Summary

A 36-year-old woman developed basilar artery thrombosis and isolation syndrome after a sombrevin injection for burns. This rare complication caused temporary vision and eye movement issues, highlighting potential risks.

Area of Science:

Neuroscience

Toxicology

Background:

The case involves a previously healthy 36-year-old woman.
The patient sustained a 16% total body surface area burn.
The study investigates a rare adverse event following a specific medical intervention.

Observation:

An injection of the drug sombrevin was administered.
The patient developed basilar artery thrombosis.
Clinical manifestations included isolation syndrome (IS) with temporary left hemiparesis and vertical ocular divergence.

Findings:

Pathological investigation confirmed an infarct.
The infarct involved the right cerebral peduncle and pontine paramedian regions.
The findings link sombrevin administration to cerebrovascular complications.

Implications:

This case highlights a potential neurovascular complication of sombrevin, particularly in burn patients.
It underscores the importance of monitoring for neurological deficits after such treatments.
Further research may be warranted to understand the mechanism and incidence of this adverse event.
