CONCLUSIONS: Clinical exam bears more weight than imaging in suspected brainstem infarcts. With the increasing use of DWI as the imaging of choice in acute stroke, DWI negative stroke must be considered in patients who present with classic brain stem infarcts with negative imaging to prevent delay in therapy as these patients may still be a candidate for thrombolysis.Disclosure: Dr. Nalleballe has nothing to disclose.

The Utility of Factor VIII Infusion in a Rare Case of SHAM Syndrome (P4.343)
Conclusions: Genetic testing confirmed the presence of SHAM syndrome with an 83 kb deletion involving both F8 and BRCC3 genes responsible for severe hemophilia and Moyamoya disease respectively. This case illustrates the first phenotypically and genetically confirmed adult case of SHAM syndrome with intracerebral hemorrhage and highlights the utility/safety of factor VIII infusion in this case.Disclosure: Dr. Roh has nothing to disclose.
