In rainbow trout fry syndrome, acute disease with high mortality rates occurs. Infected fish may show signs of lethargy, inappetence and exophthalmos before death. [9] A presumptive diagnosis can be made based on the history, clinical signs, pattern of mortality and water temperature, especially if there is a history of the disease in the area.
Cauda equina syndrome (CES) is a condition that occurs when the bundle of nerves below the end of the spinal cord known as the cauda equina is damaged. [2] Signs and symptoms include low back pain, pain that radiates down the leg, numbness around the anus, and loss of bowel or bladder control. [1] Onset may be rapid or gradual. [1]
Pudendal neuropathy is any damage or disease process affecting the pudendal nerve, regardless of whether said disease process involves nerve entrapment and manifests as pain or not. It is an example of mononeuropathy (neuropathy affecting one peripheral nerve).
Lateral pontine syndrome, also known as Marie-Foix syndrome or Marie-Foix-Alajouanine syndrome [1] is one of the brainstem stroke syndromes of the lateral aspect of the pons. A lateral pontine syndrome is a lesion which is similar to the lateral medullary syndrome , but because it occurs in the pons , it also involves the cranial nerve nuclei ...
Claude's syndrome is a form of brainstem stroke syndrome characterized by the presence of an ipsilateral oculomotor nerve palsy, contralateral hemiparesis, contralateral ataxia, and contralateral hemiplegia of the lower face, tongue, and shoulder. Claude's syndrome affects oculomotor nerve, red nucleus and brachium conjunctivum. [1]
The disease can also be caused by inhalation of nitrous oxide, which inactivates vitamin B12. [ 11 ] Vitamin E deficiency , which is associated with malabsorption disorders such as cystic fibrosis and Bassen-Kornzweig syndrome , [ 12 ] can cause a similar presentation due to the degeneration of the dorsal columns .
Weber's syndrome, also known as midbrain stroke syndrome or superior alternating hemiplegia, is a form of stroke that affects the medial portion of the midbrain. It involves oculomotor fascicles in the interpeduncular cisterns and cerebral peduncle so it characterizes the presence of an ipsilateral lower motor neuron type oculomotor nerve palsy and contralateral hemiparesis or hemiplegia.
Symptoms generally occur alongside other sensory problems. Causes may include disorders such as strokes , [ 8 ] cerebral palsy , [ 9 ] [ 10 ] subdural hemorrhage , abscesses and tumours , neurodegenerative diseases such as multiple system atrophy , inflammation such as meningitis and multiple sclerosis , and trauma to the spinal cord, including ...
