Unilateral carpal tunnel syndrome secondary to lipomatosis of the median nerve
An otherwise healthy 54-year-old right-handed woman referred to our clinic for a 6-year long history of untreated unilateral right carpal tunnel syndrome. No additional comorbidities, syndromes or a significant medical history were reported and no previous traumas to the affected forearm/hand could be recalled: in addition, anamnestic data showed no familial history or carpal tunnel syndrome or of other relevant neuropathies. The patient reported progressive deteriorating painful paresthesia (numbness, burning pain, gradual sensory loss) in the area innervated by median nerve and homolateral decreased grip strength. The sy...

Carotid Intima-Media Thickness in Patients With Carpal Tunnel Syndrome
Conclusions— The maximum carotid intima-media thickness was significantly increased in patients with carpal tunnel syndrome compared to controls. Chronic inflammation beyond the traditional cardiovascular risk factors might be related to increased carotid intima-media thickness in patients with carpal tunnel syndrome.

Low levels of a natural IgM antibody are associated with vein graft stenosis and failure
Conclusions: A naturally occurring IgM antibody directed against the proinflammatory epitope PC may be protective against vein graft stenosis and failure, through anti-inflammatory mechanisms. Measurement of this antibody may be a useful prognostic indicator, although larger studies of more diverse populations will be needed to confirm these results. The biological actions of anti-PC IgM suggest it may be useful in developing immunotherapies to improve bypass longevity.

Medical treatment of ureteral obstruction associated with ovarian remnants and/or endometriosis: report of 3 cases and review of the literature
Conclusions Low dose intermittent danazol or GnRH-a alone or with add-back, may be effective long-term therapies in endometriosis-associated ureteral obstruction when surgery is contraindicated, refused or difficult to perform.

Brachial Plexus Neuritis as Presenting Manifestation of Disseminated Coccidioidomycosis. (P6.323)
CONCLUSIONS:This is the first reported case of coccidioidomycosis presenting with PNS involvement. Both remote inflammatory changes and direct local fungal invasion noted in this case highlight the wide spectrum of clinico-pathological presentations seen in coccidioidomycosis infection. As this fungal disease is identified with increasing frequency, clinicians should be aware of its atypical manifestations. Study Supported by: Disclosure: Dr. Shah has nothing to disclose. Dr. Liao has nothing to disclose. Dr. Shanina has nothing to disclose. Dr. Smith has nothing to disclose.

Hospitalization after fainting can do more harm than good
One morning not long ago, my teenage daughter started to black out. After an ambulance ride to our local hospital’s emergency department, an electrocardiogram, and some bloodwork, she was sent home with a follow-up doctor appointment. We got the good news that Alexa is perfectly healthy, but should avoid getting too hungry or thirsty so she doesn’t faint again. And I’m feeling lucky that she didn’t need to be hospitalized, because a research letter in this week’s JAMA Internal Medicine points out that hospitalization for low-risk fainting can do more harm than good. Doctors use something called th...

A Novel Use of Regional Anesthesia for Spastic Hemiplegia Evaluation and Treatment: A Case Report
Publication date: Available online 4 August 2015 Source:PM&R Author(s): Ameet S. Nagpal, Maxim S. Eckmann, Jon Benfield Spastic hemiplegia is a common sequela of stroke. Spasticity not optimally reduced with systemic therapy is often treated with intramuscular botulinum toxin injections. Spastic tone can increase the difficulty of appropriately positioning the patient for botulinum toxin injections, lengthen procedure duration, and increase peri-procedural pain. Our case is a 53-year-old female unable to be adequately positioned to receive botulinum toxin injections to her left upper extremity due to challengi...

Transient global amnesia
Thorsten Bartsch MD. Currently, I am a board-certified Cognitive Neurologist and Consultant at the Department of Neurology of the University Hospital Schleswig Holstein in Kiel and Professor for Memory Disorders and Plasticity at the University of Kiel. I was initially trained in Physiology (1993–1998) before pursuing my clinical training in Neurology (1998–2007). Additionally training was in emergency medicine, pain therapy, clinical neurophysiology (EEG, EP, EMG, ENG), neurological ultrasound, geriatrics. My area of clinical expertise is memory disorders, in particular hippocampal dysfunction, dementias, imag...

Eagle's Syndrome - A non-perceived differential diagnosis of temporomandibular disorder
Conclusion Making use of low cost and easily accesible diagnostic workup techniques can reveal this particular cause for chronic pain restricting quality of life. Thereby differentiation from the TMD symptomatic complex is possible.

Near infrared spectroscopy - investigations in neurovascular diseases.
This study showed increased LFOs amplitude only in FHM patients with co-existing common type of migraine, but not in patients with pure FHM phenotype. This suggests that the sensitivity to NO resides within the common migraine phenotypes rather than the FHM phenotype. Stimulation of the sphenopalatine ganglion (SPG) may lead to parasympathetic outflow and cause pain in cluster headache (CH). The fifth study therefore investigated pain and autonomic symptoms in relation to high or low SPG frequency stimulation in chronic CH patients. Cortical changes in oxygenated hemoglobin (HbO) were also recorded with NIRS and showed a m...
