2.Cervical Spinal Cord Infarction Presenting as Chest Pain in Patients with Acute Cerebellar Infarction
Journal of the Korean Neurological Association 2020;38(1):42-45
Spinal cord infarction is rare, especially cervical cord infarction is lesser than thoracic and lumbar level. We describe two cases of cervical cord infarction following cerebellar infarction with vertebral artery occlusion, which initially presented with chest pain and dyspnea. Blood supply for the cervical cord comes from anterior and posterior spinal artery, which originated from the distal vertebral or posterior inferior cerebellar arteries. Therefore, occlusion of unilateral vertebral artery could cause a cervical cord infarction.

We report a case of anterior choroidal artery territory infarction due to internal carotid artery dissection presumably caused by scuba diving. A 44-year-old man presented with left facial palsy and hemiparesis. He had a history of scuba diving for 18 months. His last dive was 7 days ago, and he skipped decompression practice at that dive. We assumed that repetitive traumas and microbubbles during scuba diving, which made endothelium vulnerable to damage may have caused a carotid dissection.

Cerebral autosomal dominant arteriopathy with subcortical infarcts and leukoencephalopathy (CADASIL) is a single-gene disease caused by mutations in the neurogenic locus notch homolog protein 3 (NOTCH3) gene. The spectrum of clinical manifestations is broad, ranging from asymptomatic to typical ischemic stroke, and mainly depends on the location of the mutations. We describe the case of a 76-year-old female without apparent neurological deficits. However, brain magnetic resonance imaging revealed confluent lesions in the white matter. Direct sequencing of the NOTCH3 gene revealed a novel pathogenic mutation, c.811T>A, which results in a mild phenotype. Therefore, this report will expand the current knowledge in regards to the mutations that can cause CADASIL.

7.Multifocal Inflammatory Leukoencephalopathy: Use of Thallium-201 SPECT and Proton MRS.

Journal of Korean Medical Science 2003;18(4):621-624
In a patient receiving 5-fluorouracil and levamisole, neurologic deficits suggest the cerebral demyelinating syndrome as a differential diagnosis. The authors report a patient diagnosed as multifocal inflammatory leukoencephalopathy for which thallium-201 ((201)Tl) single photon emission computed tomography (SPECT) and proton magnetic resonance spectroscopy (MRS) were employed as noninvasive diagnostic tools. (201)Tl SPECT study was negative and proton MRS showed an increase of choline and lactate and well preserved N-acetylaspartate. These findings support histopathologic findings of multifocal inflammatory leukoencephalopathy revealing demyelination with relative axonal sparing in the patient.

Echocardiography was done on 51 cases with various cardiovascular disease and on 23 cases of normal control subjects from April, 1981 to March, 1982 in the Department of internal medicine, Eul Ji General Hospital, Seoul, Korea. The results obtained were as follows: 1. The left ventricular mass estimated by the measurements made with standard convention was 261+/-8gm in patient group and 126+/-6gm in control group. With penn convention, the left ventricular mass of the patients group was 297+/-11gm and that of control group was 127+/-6gm. The differences between both conventions were significant statistically. 2. In measurements made with standard convention, those who showed increased left ventricular posterior wall thickness were 37 cases(73%) and those who showed increased left ventricular internal dimension were 15 cases(29%). On the other hand, number of cases who showed increased left ventricular mass were 45 cases(88%) and this results suggested estimation of left ventricular mass seems to be more useful method in the diagnosis of left ventricular hypertrophy than simple measurements of left ventricular posterior wall thickness of left ventricular internal dimension. 3. The correlation coefficient between left ventricular mass and maximum voltage of electrocardiography, left ventricular posterior wall thickness left ventricularinternal dimension was 0.70, 0.74 0.51 respectively in standard method and 0.82, 0.76, 0.44 respectively in penn convention. Left ventricular mass was correlated fairly closely with the maximum voltage of electrocardiography and left ventricular posterior wall thickeness, less closely with the left ventricular internal dimension.
