A case of late onset striatonigral degeneration.

We report the case of a 78-year-old patient who had a parkinsonian syndrome which did not respond to levodopa treatment. The duration of the illness was four years. The main clinical features were bradykinesia and rigidity. He also showed pseudobulbar and pyramidal syndromes. The prominent pathological findings were a severe neuronal loss in the depigmented substantia nigra and in the putamen, which showed a brownish discoloration. Although the late age of onset is unusual, the findings suggest striatonigral degeneration. The link of this disease to multiple system atrophy is discussed.

Acute dysautonomia and arteriovenous malformation of the brain stem.

A patient with acute pure dysautonomia also suffered from several episodes of transient diplopia and hemiparesthesiae which were related to an arteriovenous malformation in the pons. The clinical presentations and the radiological diagnosis of arteriovenous malformations of the brain stem are reviewed, as well as the semiology and etiopathogeny of acute dysautonomia. No relationship was found between these two rare affections.
