ABSTRACT
Ischemic stroke caused by the cerebral vasculopathy is a rare complication of polyneuropathy, organomegaly, endocrinopathy, monoclonal gammopathy, and skin changes (POEMS) syndrome. We present a case of recurrent ischemic strokes caused by cerebral vasculopathy in a patient with POEMS syndrome. A 34-year-old man presented with gait disturbance and dizziness. Brain magnetic resonance imaging demonstrated acute ischemic stroke in the middle cerebral artery-anterior cerebral artery (MCA-ACA) border zones of bilateral hemispheres. Repeated angiographic studies showed progressive worsening of the left distal internal carotid artery, ACA, and MCA stenoses, along with sustained steno-occlusion of right MCA.
