Vertigo and Ischemic Stroke after Hyperextension (Beauty Parlour Stroke syndrome).

Beauty parlour stroke syndrome is a stroke syndrome that occurs secondary to hyperextension of the neck due to compression of the vertebral artery in the atlanto-occipital region. It was first defined as "pearl beauty stroke syndrome" in 1992 by Weintraub et al. Vertigo syndrome caused by cervical region pathologies, bad posture of the neck and/or trauma [1]. We present a young, 23-year-old patient who has no disease, no trauma history nor substance-drug use. He was diagnosed with vertigo that started after going to the barber's and then had an infarction in the cerebellum.

Creutzfeldt-Jakob Disease with Stroke-Like Symptoms: Case report.

Creutzfeldt-Jakob disease (CJD) is a rare, progressive, and fatal prion disease. Often the first sign of CJD is rapidly progressive dementia, leading to memory loss, personality changes, and hallucinations. Myoclonus typically occurs in 90% of cases, but often may not be an initial symptom. Other frequently occurring psychiatric symptoms include depression, anxiety, paranoia, obsessive-compulsive symptoms, and psychosis.
