Bilateral medial medullary stroke: A rare stroke syndrome masquerading as myasthenia crisis in a young diabetic lady
J R Coll Physicians Edinb. 2022 Mar;52(1):30-33. doi: 10.1177/14782715221088914.ABSTRACTBilateral medial medullary stroke is a rare stroke syndrome. The clinical presentation of bilateral medial medullary stroke is heterogenous and often overlaps with other non-stroke neurology emergencies such as Guillain-Barrésyndrome, myasthenic crisis and acute vestibular syndrome, leading to misdiagnosis. We wish to present a case of a young lady with type 1 diabetes mellitus, who had presented with subacute neuromuscular weakness which was erroneously treated as myasthenic crisis. Her case was subsequently diagnosed as bilateral med...

Grey matter heterotopia mimicking acute stroke
J R Coll Physicians Edinb. 2022 Mar;52(1):52-53. doi: 10.1177/14782715221088977.ABSTRACTGrey Matter Heterotopia is a rare clinical entity and its presentation can vary with age. While it usually presents with seizures or behavioural problems, it can seldom present as a stroke mimic. We aim to highlight this rare condition as a differential diagnosis in patients presenting with stroke-like symptoms.PMID:36146972 | DOI:10.1177/14782715221088977

Stylocarotid syndrome causing middle cerebral artery infarction
J R Coll Physicians Edinb. 2021 Dec;51(4):380-381. doi: 10.4997/JRCPE.2021.414.ABSTRACTStylocarotid syndrome is a variant of Eagle's syndrome that depicts elongation of styloid process or calcification of stylohyoid ligament causing compression of external or internal carotid arteries. Because of this compression, several neurological presentations could occur ranging from transient ischaemic attacks to carotid dissection and devastating ischaemic stroke. It is a rare cause of stroke that many physicians are not familiar with, yet it can be readily diagnosed by computed tomography angiography (CTA). Styloidectomy remains t...
