MULTIPLE ACUTE POSTERIOR CIRCULATION STROKE WITH LESIONS IN THE PONS AND BOTH HEMISPHERES OF THE CEREBELLUM ASSOCIATED WITH OVARIAN HYPERSTIMULATION SYNDROME: A CASE REPORT OF A WHITE EUROPEAN ADULT IN UKRAINE.

We have presented a brief literature overview of the disease, supported by a clinical case of multiple acute posterior circulation strokes with lesions in the pons and both hemispheres of the cerebellum associated with ovarian hyperstimulation syndrome in a white young European adult in Ukraine. Specific features of posterior circulation stroke associated with ovarian hyperstimulation syndrome were determined, analyzed, and described. Complex posterior circulation cerebral infarction in the pons and both hemispheres of the cerebellum associated with ovarian hyperstimulation syndrome has not been reported before but has devastating consequences for both mother and fetus. Strokes in patients with OHSS must be timely prevented, promptly diagnosed, and treated to avoid high morbidity and mortality associated with it.

CLINICAL AND IMAGING FEATURES OF MEDIAL MEDULLARY INFARCTION: RESULTS OF A PROSPECTIVE HOSPITAL-BASED COHORT STUDY ILLUSTRATED WITH A CASE REPORT IN A WHITE EUROPEAN ADULT.

OBJECTIVE: The aim: This study aims in a prospective hospital-based cohort study to determine clinical and imaging features of medial medullary infarction and report a relevant clinical case in a white European adult. PATIENTS AND METHODS: Materials and methods: We have prospectively enrolled one hundred twenty adult patients with acute posterior circulation stroke. All patients were admitted and enrolled in the study within 6 to 24 hours from the onset of the stroke symptoms. Study subjects were recruited from the hospital's wards and emergency departments from 2011 to 2020. Comprehensive clinical, MRI, ultrasound, and laboratory examinations were performed on all patients. RESULTS: Results: 68 men and 52 women aged 28 to 89 years (average age 60.7 ± 12.1 years) with an acute ischemic posterior circulation stroke were enrolled in the study. Out of these 120 patients, 22 (18.3%) had acute medulla oblongata infarctions. Clinical and imaging features of medial medullary infarction are analyzed and illustrated with a clinical case presentation in a white European adult. CONCLUSION: Conclusions: Specific features of medial medullary infarction were determined, analyzed, described, and illustrated with a clinical case.

GLYCOGEN STORAGE DISEASE TYPE II: A NARRATIVE LITERATURE REVIEW AND A CASE REPORT OF LATE-ONSET POMPE DISEASE IN A YOUNG WHITE CHILD.

At all ages, skeletal muscle weakness characterizes Pompe disease, causes mobility problems and affects the respiratory system. We aimed to provide a narrative review of terminology, etiology, epidemiology, clinical manifestations, complications, and prognosis of Pompe disease, supported with a clinical case presentation. The clinical manifestation and complications of Pompe disease are illustrated with the clinical case presentation of a late-onset form in a white child. A comprehensive electronic literature search was performed on Ovid, Google Scholar, Scopus, PubMed, Embase, Cochrane Database, and World Health Organization databases to identify the articles that discussed Pompe disease.
