The most frequently used standard treatment for hormone receptor (HR)-positive, human epidermal growth factor receptor 2 (HER2)-negative metastatic breast cancer patients consists of a CDK4/6 inhibitor (abemaciclib, ribociclib, or palbociclib) combined with endocrine therapy. Despite CDK4/6 inhibitors being part of routine care in the last few years, new adverse events continue to be reported. Here, we report two cases of palinopsia, a rare neurological visual disturbance that refers to the persistence or recurrence of a visual image after the removal of visual stimuli in patients treated with ribociclib and letrozole.

Purpose: Palinopsia (persistent afterimages and/or trailing) is a common but poorly understood symptom of the neurological condition visual snow syndrome. This study aimed to collect a phenotypical description of palinopsia in visual snow syndrome and probe for abnormalities in temporal visual processing, hypothesizing that palinopsia could arise from increased visibility of normal afterimage signals or prolonged visible persistence.
Methods: Thirty controls and 31 participants with visual snow syndrome (18 with migraine) took part.

Visual snow syndrome (VSS) is a rarely diagnosed neurological phenomenon. It is a visual disorder characterised by the presence of numerous white, black, or translucent dots in the visual field, resembling the 'snow' of an analogue TV set experiencing reception interference. According to The International Classification of Headache Disorders, 3rd edition, visual snow is defined as a pattern of continuous small dots across the visual field lasting >3 months and accompanied by at least two of the following four additional symptoms: palinopsia, increased entoptic phenomena, photophobia, and nyctalopia.

Normal pressure hydrocephalus (NPH) is characterized by pathologic ventriculomegaly with normal opening pressures on lumbar puncture. It commonly presents with a triad of gait disturbance, cognitive impairment, and urinary bladder detrusor dysfunction. Its pathogenesis is complex but is thought to arise in the setting of imbalanced cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) secretion and absorption.
