MCI subtypes are heterogeneous and preceded by different risk factors: A study on aMCI and naMCI incidence (P4.194)
Conclusions:Results suggested that aMCI and naMCI are inherently heterogeneous from the outset, illustrated by their different risk factors. Recognizing indicators of MCI prior to clinical presentation is critical in targeted interventions, early treatment, and prevention from rapid progression to dementia.Study Supported by:NIA grant: AG03949Sylvia and Leonard Marx FoundationDisclosure: Dr. Zammit has nothing to disclose.

A rare cause of stroke in young: PHACE syndrome (P1.253)
Conclusions:Neurocutaneous syndromes are typically diagnosed in childhood and can be a rare cause of stroke in young. Our patient suffered an ischemic stroke secondary to sequelae of undiagnosed PHACE syndrome. Early identification of neurocutaneous syndromes allows for proper surveillance, evaluation, and preventative education for development of complications.Disclosure: Dr. Fitzgerald has nothing to disclose.

Going Global in Neurology: An Innovative Neurology Curriculum for Trainees in Resource-limited Settings (P3.325)
Conclusions:Developing countries remain in need of neurologists. Our results suggest that comfort level in diagnosing and managing neurological patients can be challenging. Attitude questions on neuromuscular disorders saw the widest range of responses, which may reflect knowledge questions on neuromuscular disorders seeing the lowest scores. Collaborative global health curricula are a means of bridging knowledge and resources to better health care in such areas. Such experiences are mutually beneficial as it encourages UMMS trainees to consider alternatives in practice in resource-limited settings.Disclosure: Dr. Kim has ...

Three-dimensional modeling of Eagle syndrome
A 63-year-old man presented with transient episodes of left-hand weakness and right-eye vision loss following a lengthy airplane trip. The patient had reported right neck pain after sleeping awkwardly on the flight. Carotid dissection, paradoxical embolism, atherosclerotic occlusion, and thrombotic occlusion were considered possible etiologies of the associated carotid occlusion. Following a period of anticoagulation, a subsequent CT angiography (figure 1, A–C) revealed findings consistent with the styloid-carotid artery, or Eagle, syndrome.1 A 3-dimensional model was subsequently created (figure 2, A and B) utilizin...

Rupture of vertebral artery dissection aneurysm during 3D DSA
A 60-year-old man with a history of headache and vomiting had a subarachnoid hemorrhage on CT scan. On 2-dimensional (2D) digital subtraction angiography (DSA), a possible dissection aneurysm of the vertebral artery was seen (video 1 on the Neurology® Web site at Neurology.org). During 3D DSA, the aneurysm suddenly ruptured (video 2), with intracranial hemorrhage. The pressure of contrast was 200 psi, the rate was 2 mL/s, with a total volume of 12 mL. The patient was transferred to the intensive care unit but died of brain herniation and vasospasm. Few dissection aneurysms rupture during 3D DSA, but the risk is likely ...

Shortage of neurologists in the Brazilian Amazon
Neurologic disorders, including headache, epilepsy, and cerebrovascular disease, are common sources of medical consults and hospital admissions.1 Conditions such as stroke, the world's second leading cause of death, are medical emergencies that demand fast and efficient actions to reduce mortality and disability rates. These 2 points highlight the growing importance of neurology health care in developing countries.

Stroke Awareness In Outpatients. (P2.302)
CONCLUSIONS: General knowledge about CVRF is still insufficient in the outpatient population, even when assessed in the cardiology or neurology clinic. We believe that increased knowledge about stroke in outpatients, compared to inpatients, is due to higher educational level and a higher amount of family members with a history of stroke.

Is CT Scan in Patients with Suspected TIA Necessary: A quality improvement initiative (P2.307)
