Abstract
The role of acute inpatient rehabilitation is pivotal in the treatment of functional neurological disorders, offering a multidisciplinary approach to a condition often challenging to diagnose and manage. This case report discusses a 44-year-old right-handed male with complex past medical histories of Bell's palsy, cholesteatomas, hearing impairment, coronary artery disease, cavernoma, hypertriglyceridemia, glaucoma, hypertension, hyperlipidemia, parotitis, psoriasis, seizure, and tremors transferred to our rehabilitation service with presented functional neurological disorder symptoms. The patient's treatment emphasized an acute comprehensive rehabilitative intervention with psychobehavioral approaches, focusing on both physical symptoms and psychological aspects of the condition. This case illustrates the effectiveness of acute rehabilitative care in functional neurological disorders, highlighting the significance of early intervention and a holistic treatment approach in improving prognosis and overall quality of life for patients with functional neurological disorders.
期刊介绍:
SAGE Open Medical Case Reports (indexed in PubMed Central) is a peer reviewed, open access journal. It aims to provide a publication home for short case reports and case series, which often do not find a place in traditional primary research journals, but provide key insights into real medical cases that are essential for physicians, and may ultimately help to improve patient outcomes. SAGE Open Medical Case Reports does not limit content due to page budgets or thematic significance. Papers are subject to rigorous peer review and are selected on the basis of whether the research is sound and deserves publication. By virtue of not restricting papers to a narrow discipline, SAGE Open Medical Case Reports facilitates the discovery of the connections between papers, whether within or between disciplines. Case reports can span the full spectrum of medicine across the health sciences in the broadest sense, including: Allergy/Immunology Anaesthesia/Pain Cardiovascular Critical Care/ Emergency Medicine Dentistry Dermatology Diabetes/Endocrinology Epidemiology/Public Health Gastroenterology/Hepatology Geriatrics/Gerontology Haematology Infectious Diseases Mental Health/Psychiatry Nephrology Neurology Nursing Obstetrics/Gynaecology Oncology Ophthalmology Orthopaedics/Rehabilitation/Occupational Therapy Otolaryngology Palliative Medicine Pathology Pharmacoeconomics/health economics Pharmacoepidemiology/Drug safety Psychopharmacology Radiology Respiratory Medicine Rheumatology/ Clinical Immunology Sports Medicine Surgery Toxicology Urology Women''s Health.
