Neuro-neutrophilic disease: neuro-Behçet disease and neuro-Sweet disease.
“Neuro-Sweet disease (NSD)” was proposed as a distinct entity of encephalomeningitis in 1999 (1). Sweet disease has been considered as a multisystem inflammatory disorder characterized by painful erythematous plaques, and has been classified as a dermatologic disease. The plaques respond to systemic corticosteroids, and heal without scarring. It has been disclosed that aseptic neutrophilic infl...

متن کاملAbnormalities on Brain Susceptibility-weighted Imaging in Neuro-Sweet Disease
An 81-year-old woman presented with a one-week history of pyrexia (38.6°C), headache, acalculia, and hemianopia. Laboratory examinations revealed an elevated leukocyte count (10,000/mm), neutrophil count (8,200/mm), and erythrocyte sedimentation rate (43 mm/h). CSF study revealed pleocytosis (33/mm) and an elevated protein level (402 mg/dL). MRI showed leptomeningeal gadolinium enhancement (arr...
متن کاملOrbital emphysema causing syncope.
Orbital emphysema is an abnormal condition in which air is present within the orbit. We report a rare case of a 19-year-old man who suffered syncopic attacks caused by sniffles following orbital emphysema as a result of trauma. Treating rhinitis is important in patients with orbital emphysema, and patients with cardiac disorders in addition to those with this condition must be warned about the ...
متن کاملImaging of Neuro-Inflammation
Vasogenic edema is associated with BBB dysfunction, which allows an increase in the passage of plasma proteins and water into the extracellular compartment [3, 5]. This is the main type of edema associated with inflammation and will be the main focus of this thesis. In hydrocephalus, a rise in intraventricular pressure causes the cerebro-spinal fluid (CSF) to migrate through the ependyma into t...
