Vestibular function in superficial siderosis
BACKGROUND Superficial siderosis (SS) is caused by repeated or continuous bleeding into the subarachnoid space that results in iron from hemoglobin (hemosiderin) being deposited on the surface of the brain. Clinically, the condition is characterized by sensorineural deafness, ataxia, and pyramidal signs. However the mechanism of peripheral vestibular disturbance was not revealed. We show the ve...

Case 1 An elderly patient presented with insidious onset of sensorineural hearing loss. The past history was unremarkable except for insidious onset of weakness of left lower limb. Physical examination revealed left hemiparesis with upgoing left plantar. Magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) of brain revealed a large flow void in the interpeduncular cistern suggestive of aneurysm arising from the to...

Cerebrovascular deposition of amyloid (cerebral amyloid angiopathy CAA) is most commonly recognized as a cause of spontaneous lobar intracerebral hemorrhage. On the basis of the noninvasive new MR imaging we would propose superficial cortical hemosiderosis and subarachnoid hemosiderosis as potentially useful new criteria to facilitate the diagnosis of CAA.

With great interest, we read the recent review article by Kumar entitled “Neuroimaging in Superficial Siderosis: An In-Depth Look,” published on-line ahead of print in the American Journal of Neuroradiology in September 2009. The author provides a thorough review of neuroimaging in superficial siderosis (SS) of the central nervous system and details important underlying causes of this phenomeno...

A 41-year-old woman presented with 2 months of dysarthria. Her history included 6 years of unsteadiness resulting in multiple falls and 10 years of intermittent urinary incontinence. She had a history of significant trauma including having been knocked over by a horse and being involved in 2 car accidents, 1 resulting in loss of consciousness and amnesia.
