AI Article Synopsis
- - The text discusses a case of a 44-year-old woman who experienced bilateral middle cerebral artery infarction two years ago, leading to unique neurological symptoms.
- - She displayed features of bilateral anterior opercular syndrome and partial Kluver-Bucy syndrome, which resulted in automatic-voluntary dissociation, anarthria, and memory issues, despite having intact writing skills.
- - This combination of syndromes is notably rare, with previous reports mostly involving children; this case adds to the understanding of such neurological conditions in adults.
Article Abstract
Bilateral anterior opercular syndrome and partial Kluver-Bucy syndrome are associated with bilateral middle cerebral artery lesions. The combination of these two syndromes has only been reported in a child with limbic encephalitis. In this case, a 44-year-old woman with bilateral middle cerebral artery infarction, which occurred 2 years prior, could walk independently. However, she showed automatic-voluntary dissociation and anarthria with preserved writing skills. She also presented hypersexuality, hypermetamorphosis, and memory disturbances. Here, we report a case of an adult stroke patient who suffered from bilateral anterior opercular syndrome accompanied by partial Kluver-Bucy syndrome.

Purpose: Intravitreal injections of anti-VEGF agents are considered as safe, with a very low rate of intraocular inflammations (IOI). Faricimab is a novel intravitreal bispecific antibody targeting both VEGF-A and angiopoietin-Tie2 independently. Despite a safe profile in randomized clinical trials, several real-life studies have reported cases of IOI.

A comprehensive genome-wide association study (GWAS) has validated the identification of the Plexin-A 4 (PLXNA4) gene as a novel susceptibility factor for Alzheimer's disease (AD). Nonetheless, the precise role of PLXNA4 gene polymorphisms in the pathophysiology of AD remains to be established. Consequently, this study is aimed at exploring the relationship between PLXNA4 gene polymorphisms and neuroimaging phenotypes intimately linked to AD.

Background: Aneurysmal bone cysts (ABCs) are slow-growing, expansile bone tumors most often observed in the long bones and lumbar and thoracic spine. Anterior column ABCs of the spine are rare, and few cases have described their surgical management, particularly for lesions with extension into the odontoid process and the bilateral C2 pedicles. In the present case, the authors describe a two-stage strategy for resection of a symptomatic 2.

Purpose: Atovaquone is an alternative drug that is used for the prevention and treatment of pneumonia when the first-line drug, sulfamethoxazole-trimethoprim (ST combination), cannot be used due to side effects. However, atovaquone is known to cause ocular side effects including oculomucocutaneous syndrome and vortex keratopathy. In this report, we describe a patient who developed bilateral white granular diffuse corneal opacity that extended from the corneal sub-epithelium to the stroma after continuous oral atovaquone administration for 14 months.
