We report a female patient in her 70s with mild cognitive impairment due to Alzheimer's disease (AD) who developed a left temporal lobar haemorrhage after the third dose of lecanemab, accompanied by non-traumatic haemorrhage in a pre-existing subdural hygroma, and was diagnosed with amyloid-related imaging abnormalities with haemorrhage. The patient exhibited mild verbal paraphasia and word recall difficulty but had no other major neurological deficits. There was no additional intracranial abnormality during the course of hospitalisation.

Background: In adults, the conus medullaris( CM) tip usually terminates at the mid aspect of the L1 vertebra. However, variations exist. Beside the location, differences in the CM's shape are believed to be closely related to neurological conditions.

Background And Aims: Guidelines suggest non-traumatic out-of-hospital cardiac arrest (OHCA) be conveyed to cardiac arrest centres (CAC). We hypothesised that (a) a pre-hospital conveyance algorithm based on initial presenting rhythm following OHCA is feasible and (b) that would demonstrate survival advantage.
Methods: This observational pilot study included all consecutive patients with OHCA from suspected cardiac aetiology from the county of Essex, United Kingdom from April 2022-April 2023.

A wide range of acute brain injuries, including both traumatic and non-traumatic causes, can result in elevated intracranial pressure (ICP), which in turn can cause further secondary injury to the brain, initiating a vicious cascade of propagating injury. Elevated ICP is therefore a neurological injury that requires intensive monitoring and time-sensitive interventions. Patients at high risk for developing elevated ICP undergo placement of invasive ICP monitors including external ventricular drains, intraparenchymal ICP monitors, and lumbar drains.

This study reports on an extremely rare case of non-traumatic atlantoaxial rotatory fixation (AARF) in an adult. Although there are numerous reports on traumatic AARF in adults, those on non-traumatic AARFs are limited. We present the case of a 25-year-old woman who developed neck pain with a limited range of motion (ROM) that began upon waking without any particular inducement.
