Multiple cerebral infarction linked to underlying cancer: a review of Trousseau syndrome-related cerebral infarction
Br J Hosp Med (Lond). 2021 May 2;82(5):1-7. doi: 10.12968/hmed.2020.0696. Epub 2021 May 26.ABSTRACTTrousseau syndrome is a cancer-associated hypercoagulative state leading to venous or arterial thromboembolic events. Cerebral infarction is the most common result of arterial embolism and the pathogenesis is complicated, mainly associated with hypercoagulation and non-bacterial thrombotic endocarditis. On magnetic resonance imaging, multiple lesions are dispersed in more than two territories of the brain, often simultaneously involving the bilateral anterior and posterior circulation. Elevated plasma levels of D-dimer and fi...

White thrombus as a possible feature of atypical stroke etiology: < em > Coxiella burnetii < /em > as the primary cause of acute ischemic stroke
We describe a singular case report of a 62- year-old male with AIS related to the occlusion of the left middle cerebral artery. Thrombus-aspiration allowed retrieving a 6 millimeters white thrombus. The real-time polymerase chain reaction performed on the thrombus detected Coxiella Burnetii allowed the diagnosis of infective endocarditis (IE) and the identification of the specific pathogen. Coxiella Burnetii is an endemic, small, intracellular, gram-negative coccobacillus and it is a rare cause of IE. The management of AIS caused by IE remains controversial, although in the cases of major occlusion mechanical thrombectomy ...
