- Nyeri retro-orbital dan paralise saraf keenam
A. Sindroma TOLOSA - HUNT
B. Sindroma GRANDENIGO
C. Sindroma RAEDER
(B)
Raeder’s para trigeminal neuralgia is often localized adjacent to the trigeminal nerve as it courses through the middle cranial fossa. The cause of this syndrome is often unclear, but it is usually characterized by a partial Horner’s syndrome and unilateral trigeminal nerve problems, including tic-like pain, numbness, and/or masseter weakness. Gradenigo’s syndrome, also known as apical petrositis, often consists of the classic triad of abducens nerve palsy, retroorbital pain, and a draining ear. Tolosa-Hunt syndrome is a diagnosis of exclusion; this condition is believed to result from inflammation adjacent to the superior orbital fissure. It is characterized by painful ophthalmoplegia, cranial nerves III, IV, and VI palsies, and recurrent attacks and remissions; it is typically treated with intravenous steroids (Greenberg, pp. 581-582 )

6. Seorang anak berusia 7 tahun dibawa ke ruang gawat darurat dengan gejala terus tertawa tanpa dapat dikendalikan (kejang gelastik) dan pubertas prekok. Pemeriksaan MRI otak bisa menunjukkan lokasi kelainan dimana? A. Amigdala B. Hipokampus C. Girus singulate D. Hipotalamus E. Sella turcica
D.
An .MRI study of the brain in a patient with seizures accompanied by involuntary laughter (gelastic seizures) that alternates with crying or sobbing spells would likely show a lesion in the hypothalamus. A small series of cases hm•e been reported in the literature to date describing this phenomenon; in one report, 4 of 16 patients were found to harbor a hypothalamic hemartoma. Gelastic seizures or laughing fits have been reported to occur in up to 2 1 % of patients with hypothalamic hemartomas. Most patients with this lesion present with isosexual precocious puberty by the age of 3 years, although patients as old as 8 years have been reported. Hypothalamic hemartomas may be associated with midline deformities such as callosal agenesis, optic malformations, and hemispheric dysgenesis ( Kaye and Laws, pp. 593-596).

Tuberculous meningitis is always secondary to an infection elsewhere in the body, especially the lungs. It differs from infections caused by other common bacteria in that the time course is often more protracted, the mortality rate is higher, and the CSF changes may not be very helpful or diagnostic initially. Tuberculous meningitis is also often characterized by marked basal meningitis, as . opposed to bacterial meningitis, which tends to produce a n;eningeal reaction over the convexities of the brain. The diagnosis is often established by isolating the organism from the CSF. CSF findings include slightly increased pressure, moderate pleocytosis of 25 to 500 cells/mm3 with lymphocytic predominance, increased protein content, decreased glucose values in the range of 20 to 40 mg/dL, and the absence of growth on routine CSF culture media. The natural course of the disease is death within 6 to 8 weeks if left untreated. With early diagnosis and treatment, the recovery rate approaches 90%. Treatment is commonly started with four drugs , including isoniazid, rifampin, pyrazinamide, and ethambutol; streptomycin is an alternative in case one of the agents cannot be used. The drug regimen can be modified later, once sensiti\ •ities of the mycobacterium are known, but are typically administered for 18 to 24 months (Merritt, pp. 108-111).
12. Sindrom GERSTMANN meliputi semua hal di bawah ini, KECUALI A. Agnosia jari B. Akalkulia C. Agrafia D. Kebingungan kanan dan kiri E. Anosognia
E.
Gerstmann’s syndrome can result from injury in the dominant inferior parietal lobule (angular and supramarginal gyri) and is characterized by confusion of the right and left limbs, difficulty in distinguishing the fingers on the hand (finger agnosia) , acalculia, and agraphia. Anosognosia, which is characterized by unawareness of the opposite side of the body, often results from lesions in the nondominant • parietal lobe and is not a feature of Gerstmann’s syndrome (Carpenter, p. 429).

B.
Refsum disease is an autosomal recessive disease caused by a deficiency of phytanoyl-coenzyme A hydroxylase and accumulation of phytanic acid in the body. This disease is unique among the lipidoses because phytanic acid is not synthesized in the body but is obtained exclusively from the diet. Limiting phytanic acid or its precursor, phytol (dairy products, ruminant fat, and chlorophyl-containing foods), from the diet reduces plasma phytanic acid levels. Plasmapheresis may further help eliminate phytanic acid from the body in seYere cases. Symptoms typically begin in childhood but in some patients may be delayed until the fifth decade. Night blindness typically appears first, followed by limb weakness and gait abnormalities. Some patients may develop psychiatric symptoms, peripheral neuropathy, pigmentary retinopathy, deafness, cataracts, bone deformities, or cardiac arrhythmias (Merritt, pp. 514-529 , 539-540 ) .

