A patient status post motor vehicle accident is brought by EMS to the emergency department. There is spastic paralysis and loss of all sensory ability beginning near the level of the umbilicus and continuing all the way down the body bilaterally. There is increased patellar and Achilles deep tendon reflexes bilaterally. What occurred?
A patient is brought to the emergency room following a severe assault. There is paralysis beginningat the level of the umbilicus on the right side of the body. There is also decreased proprioception onthe right side of the body in the same areas where there is paralysis. Achilles and patellar reflexesare 4/4 on the right and 2/4 on the left. On the left side of the body, there is decreased pain andtemperature from a level about an inch below the umbilicus that extends all the way down the rest ofthe left side of the body. What occurred?
A patient presents with complaints of “not being able to feel things like normal” throughout both hisarms and across his shoulders, upper chest, and upper back. Examination reveals a patient withdecreased pain and temperature sensation in a cape-like distribution over his upper body. What isthe pathology?
A patient presents with paralysis of the entire left side of his body exclusive of the head and face.He also has tongue weakness allowing the tongue to deviate to the right. On examination, all leftsided deep tendon reflexes are increased. There is loss of proprioception on the left side of thebody. Where is the lesion?
A patient presents with severe weakness of the entire left side of the body, with the exception of theupper left face. DTRs on the left side of the body are increased, as well. He also has right facialanesthesia of the entire face, plus right masseter muscle weakness. Where is the lesion?
A patient presents with complaints of spastic paralysis of the entire right body except for the head. Triceps, biceps, patellar, and Achilles reflexes are 4/4 on the right and 2/4 on the left. He also has left facial weakness and is incapable of fully abducting the left eye. Where is the lesion?
A patient presents with spastic paralysis of the entire left side of the body, with the exception of theleft face. He also has difficulty adducting the right eye. On exam, there is right ptosis with a rightdilated pupil. All DTRs on left extremities measure 4/4. Muscle strength is 0/5 on the left side of thebody. There is no sensory loss. Where is the lesion?
With respect to the previous case, what if the problems were all sensory related (decreased sensory ability) instead of spastic motor problem, but there was still decreased right eye adduction ability, continued ptosis, and a right dilated pupil?
A patient presents with significant weakness of the right leg from the midcalf downward. He also has decreased sensory ability in the same area. Right Achilles reflex measure 3/4. What is thesource of the pathology?
A patient presents with paralysis of the left arm, left upper body, and left face, with drooling as a result of inability to control the muscles around the left mouth. He also complains of decreased ability to “feel things” on the left face and arm. What is the source of the pathology?
A patient presents with hemiplegia of the entire right side of the body. Where is the pathology?
A patient presents with complaints of weakness of the hands and lower extremities. Muscle atrophy is evident in the feet and hands. Achilles deep tendon reflexes are increased. Brachioradialis reflexes are decreased. What is the likely diagnosis?
A patient presents right facial weakness and difficulty in moving eyes about voluntarily. Onexamination, she has a positive Romberg’s sign. Babinski sign is present. Nystagmus is evident.She also complains of having had terrible difficulty in seeing things a couple weeks ago out of her left eye. What is the dx?
A patient suffered acute onset sharp back pain that started yesterday. The pain continues today,but the patient also states that he has “pins and needle” feelings on the bottom of his right foot. Achilles reflex is 1/4. What is the likely neuro problem?
A patient with a long history of various sexually transmitted diseases now presents with complaints of difficulty walking along with lancinating pain in his legs. He walks about by slamming his feet on the ground. On examination, he demonstrates a positive Romberg sign and decreased proprioception bilaterally in both legs. What is the likely diagnosis?
