Abstract

Objective: We present a patient with isolated trigeminal sensory neuropathy secondary to the involvement of brain stem. Material and method: A 49 year-old man who has numbness on the right side of his face and oral cavity was investigated. Cranial MRI revealed ischemic focus at right inferior dorsolateral pontine region. The only risk factor was protein S deficiency. The symptoms of the patient disappeared almost completely within a month. Conclusion: When an isolated trigeminal sensory neuropathy is diagnosed, one should think of brain stem involvement and investigate the risk factors for occlusive vessel diseases.

Özet

Amaç: Beyin sapı tutulumuna bağlı izole trigeminal sensoriyel nöropatisi olan bir olgu sunulmaktadır. Gereç ve yöntem: Yüzünün sağ yarısı ve ağız içinde uyuşma nedeni ile incelenen 49 yaşındaki erkek hastanın kranial MRG’sinde sağ inferior dorsolateral pontin bölgede iskemik odak saptandı. Hastadaki tek risk faktörü protein S eksikliği idi. Hastanın yakınmaları bir ay içinde tamamen düzeldi. Sonuç: İzole trigeminal sensoriyel nöropati tanısı konduğunda beyin sapı tutulumuna bağlı olabileceği düşünülmeli ve tıkayıcı damar hastalığı için risk faktörleri araştırılmalıdır.
