Other causes can include aromatic L-amino acid decarboxylase deficiency, [9] postencephalitic Parkinson's, Tourette's syndrome, multiple sclerosis, neurosyphilis, head trauma, bilateral thalamic infarction, lesions of the fourth ventricle, cystic glioma of the third ventricle, herpes encephalitis, kernicterus and juvenile Parkinson's disease.
On 1 January 1999 the ICD-10 (without clinical extensions) was adopted for reporting mortality, but ICD-9-CM was still used for morbidity. Meanwhile, NCHS received permission from the WHO to create a clinical modification of the ICD-10, and has production of all these systems: ICD-10-CM, for diagnosis codes, replaces volumes 1 and 2. Annual ...
As of 2014, no treatment strategy has yet been investigated in a randomized clinical trial. [1] Verapamil, nimodipine, and other calcium channel blockers may help reduce the intensity and frequency of the headaches. [1] A clinician may recommend rest and the avoidance of activities or vasoactive drugs which trigger symptoms (see § Causes). [1]
The cause of IVH in premature infants, unlike that in older infants, children or adults, is rarely due to trauma. Instead it is thought to result from changes in perfusion of the delicate cellular structures that are present in the growing brain, augmented by the immaturity of the cerebral circulatory system, which is especially vulnerable to ...
Hemorrhagic transformation is a process which involves the bleeding of brain tissue that has been affected by the stroke and can take two forms: petechial hemorrhage and parenchymal hemorrhage. [1] HT can lead to further damage to the brain tissue and worsen the outcome of the initial stroke.
Ocular flutter is an opsoclonic disorder that results in horizontal saccades. [ 1 ] It is caused by damage to the brainstem paramedian pontine reticular formation cells or the cerebellar neurons controlling those cells.
ESUS is a diagnosis of exclusion based on radiological and cardiological examinations. For exclusion of haemorrhagic or lacunar strokes CT or MRI imaging is needed. Both procedures also allow detection of embolic pattern of ischemic lesions. 12-lead ECG and cardiac monitoring for at least 24 h with automated rhythm detection are mandated to exclude atrial fibrillation; echocardiography (TTE ...
