Abstract

Cervical dystonia (CD) is a form of focal dystonia clinically manifesting as sustained or intermittent contractions of the neck muscles, resulting in abnormal movements, repetitive postures, or both, often leading to pain in most patients. This condition not only impacts patients' mobility, self-care, and daily activities but also presents with sensory and cognitive changes, contributing significantly to disability and social isolation. Despite being the most common type of focal dystonia with an incidence of 4.98/100,000 in Europe, CD is often underdiagnosed or misdiagnosed, leading to delays in appropriate treatment. This paper explores the epidemiology, clinical diagnosis, and assessment of pain in CD, highlighting the challenges in diagnosing this condition due to its similarity to other movement disorders.

Abstract

Background: Vertigo is a symptom that patients often complain about. Vertigo is divided into peripheral and central. One of the causes of central vertigo is ischemic stroke. Ischemic stroke generally occurs in elderly people, but in recent years there has been an increase cases in young people. In addition, the prevalence of stroke is more common in men than women, but recently there has been an increase cases in women. Case summary: A 25-year-old woman presented with sudden vertigo. Physical examination revealed obesity, bidirectional horizontal and vertical nystagmus, left hemiparesis, and hemihypesthesia. Head CT scan showed lacunar infarction in the right basal ganglia and periventricular. The patient was given antiplatelet and vertigo management. Conclusion: Vertigo should be differentiated between peripheral or central vertigo at the emergency department, as it will determine further management. Stroke can occur in young women. Therefore, it is important for clinicians to think about the diagnosis of stroke in patients with vertigo that occur in young women.

Abstract

There are varying reports of 6 to 16% of patients with symptoms similar to trigeminal neuralgia having intracranial tumors. Acoustic neuromas are benign cerebellopontine angle (CPA) tumors that are most frequently responsible for TN-like symptoms. It has been claimed that magnetic resonance imaging can detect brain tumors with great accuracy (92% to 93%). We describe a case of an adult male patient who had trigeminal neuralgia and temporomandibular dysfunction, which were cured; nonetheless, an acoustic neuroma in the CPA was later discovered.

Abstract

One of the causes of low back pain is lumbar spinal stenosis (LSS). LSS is defined as a disorder resulting from degenerative processes leading to narrowing of the spinal canal. The nature of pain in LSS—the neurogenic claudication—was aggravated by upright or extended trunk positions, such as during walking, descending stairs, or simply standing. Patient self-adjustments in response to pain can induce further muscle disturbance and worsen the condition. A 56-year-old male suffering from poor posture with antalgic and Trendelenburg gait. The MRI showed multiple spinal canal stenosis with compression of the L4-S1 nerve roots affected the gait and worsened posture. Physical medicine rehabilitation (PMR) program—including the use of ultrasound diathermy for severe muscle spasm followed by muscle stretching, Transcutaneous Electrical Stimulation (TENS) for pain relief, Neuromuscular Electrical Stimulation (NMES) for muscle strength improvement and several therapeutic exercises—has proven beneficial in reducing patient’s symptoms thus correcting the posture and gait. At this point spinal canal narrowing is not only causing pain with neurological deficit but may lead to posture and gait disturbance that increasing the patient's disability. The use of physical modalities combined with exercise has been shown to benefit patients similarly to surgery but without invasive approach.

Abstract

Introduction: Post Herpetic Neuralgia is a neurological complication of herpes zoster resulting in neuropathic pain syndrome that worsens as a direct result of peripheral nerve damage that occurs during an attack of herpes zoster. It manifests as significant dermatomal pain or abnormal sensations and impacting various aspects of quality of life. Physically, patients may experience fatigue, anorexia, weight loss, insomnia, reduced mobility, and physical inactivity. Psychologically, it can lead to depression, anxiety, emotional burden, difficulty in concentration, and fear. Perineural Injection Therapy (PIT), developed by John Lyftogt, offers a treatment option for chronic neuropathic pain. Case Report: A 65-year-old male, currently unemployed for the past two years and previously worked as a tire repairman, came to the Husada Asih Clinic, with sharp, not radiating, and continuous left facial pain (VAS 9-10). He received treatment comprising Transcutaneous Electrical Nerve Stimulation (TENS) and Low Laser Light Therapy (LLLT) on the left face, combined with PIT injections using 5% dextrose at the left side of the face, targeting dermatomes left N V.1, V.2, V.3, and C3 , with repetition after three weeks. After the third injection, the pain at his left head was reduced (VAS 6). Pain at his left jaw and left neck reduced and became intermittently (VAS 5). Barthel Index : 20/20 (Independent). Discussion: The immediate clinical improvement in PIT administration is attributed to the sensorineural effects of dextrose. Clinically, pain decreases immediately or within 1-2 days after therapy. In this case, three series PIT resulted in significant pain relief, reduced burning sensation, improved left muscle motor function, full mouth opening, eased in eating and speaking, and the ability to resume social activities and work. Conclusion: Perineural injection therapy (PIT), previously developed by John Lyftogt, involves a series of subcutaneous injections using 5% dextrose in sterile water (D5W) near the affected nerve. This regenerative therapy offers pain control for PHN patients by targeting skin nerves as potential pain generators. PIT proves to be a valuable rehabilitation tool for managing PHN.

