Abstract

A 67-years old female patient applies to a cardiology specialist for hypertension, syncope, and presyncope attacks for the last 1 year. While blood and urine tests are normal, vital follow-up of the patient exposes hypotension attacks with presyncope and dizziness. Cranial MRI, carotid and vertebral color Doppler USG, EEG, and EMG consecutive consultations adjusted. Despite other tests being normal, cranial MRIs showed abnormal findings with white matter damage to the brain. The patient is still in routine follow-up. It may be effective to apply different treatments for patients’ syncope and other demonstrative and disability symptoms of patients.

Özet

Altmış yedi yaşında kadın hasta son bir yıldır hipertansiyon, senkop ve presenkop atakları nedeniyle kardiyoloji uzmanına başvurdu. Kan ve idrar tetkikleri normal iken hastanın vital takibinde presenkop ve baş dönmesi ile birlikte hipotansiyon atakları görüldü. Kranial MRI, karotis ve vertebral renkli Doppler USG, EEG ve EMG ardışık konsültasyonları ayarlandı. Diğer testler normal olmasına rağmen, kranyal MRG'ler beyinde beyaz cevher hasarı ile anormal bulgular gösterdi. Hastanın rutin takibi devam etmektedir. Hastaların senkop ve diğer belirtileri için farklı tedavi seçenekleri uygulamak etkili olabilir.
