Multiple Sclerosis in a Patient with Psudopseudohypoparathyroidism

Abstract

A 30-year old woman admitted to the emergency department with a complaint of sudden weakness in her right arm and right leg. She had right hemihypoesthesis and 4/5 (MRC scale) right motor deficit on neurological examination. While there was no pathological sign in the initial brain CT scan, a hypodense area that was interpreted as an infarct was seen in the right posterior periventricular white matter in the control CT scan. Detailed studies were started for the etiology of stroke in a young patient. There was a 40 % stenosis in the left internal carotid artery in CT angiography. Cardiological studies (transthorasic echocardiography, holter test), lipid profile, homocysteine level, procoagulant factors and serological biomarkers of vasculitis were all in normal ranges.
