概要
Polyneuropathy, organomegaly, endocrinopathy or edema, M-spike, and skin manifestations (POEMS) syndrome is a rare multisystem disease. There are very few reports of stroke as the presenting manifestation of POEMS. We report a patient with ischemic stroke due to an underlying vasculopathy as the initial presentation of POEMS. This case highlights the importance of recognizing ischemic stroke as a presenting sign for POEMS as early diagnosis and treatment in patients with POEMS may prevent progression of multisystem involvement and may potentially stabilize the vasculopathy associated with it.
