Anatomical Findings of Hemiplegia Cruciata in Multiple Sclerosis.
Korean Journal of Clinical Neurophysiology.2014;16(1):39-41. doi:10.14253/kjcn.2014.16.1.39
Hemiplegia cruciata (HC) manifests as paralysis of the ipsilateral arm and contralateral leg. Herein, we report a 64-year-old man with weakness of the right leg and of the left arm after multiple sclerosis (MS). His brain and spine magnetic resonance imaging show a lower medulla lesion, which is extended to posterior part of C1 spine through cervicomedullary junction. HC usually results from stroke or trauma, but it is rare as presenting symptom of MS.

Japanese-B viral encephalitis (JE) usually has a monophasic illness pattern. A 45-year-old woman in an altered mentality had improved over 1 month. About 1 week after the initial improvement, the patient became comatose with aggravated EEG and MRI findings. Assays of cerebrospinal fluid and serum were positive for the IgM antibody to Japanese-B virus. After intravenous immunoglobulin (IVIG) infusion, the patient recovered. We report a patient with JE who showed a biphasic illness pattern and recovered after IVIG therapy.

Rotational Vertigo and Unsteady Gait Associated with Vestibular Cortical Infarction.
Korean Journal of Clinical Neurophysiology.2014;16(1):32-34. doi:10.14253/kjcn.2014.16.1.32
A 77-year-old man developed acute vertigo and unsteady gait. Neurological examination revealed spontaneous left-beating nystagmus in the primary position. He fell to the left when walking without support. Magnetic resonance imaging showed an acute infarction involving the right parieto-temporal lobe. Although the vertigo and unsteady gait are most often associated with vestibular disorders involving the infratentorial structures, those may occur in cerebral infarction of the parieto-temporal lobe.

A Case of Wernicke's Encephalopathy Presenting as Acute Bilateral Wrist Drop.
Korean Journal of Clinical Neurophysiology.2014;16(1):27-31. doi:10.14253/kjcn.2014.16.1.27
Thiamine deficiency can cause peripheral polyneuropathy and Wernicke's encephalopathy. Wernicke's encephalopathy is characterized by ataxia, ophthalmoplegia, nystagmus, and confusion, and typically presents acute and rapidly progressive course, whereas peripheral neuropathy associated with thiamine deficiency manifests chronic and slowly progressive one. However, acute and rapidly progressive axonal polyneuropathy combined with Wernicke's encephalopathy is quite rare and unusual. Here, we describe a patient with Wernicke's encephalopathy who presented with acute bilateral axonal neuropathy.

A Case of Unusual Pituitary Apoplexy Presented as Aseptic Meningitis.
Korean Journal of Clinical Neurophysiology.2013;15(1):24-26. doi:10.14253/kjcn.2013.15.1.24
We encountered a case of pituitary apoplexy who presented with isolated headache and vomiting without visual disturbance or ophthalmoplegia. The cerebrospinal fluid examination was compatible with aseptic meningitis. A computed tomography revealed slightly high density in the pituitary fossa and suprasella area, but the signal change was very faint. Our case suggests that clinicians should take into account the possibility of pituitary apoplexy without visual disturbance or ophthalmoplegia, when aseptic meningitis is suspected.

Description
Korean Journal of Clinical Neurophysiology (Korean J Clin Neurophysiol) is the official Journal of The Korean Society of Clinical Neurophysiology, published twice a year in Korean or English. The journal publishes full-length original paper, case report, invited reviews, controversies in clinical neurophysiology, images in clinical neurophysiology, and other articles requested by editorial board. The journal aims to publish evidence-based, scientific and creative research materials in the field of clinical neurophysiology, clinical neurology, and neuroscience. All submitted manuscripts should be original and should not be considered by other scientific journals for publication at the same time.
