Cerebrovascular Brainstem Diseases with Isolated Cranial Nerve Palsies

Cerebrovascular Diseases, 2002
There is a significant number of individual patients with cranial nerve palsies as the sole manifestation of MRI- and, less frequently, CT-documented small brainstem infarctions or hemorrhages. The 3rd and 6th nerves are most commonly involved and, less frequently, the 4th, 5th, 7th, and 8th nerves.

Cranial nerve involvement in Charcot–Marie–Tooth Disease

Journal of Clinical Neuroscience, 2017
Charcot-Marie-Tooth Disease (CMT) is a rare disorder with less than 200,000 cases reported in the US every year, making diagnosis challenging. MR and CT imaging has become more common in the evaluation of CMT to identify areas of disease involvement.A 27-year-old female from Guatemala with a past history of polio initially presented to the emergency ...

Multiple cranial nerve enlargement in Charcot-Marie-Tooth disease

Journal of Neurology, Neurosurgery & Psychiatry, 2020
Hypertrophy of peripheral nerves are commonly reported in patients with demyelinating forms of Charcot-Marie-Tooth disease (CMT).1 Herein, an under-recognised association with hypertrophy of multiple cranial nerves in a patient with CMT is described. A 39-year-old otherwise healthy man presented with a 2-month history of tension-type headaches without

Multiple cranial nerve enhancement in early infantile Krabbe’s disease

Neurology, 2000
Krabbe’s disease or globoid-cell leukodystrophy is an autosomal recessive disorder caused by a mutation of the galactocerebroside beta-galactosidase gene located at chromosome 14q31.1 The reduction of enzymatic activity affects the catabolism of galactosylceramide to ceramide and galactose.1 This disorder is characterized by an abnormal breakdown and ...

CT of cranial nerve involvement in external ear disease

1991
In malignant external otitis (MEO), the infection may spread from the external auditory meatus (EAM) along several routes: directly into the adjacent mastoid bone, anteriorly into the parotid gland and tem-poro-mandibular joint and inferiorly into the soft tissues of the infratemporal fossa.

α‐Synuclein pathology in the cranial and spinal nerves in Lewy body disease

Neuropathology, 2015
Accumulation of phosphorylated α‐synuclein in neurons and glial cells is a histological hallmark of Lewy body disease (LBD) and multiple system atrophy (MSA). Recently, filamentous aggregations of phosphorylated α‐synuclein have been reported in the cytoplasm of Schwann cells, but not in axons, in the peripheral nervous system in MSA, mainly in the ...

Monoparesis (monoplegia) and cranial mononeuropathy. Peripheral/cranial nerve and nerve root diseases.

Problems in veterinary medicine, 1992
Monoparesis (monoplegia) refers to partial (monoparesis) or complete (monoplegia) loss of voluntary motor function in a single limb. Cranial mononeuropathy implies that there is dysfunction referable to a single cranial nerve. These neurologic problems are generally associated with peripheral and cranial nerve lesions, respectively.

[Kawasaki disease and cranial nerve involvement: two cases].

Archives de pediatrie : organe officiel de la Societe francaise de pediatrie, 2016
CNS involvement, except classical lymphocytic meningitis, is exceptionally rare in Kawasaki disease. Herein, we report on two atypical cases of KD with cranial nerve inflammation. The first case presented supranuclear vertical palsy and the second case Bell palsy.

[Facial palsy, enhancement of cranial nerves and Lyme disease].

Journal de radiologie, 2000
Lyme disease involves multiple organ systems including in 10-15% of cases, the nervous system. Cranial neuropathies are observed in the second stage of the disease. The facial nerve is the most frequently affected nerve (20-30%). Facial nerve enhancement may be associated with cochleovestibular nerve abnormalities and can mimick an intracanalicular ...
