چکیده
|
The most frequently reported neurological complication of a wasp sting is ischemic stroke. we treated a patient with wasp sting with unusual complications. a 52-year-old man was hospitalized for anaphylactic shock after multiple wasp stings. although the patient recovered consciousness after 2 days,he had global aphasia and right hemiparesis. brain magnetic resonance imaging and angiography revealed high-intensity signals in the left basal ganglia and cerebral cortex and stenosis of the left middle cerebral artery. after 2 days,the middle cerebral artery stenosis improved. after 5 days,diffusion-weighted imaging showed an enlarged lesion in the left frontal cortex. the infarct in this case was due to a predominantly unilateral vasoconstrictive hypoxic brain injury from wasp stings. © 2017,asean neurological association. all rights reserved.
