An Unusual Case of Neurofascin 186 Neuropathy.

Among the diverse array of neuropathies, autoimmune neuropathy stands out as a distinctive subset, where the body's immune system mistakenly attacks its nerve tissues, triggering inflammation and nerve damage. NF 186, also known as neurofascin 186, is a cell adhesion molecule crucial for the integrity and functioning of the peripheral nervous system. This case report highlights the clinical presentation specific to NF 186-positive autoimmune neuropathy and also the treatment modalities.

Unraveling Labrune Syndrome: A Case Report on the Neurological Phenotype in SNORD118-Negative Patients.

Labrune syndrome is a rare neurogenetic disorder with varied presentations. Here, we report the case of a 53-year-old male who presented with seizures, gait imbalance, and upper limb tremors for two years. Imaging studies revealed extensive leukodystrophy, multiple cerebral calcifications, and cystic lesions characteristic of Labrune syndrome.

Case Report: Chorea as a Rare Manifestation of Secondary Adrenal Insufficiency.

The word "chorea" comes from the Latin word "choreus," which means dancing movement. Chorea is defined as a hyperkinetic movement disorder characterized by uncontrolled, unintended, jerky, brief, irregular, random movements involving the limbs or facial muscles. Here, we discuss the case of a 48-year-old male with hypothyroidism for two years, which is well-controlled with medication.

Subacute sclerosing panencephalitis presenting as neuromyelitis optica.

Subacute sclerosing panencephalitis (SSPE) is a slowly progressing inflammatory and degenerative disorder of the brain caused by a mutant measles virus. The diagnosis of SSPE is based on characteristic clinical and EEG findings (periodic complexes) and demonstration of elevated antibody titres against measles in cerebrospinal fluid. SSPE can have atypical clinical features at the onset.

Bilateral ptosis: an atypical presentation of neurocysticercosis.

Isolated ptosis is a rare presentation of neurocysticercosis (NCC). Here we report the case of a 45-year-old woman who presented with acute onset bilateral symmetrical ptosis with no other neurological deficit. Her imaging revealed a single cystic ring-enhancing lesion with perilesional oedema in the midbrain suggestive of NCC.

Prevalence of bladder dysfunction, urodynamic findings, and their correlation with outcome in Guillain-Barre syndrome.

Aims: The micturitional disturbances and related urodynamic studies are infrequently reported in Guillain Barre syndrome (GBS). In the present study, we evaluated patients of GBS for bladder dysfunction and urodynamic abnormalities. We also tried to assess relation between urodynamic findings with disability in patients diagnosed as GBS.

Midbrain neurocysticercosis presenting as isolated pupil sparing third cranial nerve palsy.

Brainstem alone is involved very infrequently in patients with neurocysticercosis; usually, it occurs in association with disseminated form of the disease. Isolated involvement of the third nerve is commonly due to vascular causes. We are reporting a case due to cysticercus lesion presenting as isolated third-nerve involvement with sparing of the pupil.
