Susac syndrome presenting with acute hemibody paraesthesia
JRSM CARDIOVASCULAR DISEASE(2019)
Abstract
Susac syndrome is an orphan disease characterised by encephalopathy, branch retinal artery occlusion and sensorineural hearing loss. As the clinical triad is rarely present at symptom onset, it is often initially misdiagnosed and appropriate treatment is often delayed. Herewith, we report a case of Susac syndrome in a 47-year-old man presenting with acute hemisensory loss and highlight the challenges of early diagnosis, particularly relevant in the era of hyperacute stroke management.
