Comorbid SUNCT Syndrome and Opalski Syndrome Caused by Dorsolateral Medullary Infarction
Abstract
Opalski syndrome is a rare variation of lateral medullary syndrome (LMS) accompanied by ipsilateral hemiparesis. Short-lasting unilateral neuralgiform headaches with conjunctival injection and tearing (SUNCT) is a rare headache syndrome which belongs to the trigeminal autonomic cephalalgias. SUNCT syndrome has been previously described in association with LMS. We here describe a case of SUNCT syndrome with Opalski syndrome caused by dorsolateral medullary infarction.
