Abstract

Hemichorea, hemiballismus, and hyperglycemia associated with vascular malformation is rare. We report a patient who presented with involuntary movements in the left-side with concurrent hyperglycemia. The patient had type 2 diabetes mellitus (DM) and a venous angioma in the basal ganglia on the cranial magnetic resonance imaging (MRI). A woman aged 49 years presented with flinging and throwing movements of the left upper and lower limb, which she had had for one month. Her neurologic examination confirmed involuntary, irregular, wide amplitude movements of the left limbs consistent with left hemiballismus. She had hypertension and type 2 DM. Her glucose level was 400 mg/dL. Cranial MRI showed a cavernoma in the right subependymal area of the lateral ventricle and a venous angioma in the right nucleus lentiformis, which was confirmed on digital subtraction angiography. Hemiballismus improved after blood glucose level had been regulated in the follow-up period. Especially in the elderly secondary causes should be investigated in patients with acute or subacute onset of choreaballismus. We think that our patient's clinical presentation was induced by unregulated DM. Venous angioma with chorea-ballismus is rarely stated in literature and we presume the mass effect of venous angioma could be responsible of our clinical findings.

Özet

Vasküler malformasyona bağlı hemiballizm, hemikore ve hiperglisemi birlikteliği olgusuna az rastlanmaktadır. Biz burada başlangıç kliniği sol taraflı istemsiz hareketler olan, yapılan tetkiklerde hiperglisemi saptanan, iyi regüle edilememiş tip 2 diabetes mellitus (DM) özgeçmişi olan ve kranyal manyetik rezonans görüntülemede (MRG) bazal ganglionlar düzeyinde venöz anjiom tespit edilen bir olguyu sunuyoruz. Kırk dokuz yaşındaki kadın hasta, yaklaşık bir aydır sol kol ve sol bacakta, istemsiz, atma şeklindeki hareket şikayeti ile başvurdu. Özgeçmişinde hipertansiyon ve tip 2 DM öyküsü vardı. Hastanın muayenesinde sol taraflı, kalça ve omuzdan başlayan, şiddetli, atma şeklinde hemiballizm görüldü. Hastanın bakılan tetkiklerinde kan şekeri 400 mg/dL olarak ölçüldü. Kranyal MRG'sinde sağ nükleus lentiformis düzeyinde venöz anjiyom ve sağ lateral ventrikül korpus lateralinde, subependimal yerleşimli, vasküler malformasyonu düşündüren lezyon tespit edildi ve ardından dijital dört damar serebral anjiyografisinde gösterildi. Takibinde kan şekeri regülasyonu sağlanan hastanın hemiballizminde tama yakın klinik düzelme oldu. Özellikle ileri yaşlı olgularda, akut veya subakut başlangıçlı kore-ballizm, özellikle sekonder nedenleri akla getirmelidir. Vasküler malformasyona bağlı hemiballizm, hemikore ve hiperglisemi birlikteliği olgusuna az rastlanmaktadır. Sunulan olguda iyi regüle edilememiş DM hastamızın kliniğinin belirmesinde kolaylaştırıcı etken olduğunu ve yine literatürde az rastlanan venöz anjiyom ve kore-ballizm birlikteliğinde, venöz anomalinin özellikle kitle etkisinin klinikten sorumlu olabileceğini düşünüyoruz.
