What Causes Facial Nerve Palsy?
Discussion Facial nerve palsy has been known for centuries, but in 1821 unilateral facial nerve paralysis was described by Sir Charles Bell. Bell’s palsy (BP) is a unilateral, acute facial paralysis that is clinically diagnosed after other etiologies have been excluded by appropriate history, physical examination and/or laboratory testing or imaging. Symptoms include abnormal movement of facial nerve. It can be associated with changes in facial sensation, hearing, taste or excessive tearing. The right and left sides are equally affected but bilateral BP is rare (0.3%). Paralysis can be complete or incomplete at prese...

Seizure syndrome as a first manifestation of solitary tumor-like mass lesion of PACNS: Two case reports
Rationale: Primary angiitis of the central nervous system (PACNS) is an inflammatory disease involving cerebrovascular and parenchymal, and solitary tumor-like mass lesion of PACNS (TLML-PACNS) is frequently misdiagnosed as neoplastic or other inflammatory diseases. However, seizure syndrome as a first manifestation of TLML-PACNS has rarely reported before. Patient concerns: Here, we report 2 cases of seizure syndrome, which was the first sign that presented prior to the diagnosis of TLML-PACNS by brain biopsy. Diagnoses: A mass lesion in the white and gray matters was detected by magnetic resonance imaging. The patholog...

Primary Angiitis of the Central Nervous System (PACNS) presenting with intracerebral hemorrhage (ICH): three cases associated with chronic use of over-the-counter vasoconstrictive drugs (P7.128)
CONCLUSIONS: While the FDA withdrew phenylpropanolamine due to its association with ICH, other vasoconstrictive agents remain ingredients of nasal decongestants/diet pills. These may induce chronic vasoconstriction leading to secondary inflammation and arterial rupture, culminating in atypical PACNS presentations such as multifocal ICH or ICH with acute infarcts (patients 1,2).Disclosure: Dr. Jha has nothing to disclose. Dr. George has nothing to disclose. Dr. Singhal has received personal compensation for activities as a medicolegal expert witness. Dr. Singhal's spouse holds stock and/or stock options in Biogen Idec.
