Symptoms of craniocervical involvement include headaches (mostly migraine), pulsatile tinnitus, dizziness, and neck pain, although patients are often asymptomatic. On physical examination, one may detect neurological symptoms secondary to a stroke or transient ischemic attack (TIA), a bruit over an affected artery, and diminished distal pulses.
The most common signs/symptoms of DAVFs are: [1] Pulsatile tinnitus; Occipital bruit; Headache; Visual impairment; Papilledema; Pulsatile tinnitus is the most common symptom in patients, and it is associated with transverse-sigmoid sinus DAVFs. [1] Carotid-cavernous DAVFs, on the other hand, are more closely associated with pulsatile ...
Pulsatile tinnitus may also be caused by tumors such as paragangliomas (e.g., glomus tympanicum, glomus jugulare) or hemangiomas (e.g., facial nerve or cavernous). Middle ear causes of pulsatile tinnitus include patulous eustachian tube, otosclerosis, or middle ear myoclonus (e.g., stapedial or tensor tympani myoclonus).
Most cases of PSA cases remain asymptomatic for a person's life; [1] however, symptoms can include vertigo, [2] pulsatile tinnitus, conductive hearing loss or sensorineural hearing loss via bone erosion of the otic capsule in rare cases. [3] Hearing loss in children can also cause developmental delays. [4]
According to this theory, dural holes and intracranial hypotension are symptoms caused by low venous pressure in the epidural space. When leg muscles pump blood towards the heart, and pressure in the inferior vena cava vein becomes negative, the network of epidural veins is overdrained, causing CSF to be aspirated into the epidural space. True ...
Many have pulsatile tinnitus, a whooshing sensation in one or both ears (64–87%); this sound is synchronous with the pulse. [ 5 ] [ 6 ] Various other symptoms, such as numbness of the extremities, generalized weakness, pain and/or numbness in one or both sides of the face, loss of smell, and loss of coordination , are reported more rarely ...
The signs and symptoms of carotid artery dissection may be divided into ischemic and non-ischemic categories: [5] [6] Non-ischemic signs and symptoms: Neck pain and headache, sometimes escalating in intensity [7] Decreased pupil size with drooping of the upper eyelid (Horner syndrome) Pulsatile tinnitus; Ischemic signs and symptoms: Temporary ...
The symptoms of vestibulocerebellar syndrome vary among patients but are typically a unique combination of ocular abnormalities including nystagmus, poor or absent smooth pursuit (ability of the eyes to follow a moving object), strabismus (misalignment of the eyes), diplopia (double vision), oscillopsia (the sensation that stationary objects in the visual field are oscillating) and abnormal ...
