ABSTRACT
The association of an acute encephalopathy, neurosensory hearing loss and retinal branch artery occlusions in a 35 year old man as well as the absence of systemic disease suggest the diagnosis of Susac's syndrome. This is the eighth male case described, the syndrome being more frequently reported in females.

ABSTRACT
Two cases of bilateral facial palsy after hymenoptera sting are presented. In both cases, the neurological examination is otherwise normal, a lymphoplasmocytic reaction is present in the CSF, no other etiology is found, and the recovery is complete. The neurological complications of hymenoptera sting and the differential diagnosis of bilateral facial palsy are discussed.