Abstract

Osteoarthritis  is a form of arthritis that commonly occurs in the hands, hips and knees and affects the patient's level of pain. Osteoarthritis treatment currently uses conservative methods with NSAID therapy to reduce pain. However, long-term use has an impact on the digestive tract. Currently, traditional medicine is in great demand, such as the gods crown extract. The content of the gods crown extract can provide an alternative analgesic without side effects on the digestive tract. The purpose of this study was to measure the effectiveness of gods crown add-on therapy at the pain level of osteoarthritis patients at Bethesda Hospital, Yogyakarta. This study uses secondary data from the randomized clinical trial research design that has been conducted. The study was conducted within 2 weeks with 30 osteoarthritis patients as subjects at Bethesda Hospital, Yogyakarta. The instruments used were the Numerical Rating Scale and Subjective Global Assessment questionnaires. The results showed that there was a significant difference in the average pain level before and after therapy, both in the additional therapy group of Mahkota Dewa extract (p=0.001) and in the standard therapy group (Ibuprofen) (p=0.001). In addition, there was a significant difference in the average pain level where the additional crown of gods group had a larger average difference than the standard therapy (Ibuprofen) (p=0.013). This shows that the additional therapy of Mahkota Dewa extract is effective in reducing the level of pain which is greater in osteoarthritis patients at Bethesda Hospital Yogyakarta compared to the standard Ibuprofen therapy group.

Abstract

Central post-stroke pain (CPSP) is a severe neuropathic pain condition that arises due to direct cerebrovascular lesions affecting the central somatosensory system. It significantly impacts patients' quality of life, disrupting their ability to perform daily activities and maintain social interactions. Despite advancements in stroke treatment, CPSP remains a challenge due to its persistent nature and often inadequate management. CPSP is prevalent among stroke survivors and often underdiagnosed due to its varied and subjective pain characteristics. The diagnosis of CPSP requires careful clinical evaluation and neuroimaging to exclude other pain causes. A multidisciplinary approach combining pharmacological treatments, non-pharmacological therapies and physical therapy is recommended. This review provides an overview of CPSP, including its definition, epidemiology, risk factors, clinical presentation, diagnostic criteria, and treatment options.

Abstract

Tetanus is an infectious nervous system disease characterized by increased muscle tone, caused by the toxin of the bacterium Clostridium tetani (C. tetani). Tetanus infection generally starts from contaminated open wounds. However,we have found an unexpected consequence of tetanus with odontogenic infection as a potential port of entry. A sixty-year-old male patient with a cavity in the second molar of the lower right region complained of weakness and fever since one day before admission to the hospital. The patient's tetanus immunization status was unknown. On the first day of treatment, the patient's complaints progressed to jaw stiffness, inability to open the mouth, difficulty swallowing solid and liquid food, and stiff neck. Clinical signs showed trismus of 1 cm, stiff neck without meningeal signs, and abdominal muscular defense. The patient was diagnosed with tetanus based on clinical findings. Patient stabilization was initiated early to address the shock condition. The patient was administered human tetanus immunoglobulin 3000 IU intramuscularly in the gluteus, intravenous antibiotics ceftriaxone 1 g every 12 hours, and metronidazole 500 mg every 8 hours, diazepam through a syringe pump at a rate of 40 mg/24 hours, nasogastric tube placement, symptomatic and supportive therapy. The patient was admitted to a dark and quiet tetanus isolation room. Rapid diagnosis confirmation and appropriate therapy administration played a crucial role in determining prognosis. As a result, the patient survived and showed clinical improvement after five days of treatment.

Abstract

Stroke was the highest cause of death in the world in 2015. Stroke was the highest cause of death in Indonesia in 2019. DIY Province was ranked 2nd in most stroke cases in Indonesia in 2018. The severity level of the clinical manifestation of ischemic stroke due to vertebrobasilar artery insufficiency is the worst compared to other areas. This research uses a quantitative descriptive method with a retrospective design. The subjects of this research were ischemic stroke patients at Bethesda Hospital Yogyakarta for the period January 2023. This research used a total sampling technique. Vertebrobasilar artery insufficiency data was obtained from non-contrast CT-scan readings in an umbrella study by dr. Sudharmaji, Sp.Rad. Data on clinical manifestations were obtained from medical records. Data were analyzed using univariate tests with Microsoft Excel. There were 30 research samples with distribution of infarct locations in the cerebellum (6), medulla oblongata (1), occipital lobe (8), pons (15), thalamus (3), and patients whose focal parenchymal lesions were not clearly visualized (3). The distribution of clinical manifestations found was right ipsilateral hemiparesis (11), dysarthria (11), vertigo (11), left ipsilateral hemiparesis (8), alternans hemiparesis (1), dysphagia (2), diplegia (1), drop attack (1), polyuria (1), and others (1). The distribution of the most clinical manifestations is ipsilateral right hemiparesis, dysarthria, and vertigo.