The symptoms o f acute intermittent porphyria (AlP) are most commonly gastrointestinal, psychiatric, and neurologic. The precise etiology remains uncertain, but large and small nerve fibers, as well as autonomic nerves, have been shown to be affected. Abdominal pain is the most common finding, but often occurs concomitantly with a psychiatric or neurologic disorder. There is usually no abdominal rigidity, but fever, leukocytosis, diarrhea, tachycardia, and hypertension are often evident. Appendicitis or other serious abdominal problems may be difficult to rule out; in fact, some patients have been subjected to laparotomy for abdominal exploration. The most reliable test to confirm AlP is the assay for porphobilinogen deaminase activity in red blood cells, but often a good clinical histor

B.
Diphtheria infection produces neuropathy in about 20% of infected patients. Corynebacterium diphtheriae is often isolated from the throat and releases an exotoxin (not endotoxin) that can cause myocarditis or symmetric neuropathy. The neuropathy is often characterized by poor visual accommodation, paresis of. throat muscles, quadriparesis, and slow ner;e conduction velocities secondary to demyelinating neuropathy. This disease can be prevented by immunization and often responds to antibiotics (Merritt, pp. 620-621).

Although \-ernicke’s and Korsakoff’s syndromes are often described together, these appear to be two distinct entities that result from thiamine deficiency. Wernicke’s syndrome consists of mental symptoms (global confusional state) , eye movement problems (nystagmus, lateral rectus palsy, and lateral gaze palsy), and gait ataxia, while Korsakoff’s syndrome is a purely amnestic syndrome usually associated with lesions in the DM nucleus of the thalamus and mammillary bodies. With treatment (thiamine) , ocular abnormalities, nystagmus, and global confusion often improve to varying degrees, leaYing Korsakoff’s amnesia in about 80% of patients. ( Merritt, pp. 924-925).

MELAS, MERFF, LHON, and KSS are a group of disorders related to mitochondrial (mt) DNA abnormalities. Although specific syndromes are often identified by a variety of signs/symptoms, several clinical manifestations seem to be prevalent with mtDNA abnormalities and include short stature, hearing loss, and diabetes mellitus. Lactic acidosis is the most common laboratory finding, while pathologic sectioning reveals enlarged mi tochondria in muscle fibers, which forms the basis for ragged red fibers (RRF) . Leigh’s disease is a disorder of mitochondrial metabolism in which the primary defect involves proteins encoded by nuclear DNA instead of mitochondrial DNA (El l ison, pp. 457-465) .

Wild, involuntary flinging of an extremity may be secondary to a cerebrovascular accident affecting the subthalamic nucleus and is commonly referred to as hemiballismus. Normally, glutamatergic projections from the subthalamic nucleus to the Gpi and SNr suppress the motor nuclei of the thalamus. After damage to the subthalamic nucleus, the thalamic motor neurons are disinhibited and provide excessive activation of the motor cortex. The dopaminergic projections, howeYer, remain intact. pro,•iding a constant and unbalanced acti,•ation of motor neurons throughout the basal ganglia. This is the basis for using neuroleptic agents, including dopamine receptor blockers (haloperidol and perphenazine) and presynaptic dopamine depletors (reserpine and tetrabenazine ) to treat this disease process (Tarsy, p. 9; Pritchard, pp. 330-331).

HD is an autosomal dominant condition with complete penetrance that Yaries in symptom onset from ju,•eniles to late adulthood. \Yith a\•erage onset between 35 and 40 years of age. Sporadic cases of HD are rare. HD, a CHAPTER 3 Neurology Answers 67 trinucleotide repeat (CAG) disorder that localizes to chromosome 4, is more common in males than females and exhibits anticipation (earlier onset in successive generations). The abnormal gene product results in protein conformational changes that lead to aggregation in the cytosol and eventually cellular apoptosis. HD primarily affects the GABNenkephalin projections from the striatum to the external segment of the globus pallidus (indirect pathway) , resulting in thalamic facilitation of motor cortical areas and hyperkinesia. Haloperidol may be effective in suppressing abnormal movements early in the disease course, but the disease is inevitably progressive and usually results in death within 20 years from symptom onset (Merritt, pp. 659-664, 696-699).

Craniosynostosis refers to the premature closure of cranial sutures. It is more common in males than females, and sagittal synostosis accounts for 50% of all cases of craniosynostosis. Sagittal synostosis is identified in a child with an oblong-shaped skull (scaphocephaly or dolichocephaly), which results in an increased AP skull diameter and a narrowed biparietal diameter. There is usually a palpable “keel” along the course of the sagittal suture. Trigonocephaly refers to premature closure of the metopic suture, and results in a wedge-shaped head. Unilateral suture closure (coronal or lambdoid) often results in a misshapen and unilaterally flattened head (plagiocephaly), while premature bilateral coronal or lambdoid suture closure often results in a broad biparietal skull diameter or brachycephaly. Other forms of craniosynostosis can result from premature closure of all the sutures, which can result in a tower-shaped skull (oxycephaly) or a grossly abnormal-appearing skull with a cloverleaf shape (Kleeblattschiidel). Lacunar skull can be seen in patients with Chiari II malformation, and does not result from premature closure of the cranial sutures. The indications for surgery with craniosynostosis are usually for intracranial hypertension (VP shunt) and cosmetic deformity (Wilkins, pp. 3673-3679; Merritt, pp. 491-492)
