Chorea, transverse myelitis, neuropathy and a distinctive MRI: Paraneoplastic manifestations of probable small cell lung cancer
No full textParaneoplastic chorea occurs most commonly in association with small cell lung cancer, often in combination with other paraneoplastic phenomena and sometimes with distinctive basal ganglia T2-weighted MRI hyperintensities. A case of acute-onset chorea is presented in which this phenomenon, combined with transverse myelitis, neuropathy and the described characteristic MRI changes prompted positron emission tomography scanning, in which evidence of probable small cell cancer was uncovered.T.J. Kleinig, P.D. Thompson and C.S. Kneebon
Reversible cerebral vasoconstriction, internal carotid artery dissection and renal artery stenosis
No full textReversible cerebral vasoconstriction is a rare and poorly understood syndrome, without clear diagnostic criteria. It has been described in association with multiple disorders, but has only been reported rarely in the setting of carotid artery dissection and, to our knowledge, never before in association with renal artery stenosis.DK Field, TJ Kleinig, PD Thompson and TE Kimbe
Acute convexity subarachnoid haemorrhage: a cause of aura-like symptoms in the elderly
No full textThe definitive version may be found at www.wiley.comLate-life onset aura-like symptoms are not rare and can be potentially misdiagnosed as transient ischaemic attacks. The cause is often obscure. Four cases of recurrent aura-like symptoms are presented in whom acute convexity subarachnoid haemorrhage (SAH) contralateral to symptoms was demonstrated. Three experienced subsequent events or groups of events triggered by recurrent SAH. Negative diffusion-weighted imaging, normal electroencephalography and slow symptom march with complete resolution argued against ischaemic and epileptic causes. Aura-like symptoms in the elderly should be investigated with imaging modalities most sensitive for detecting subarachnoid blood, in particular gradient echo magnetic resonance imaging.TJ Kleinig, M Kiley & PD Thompso
