Headache is one of the commonest symptoms in neurology. It can be present among many other somatic illnesses. There are many aetiological factors. Pathogenetic mechanisms are unknown. There is a significant number of patients with headache, especially with vascular headache, (about 15%), and
BACKGROUND
Cysticercosis due to Taenia solium is a cause of adult-acquired seizures and epilepsy even in patients with only calcified larval cysts. Transient perilesional brain oedema is seen around the calcified foci but its importance, association with seizures, incidence, and pathophysiology are
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
BACKGROUND
Acute cerebral edema is a significant cause of death in patients treated for diabetic ketoacidosis and hyperglycemic hyperosmolar syndrome.
METHODS
We present the case of a 44-year-old African American woman admitted with acute severe headache and diagnosed with diabetic hyperglycemic
A 13-year-old hypertensive girl with a history of severe headaches following exercise developed circulatory collapse after "squat jumps." Pulmonary edema was present without evidence of a cerebral mass. The patient died with increased intracranial pressure despite decompressive craniectomy.
This review summarizes recent research on high altitude cerebral edema (HACE) and on the eye with focus on the retina and optic nerve as visible brain tissue at high altitude. Hemosiderin deposits in the corpus callosum have been characterized as rather specific long-lasting footprints of HACE,
In a retrospective study, we report the clinical characteristics of chronic brain oedema (CBO) in 34 patients with neurocysticercosis (NCC) who presented diffuse brain oedema upon computed tomography (CT) as a common point. All patients received dextrochlorpheniramine, and, 94.1% of them also
An 11-year-old male was admitted because of frequent vomiting and truncal ataxia which had lasted for over one week. He had clear consciousness but slowly-progressive mild headache and ataxic gait. Cranial CT revealed a 4 cm hematoma in the right cerebellar hemisphere. Angiography showed a 2 x 2 cm
High altitude headache (HAH) has been defined by the International Headache Society as a headache that appears within 24 hours after ascent to 2,500 m or higher [1••]. The headache can appear in isolation or as part of acute mountain sickness (AMS), which has more dramatic symptoms than the headache
Background: Headache is a common complaint among children presenting to the emergency department (ED) and can be due to serious neurologic and nonneurologic diagnoses (SNNDs). We sought to characterize the children discharged from the ED
The most frequent complication of an acute cerebral lesion is brain edema. With increasing size of brain edema an increase in intracranial pressure is observed. This leads to decreased cerebral perfusion and brain death. Cerebral edema can be subdivided into three groups: vasogenic, cytotoxic and
OBJECTIVE
To draw attention to the syndrome of the trephined as a potential cause for orthostatic headaches without cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) leak.
BACKGROUND
Orthostatic headaches typically result from CSF leaks but sometimes may occur in conditions without any evidence of CSF leakage.
METHODS
A
The incidence of headache at the onset of relapsing-remitting pediatric multiple sclerosis (MS) is more frequent than in the adult MS population, but headache as the only symptom of a relapse, both in adults and children, is unusual. Here we describe the case of a 5-year-old child who developed MS
Syndromes thought to have cerebral venous hypertension as their core, such as idiopathic intracranial hypertension and jugular foramen outlet obstruction, classically result in headaches. Do they provide an insight into the cause of the headache that commonly occurs at altitude? The classic theory
Systemic lupus erythematosus is a multifactorial autoimmune disease of complex etiology, which may be associated with cognitive dysfunction, seizures, and headache. The authors present an unusual presentation of systemic lupus erythematosus complicated by global cerebral edema and subarachnoid
