Q

Anton’s Syndrome

A

Denial of blindness due to damaged b/l occipital lobes.

22
Q

Balint’s Syndrome

A

Damage to both posterior parietal lobes - optic ataxia (no coordination of hand/eye), oculomotor apraxia (inability to voluntarily guide eye movement), and simultagnosia (inability to percieve more than one object at a time in the visual field)

23
Q

Posterior reversible encephalopathy syndrome

A

-Result of severe uncontrolled HTN particularly if there is rapid increase in blood pressure. Common with eclampsia Mostly occipital lobes but also maybe cerebellum. -Clinically: seizures, visual disturbances, headaches, and mental status changes.

24
Q

Pseudo bulbar palsy

A

-Pseudobulbar palsy–tx w/ Dextromethorphan/quinidine _ tears for no apparent reason/ burst out laughing other times.

25
Q

Alien hand syndrome

A

-Corticobasilar degeneration - Most classically described as consequence of epilepsy surgery where the corpus callosum is severe to prevent the generalization of seizures.

26
Q

Klein Levin syndrome

A

Persistent hypersomnia and cognitive mood changes. Hyperphagia, hyper sexuality, etc.
