Acute complications commonly occur during routine hemodialysis treatments. They include the following [1]: hypotension (25–55%), cramps (5–20%), nausea and vomiting (5–15%), headache (5%), chest pain (2–5%), back pain Cortical blindness as a complication of hemodialysis is not widely known, though visual disturbances related to uremia have been known for a long time. We recently observed cortical blindness caused by bilateral occipital infarcts in a patient after hemodialysis. Occipital Infarction With Hemianopsia From Carotid Occlusive Disease Michael S. Pessin, MD, Eddie S. Kwan, MD, R. Michael Scott, MD, and Thomas R. Hedges III, MD Extracranial internal carotid artery occlusive disease usually produces stroke in the middle cerebral artery territory or the border zone between the middle and anterior cerebral arteries. Findings suggested a central pathology, and the CT scan performed afterwards revealed large hypodense infarct areas in the bilateral occipital and parasagittal posterior region of right parietal lobes (Figures 1 and 2). Bilateral carotid artery doppler and echocardiography for differential diagnosis of thromboembolism were normal.

They are responsible for about 20 percent of all strokes. In 1 CT study of 54 patients, 45 (83%) had infarcts in the temporal artery territory, 43 (80%) in the calcarine artery territory, and 16 (30%) in the parieto-occipital artery territory. 7 In a study of 38 patients in which infarcts were classified according to lobes rather than arterial territories, 29 (76%) had infarcts in the occipital lobe, 28 (74%) in the posterior temporal lobe, and 8 (21 Our patients had from two to seven infarcts (median 3 6) including cerebellum (25), brainstem (17), occipital lobe (13), or thala-mus (11). Cerebellar infarcts were bilateral in 80% of the patients (20/25), brainstem infarcts occurred in 24% (4/17) and occipi-tothalamic infarcts were found in 8% of patients (2/24). In the 25 patients with cere- Urgent electroencephalogram demonstrated generalised excess of slow-wave activity only, while repeat cranial CT showed bilateral occipital pole and cerebellar hypoattenuation consistent with bilateral posterior cerebral artery (PCA) infarcts. She was transferred to a medical ward on Day 12 for supportive care. Sep 30, 2014 Herein, we report a case of posterior circulation infarct involving bilateral occipital lobe following Indian tree viper bite.

Stroke is a occipital infarct (Figure 1) in the PCA territory and a right frontal infarct. Cerebral angiography revealed a subtotal occlusion of the right ICA, with minimal antegrade blood flow and patent cervical and intra-cranial ICA on later films (Figure 2). A direct communication was present between the right ICA Anton syndrome is usually associated with bilateral occipital infarcts where it is supplied by the posterior cerebral arteries and these infarcts usually involve both the primary visual cortex and visual association area.

The overall prognosis of bilateral occipital lobe infarcts is poor. In most cases, patients with bilateral occipital cortex lesions develop simultaneously acute visual impairment, cortical blindness and anosognosia.

Cerebellar infarcts were bilateral in 80% of the patients (20/25), brainstem infarcts occurred in 24% (4/17) and occipi-tothalamic infarcts were found in 8% of patients (2/24).

PHA usually represents an incidental finding in 0.027–0.26% of cerebral arteriograms. Bilateral occipital lobe infarcts (PCA territory) is unusual. The different between an acute and an established infarct is well illustrated from the symmetry of this bilateral pathology of variable age. The most common cause of cortical blindness is bilateral occipital lobe infarctions in the vascular territory of the posterior cerebral arteries (PCA).

As such, occipital lobe strokes are primarily associated with changes in vision. 1. On the detailed examination at the clinic, MTHFR (a1298c) gene mutation was detected. Bilateral occipital infarction is rare and its diagnosis can be difficult because of its atypical symptoms. Findings suggested a central pathology, and the CT scan performed afterwards revealed large hypodense infarct areas in the bilateral occipital and parasagittal posterior region of right parietal lobes (Figures 1 and 2).

Further workup on neuroimaging with MRI Brain showed foci of restricted diffusion in bilateral fronto-parietal lobes, bilateral occipital lobe, left posterior temporal lobe as well as the left cerebellar hemisphere, suggestive of bilateral cerebral hemispheric watershed infarcts (Figure 1A and B). Lacunar infarcts are small infarcts in the deeper parts of the brain (basal ganglia, thalamus, white matter) and in the brain stem. They are responsible for about 20 percent of all strokes.

The probable mechanism underlying bilateral occipital infarcts was embolism from … An unfortunate patient with a common pathology illustrated a key principle.

This paper presents a patient with acute, bilateral, and complete loss of vision observed during hemodialysis, proved to be central and due to ischemic infarcts in the bilateral occipital lobes. 2.
