21
Q

CN palsies

A 
Ischaemia (strokes)

Migraines (e.g. ophthalmoplegic migraines)
Raised intracranial pressure
Congenital
22
Q

A 55-year-old man with a history of hypertension and diabetes presents on a Friday night to the emergency department. He was found by an ambulance crew wandering in the road. He looks dishevelled, and is slurring his words and staggering around the department. You also note his eyes are jerking horizontally when he is looking at you. You put him in a bed with some IV fluids running to let him “sleep it off”, but 10 hours later he is still looking and acting the same way.

Where is the lesion likely to be?

Middle cerebral artery
Anterior cerebral artery
Superior cerebellar artery
Posterior communicating artery

A

sup cerebellar artery

Cerebellar signs: DANISH

Dysdiadochokinesia
Ataxia
Nystagmus
Intention tremor
Slurred speech (or scanning dysarthria)
Hypotonia
23
Q

A 38-year-old man presents to his GP with double vision. He has a history of poorly controlled HIV, and reports headaches and fevers over the past few weeks. When you examine him, you note he is holding his head so it is pointing up and to his left, he reports this makes the double vision better.

You send him to hospital where a CT-scan confirms a brain abscess, later confirmed to be caused by cryptococcus.

What nerve was affected which led to the diplopia?

Right oculomotor
Left oculomotor
Right trochlear
Left trochlear

A

Patient is moving their head up and left so that both eyes are pointing down and to the right when looking at an object, as this is the only way the right eye can point.

24
Q

A 45-year-old woman with a history of MS presents to A+E complaining of vision changes that have occurred over the previous 2 days. She reports that she has double vision when she tries to look to the right, but not when she looks to the left. She has no other eye movement signs or symptoms.

What nerve was affected which led to the diplopia?

Right oculomotor
Left oculomotor
Right trochlear
Right Abducens

A

double vision sign of right abducens

Patient cannot look right due to failure of the right lateral rectus muscle. When she looks left, her eyes point together so no diplopia. LR is innervated by CN VI.

25
Q

A 23-year-old man presents to his GP with a sensation like the room is spinning. He reports this has happened over the last 2 days and he has been feeling fluey with it, with myalgia and general fatigue and malaise. He looks ataxic when mobilising, and you note nystagmus on examination.

What is the most likely diagnosis?

A

viral labyrintitis

26
Q

viral labyrintitis

A

Inflammation of the inner ear
Normally due to a viral infection (30% will have a cold before symptoms arise)
Causes nystagmus, vertigo, hearing loss/tinnitus, and viral symptoms
Can take 2 months to fully recover
No specific treatment unless bacterial or other cause

Strokes don’t affect the young and don’t cause viral symptoms.

Infection of the labyrinths causes failure of postural sensation, which leads to vertigo and nystagmus (failure vestibulo-ocular reflex), and viral symptoms

27
Q

68-year-old man with a history of hypertension, diabetes, and MI, presents to hospital with drooping of the right side of his face, as well as weakness in his left arm and leg. He also reports visual changes that he struggles to quantify. Full visual field testing reveals the following defect:

Where is the lesion?

defect of upper right quadrant of both eyes gone

A

left temporal lobe damage

28
Q

A 32-year-old woman with a history of lupus presents to A+E with loss of vision. She says her vision has been getting worse for the last few days, and she is now almost completely blind in both eyes. She also reports worsening weakness in her arms and legs on both sides.

On examination she can see the difference between light and dark only, with normal eye movement and fundoscopic findings shown below. She also has reduced sensation and power bilaterally below the level of C8. An MRI of her spine is shown below.

What is the pathogenesis of this condition?

A

anti-aquaporin 4 antibodies

29
Q

neuromyelitis optica NMO

A

RARE condition (10 per 100,000)

Caused by anti-aquaporin 4 antibodies
Presents with optic neuritis (like MS) and transverse myelitis (inflammation of a section of the spinal cord, usually >3 vertebral bodies in height)
ON is more severe and can be bilateral (Unlike MS)
Can be relapsing and remitting or monophasic
You don’t get brain lesions, unlike in MS

30
Q

myopia

A

short sighted

31
Q

signals from the bottom of the eye correlate to parietal lobe and signals from the top of the eye correlate with the temporal lobe visual fields. Therefore a lesion in the parietal lobe cause what

A

inf quantanopia

temporal casue superior quadrantopia

superior radiation fibres go into temporal lobe which are the ones that look wider
inferior radiation fibres go to parietal lobe and are closer to mid line of diagram
PITS

optic nerve - optic chiasm - optic tract - lateral geniculate nucleus - optic radiations
all optic fibres must go through the LGN

32
Q

if the upper bank of the calcimine fissure is injured it presents with what

A

contralateral inferior quadranopia - parietal

33
Q

if the lower bank of the calcimine fissure is injured it causes

A

contralateral superior quadraopia - same as temporal

34
Q

is the posterior cerebral artery is occluded the whole of the calcimine fissure is injured so complete loss of one side but with what

A

a central sparing

35
Q

PPRF - parapontine reticular formation

A

6th cranial nearby same side however 3rd cranial nerve on the other side as through the medial longitudinal fasciutlus

36
Q

1 and half syndrome is most commonly caused by MS and is characterised by what

where is the lesion

A

a lateral gaze palsy on looking toward the side of the lesion ( only LR left) and INO looking in the other direction

location of the lesion is the paramedic pontine reticular formation or VI nerve nucleus
