Bilateral middle cerebellar peduncle (MCP) infarction is a rare manifestation of ischemic stroke. We report a middle-aged male patient who presented with acute onset of vertigo, left ear deafness, and severe ataxia. Magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) of the brain confirmed the presence of infarction in the bilateral middle cerebellar peduncles due to stenosis of the posterior circulation arteries.

Article Synopsis
  • * Despite successful mechanical thrombectomy (MT) and stenting achieving full recanalization, the patient showed poor recovery in hearing, with persistent bilateral SNHL remaining post-treatment.
  • * The study underscores the complexity of neurological outcomes after vertebrobasilar occlusion, suggesting that while MT might alleviate other neurologic symptoms, its effectiveness on SNHL can vary greatly among patients.

Article Synopsis
  • - The study focuses on pediatric acute-onset neuropsychiatric syndrome (PANS) and its impact on children's sensory reactivity and occupational performance, emphasizing the importance of these metrics during periods of symptom exacerbation.
  • - It involved gathering data from parents of children aged 4.6 to 13.1 years with PANS through online surveys, using the Vineland Adaptive Behaviour Scale (VABS) and Sensory Processing Measure (SPM) to evaluate performance and reactivity.
  • - Results indicated a moderate to strong negative correlation between increased sensory reactivity and lower scores in communication and daily living skills during exacerbations, suggesting that sensory challenges may hinder children's everyday functioning.

An isolated fracture of the handle of the malleus is a rare entity in otorhinolaryngology and manifests clinically as acute-onset unilateral hearing loss. Several factors may cause this injury, including acute barotraumatic pressure changes or traumatic events. Various therapeutic approaches such as tympanoplasty, autologous graft, or application of bone cement are discussed.
