3A0 Case 3 History
Case 3 History --- This 25-year-old man, a world traveler, presented to hospital four days after returning to Canada following a two-month tour of Costa Rica, Panama and the Caribbean. His complaints consisted of headache, nausea and vomiting, paresthesia of the right arm and leg, and aphasia for approximately three weeks. An MRI scan showed on T1- weighted images a hypointense lesion in the left temporal region with heterogeneous gadolinium enhancement which worsened over the next month. He subsequently underwent a left temporal lobectomy. (Images prepared from virtual slide, AANP Diagnostic Slide Session 2003, Case 9)
