Neurological Involvement in Primary Systemic Vasculitis
Conclusion Neurological involvement is a common complication of PSV (Table 1), and neurologists play an important role in the identification and diagnosis of PSV patients with otherwise unexplained neurological symptoms as their chief complaint. This article summarizes the neurological manifestations of PSV and hopes to improve neuroscientists' understanding of this broad range of diseases. TABLE 1 Table 1.

Neuro-Behcet's Syndrome:Case Reports Emphasizing Challenges of Early Diagnosis (P2.075)
CONCLUSIONS: In both cases, NBS was ultimately diagnosed based on characteristic MRI findings, particularly fluctuating brain stem-diencephalic involvement, superimposed on supportive clinical and CSF profiles. Challenges to early diagnosis are highlighted by our cases and by the literature. The differential diagnosis is often broad at onset. Mucocutaenous symptoms can be a clue but may not be present. Awareness of NBS and its neuroimaging correlates is critical to enable timely diagnosis, particularly given that this condition can favorably respond to steroids and steroid-sparing agents.Disclosure: Dr. Feldman has nothing to disclose.
