, accounting for < 1% of intracranial schwannomas. We present a case of an 11-year-old boy with a left frontotemporal lobe schwannoma presented with seizure and neurogenic pulmonary edema. To our knowledge, this is the first case of
Acute pulmonary edema is one of the frequent causes of dyspnea encountered in everyday practice. It is broadly attributed to be either cardiogenic or noncardiogenic. It is usually treated with diuretics in addition to other medications depending on the underlying pathology. Here, we report a case of
Hyperbaric oxygen therapy (HBOT) for carbon monoxide (CO) poisoning is widely performed to prevent delayed neuropsychiatric syndrome. Although HBOT can generally be performed with safety, the appropriate management of HBOT still remains unestablished. A 31-year-old man was transferred to our
Data on the frequency and clinical relevance of neurogenic pulmonary edema (NPE) following epileptic seizures are limited. The aim of the present study was to analyze computed tomography (CT) examinations in patients with previous seizures.Incidence of NPE A case of neurogenic pulmonary edema following a grand mal epileptic seizure is presented. This condition is rather rare and the exact pathophysiology remains unknown, but it is believed that the event may be related to transitional increase of intracranial pressure during seizure attack. Pulmonary
We report a 48-year-old woman who developed convulsive seizures and cerebral atrophy after recovery from fulminant hepatitis B with coma and cerebral edema at the acute stage. Neurological disturbances and cerebral signs are rare sequelae of fulminant hepatic failure (FHF); only a few cases have
