Almost 40 cases of spontaneous transdural spinal cord herniation have been reported in the literature. These patients often present with gait disturbance and sensory changes, and their condition is diagnosed as Brown-Séquard syndrome. The pathogenesis of this condition has remained poorly
A discogenic cervical headache is a subtype of cervicogenic headache (CEH) that arises from a degenerative cervical disc abnormality. The purpose of this study was to evaluate the clinical outcome of percutaneous endoscopic cervical discectomy (PECD) for patients with chronic cervical headache due
OBJECTIVE
To demonstrate the benefits of cervical spine manipulation with the patient under anesthesia as an approach to treating a patient with chronic cervical disk herniation, associated cervical radiculopathy, and cervicogenic headache syndrome.
METHODS
The patient had neck pain with radiating
A 43-year-old man had been suffering from exertional headache for 10 years. Sagittal sections on magnetic resonance imaging showed a Chiari type 1 malformation and a cerebellar arachnoid cyst. This syndrome, named hindbrain hernia headache, disappeared with oral acetazolamide. This treatment should
The causes of postural headache are usually associated with low intracranial pressure. However, there are still rare causes of posture-related headaches that are not associated with low intracraninal pressure and caused by pathologic processes. Herein, we report a patient with giant posterior
Spinal anesthesia (SA) is becoming increasingly popular among pediatric anesthetists. Postdural puncture headache (PDPH) has been reported in children. PDPH generally spontaneously resolves within a few days with bed rest and nonopioid analgesics, but it may last for several days. If the symptoms
A 40-year-old man had a 6-week history of severe frontal headaches and dry cough. Chest x-ray showed hilar adenopathy with bilateral parenchymal infiltrates. A diagnosis of atypical pneumonia was made. Four weeks later he was admitted with persistent headache. Infectious screen was negative. Brain
Superficial siderosis is a rare condition caused by deposition of hemosiderin in the central nervous system. In recent years, it has been used to identify dural defects connecting the intrathecal space with the intraspinal fluid-filled collection seen in patients with superficial siderosis. However
BACKGROUND
The current definition of cough headache includes provocation of the symptom by Valsalva manoeuvre, and it is generally believed that all cough headache results from a sudden increase in intracranial pressure. We sought to question that presumption and to determine whether the Valsalva
BACKGROUND
We describe the case of a 38 year old male with Marfan syndrome who presented with orthostatic headaches and seizures.
METHODS
The patient was diagnosed with Spontaneous Intracranial Hypotension secondary to CSF leaks, objectively demonstrated by MR myelogram with intrathecal contrast.
Hydatid disease is a parasitic infection affecting the brain in about 2% of the cases. Brain involvement is most commonly observed in children. Here, we report a 13-year-old male patient who presented with headache, nausea, and vomiting. Before cranial computed tomography (CT) was performed, the
OBJECTIVE
Chiari I malformation is a well-known disease involving caudal descent of the cerebellar tonsils and is generally considered to be a congenital condition. Acquired Chiari I malformations as a result of various causes are well described. An unusual case is reported in which regression of an
