Reversible cerebral vasoconstriction syndrome in a patient with Takayasu's arteritis.
We herein present the first reported case of reversible cerebral vasoconstriction syndrome (RCVS) in Takayasu's arteritis (TA), in a patient with severe thunderclap headache and generalized tonic-clonic seizure. Magnetic resonance imaging and angiography revealed posterior reversible encephalopathy syndrome, followed by severe vasoconstriction in multiple arteries. RCVS should be included in th...
متن کاملReversible cerebral vasoconstriction syndrome.
Reversible cerebral vasoconstriction syndrome (RCVS) is an under-recognised condition. It is characterised by sudden and severe headaches (of "thunderclap" type) associated with multifocal reversible narrowing of the intracranial arteries on neuroradiology. The diagnosis is often established with the resolution of headaches and vasoconstriction. We report two patients with RCVS and review the a...
متن کاملReversible cerebral vasoconstriction syndrome.
Reversible cerebral vasoconstriction syndromes (RCVS) are a group of disorders that have in common an acute presentation with headache, reversible vasoconstriction of cerebral arteries, with or without neurological signs and symptoms. In contrast to primary central nervous system vasculitis, they have a relatively benign course. We describe here a patient who was diagnosed with RCVS.
متن کاملReversible cerebral vasoconstriction syndrome.
BACKGROUND Reversible cerebral vasoconstriction syndrome is characterized by thunderclap headache associated with multifocal vasoconstriction of cerebral arteries in patients without aneurysmal subarachnoid hemorrhage (SAH). The vasoconstriction reverts within three months. We report a 44-year-old man who had a thunderclap headache during sexual intercourse. A similar episode occurred at rest 3...
متن کاملCardiac asystole associated with seizures of right hemispheric onset
Ictal asystole is frequently underrecognized despite being a potentially lethal condition. We report two cases of ictal asystole with right hemispheric onset. These cases are unique since previous literature reports that seizures associated with bradyarrhythmias typically arise from left hemispheric foci. These cases further underscore the importance of clinical vigilance and the need of an enh...
