Superficial siderosis of the central nervous system results from hemosiderin deposition in the subpial layers of the brain and spinal cord. The condition is characterized by a classic triad of symptoms, which consists of sensorineural hearing loss, cerebellar ataxia, and myelopathy. This case report provides an account of a woman who presented with sudden vertigo attacks accompanied by sensorineural hearing loss.

A AB BS ST TR RA AC CT T Optic neuritis (ON) is an inflammatory demyelinating situation of the optic nerve. ON presents with subacute monocular visual loss associated with pain during eye movement. Visual loss usually develops during hours or days. ON is mostly idiopathic and infrequently occurs on the backgraund of autoimmune diseases, infectious diseases or vaccination. There are still many points that remain unclear in terms of the mechanism underlying the development of ON following influenza vaccination. Some authors suggested that anti phosphatidylcholine antibodies may be one of the causes of autoimmune vasculitis such as influenza vaccination-associated ON. We describe a patient presenting retrobulber pain and visual disturbance in the left eye three days after receiving the influenza vaccination. Ya zış ma Ad re si/Cor res pon den ce:
We present two cases of progressive isolated damage to the lateral branch of the pectoral nerve with marked atrophy of the clavicular portion of the major pectoral muscle. In our patients, the mechanism of isolated lesions of lateral pectoral nerves have been attributed to repetitive external microtraumas and pressure on the nerve trajectory between the chest and shoulder during sports or occupational activities.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
