Abstract

A 41-year-old man presented to emergency service with loss of consciousness lasting 20 minutes after a piece of wood struck the right side of his face. Shortly after admission, he developed difficulty swallowing. On admission, he was alert and had normal vital findings. There was no motor, sensorial, or cerebellar deficit. Deviation of the uvula to the left side and pharyngeal reflex loss on the right side was obvious. The right vocal cord was paralyzed. Other cranial nerves were intact on examination. The patient’s cranial computed tomography (CT), CT-angiogram, cranial and neck magnetic resonance (MR) imaging, MR-angiogram, and cervical and lung X-ray were normal. We evaluated this case with isolated unilateral vagus nerve palsy (VNP) secondary to trauma at the emergency department. Our case illustrated that trauma can cause isolated VNP with the absence of abnormal findings on imaging modalities.

Özet

Yüzünün sağ tarafına tahta parçası çarptıktan sonra 20 dakika bilinç kaybı gelişen 41 yaşında erkek hasta acil servise başvurdu. Kabulden kısa bir süre sonra hastada yutma güçlüğü gelişti. Kabülde hasta alertti ve vital bul- guları normaldi, motor, sensoriyal ve serebeller defisiti yoktu. Uvula sola deviyeydi ve sağ tarafta belirgin faren- jeal refleks kaybı vardı. Sağ vokal kortlarda paralizi vardı. Diğer kraniyal sinir muayeneleri intaktı. Hastanın beyin tomografisi (BT), BT anjiyogramı, beyin ve boyun manye- tik rezonans (MR) bulguları, MR anjiyogramı, servikal ve akciğer grafileri normaldi. Bu yazıda, acil serviste travma- ya bağlı izole tek taraflı nervus vagus yarlanmalı olgu de- ğerlendirildi. Bu olgu görüntüleme tekniklerinde patolojik bulgu olmadan da izole nervus vagus yaralanması olabile- ceğini göstermektedir.
