ro-16-0154 and Cognitive-Dysfunction

Cognitive impairment in adult patients with moyamoya disease (MMD) is sometimes overlooked and can occur in patients with no ischemic or hemorrhagic lesions. Better profiling and reliable diagnostic methods that characterize the group and associate the impairments and pathology of MMD are required in order to deliver appropriate treatments and support. The potential of

Early and late images of. A woman aged 77 years presented with progression of cognitive decline, gait disturbance, and urinary incontinence. She had a medical history of epilepsy and subarachnoid hemorrhage due to a ruptured left posterior cerebral artery aneurysm, treated conservatively when she was age 56 years. Magnetic resonance imaging revealed a mass lesion in the pineal region, which showed a target sign with gadolinium-based contrast agents, causing obstructive hydrocephalus owing to compression of the cerebral aqueduct. A right vertebral angiogram confirmed the presence of a partially thrombosed giant aneurysm at the left posterior cerebral artery. To rule out the involvement of nonconvulsive status epilepticus in her pathology, we performed. The findings in the present case indicate that
