Area of Science:

  • Neurology
  • Radiology
  • Critical Care Medicine

Background:

  • A 74-year-old woman with hypertension and dyslipidemia presented with altered consciousness.
  • Initial assessment revealed a Glasgow Coma Scale score of 7, necessitating intubation and ICU admission.

Observation:

  • Initial laboratory tests and cerebral CT scan showed no acute abnormalities.
  • A follow-up CT scan 24 hours later revealed bilateral ischemia in the anterior and middle cerebral artery territories.

Findings:

  • The patient experienced a catastrophic neurological event with no potential for recovery.
  • Bilateral cerebral ischemia was confirmed as the cause of the neurological deficit.

Implications:

  • This case highlights the rapid and devastating progression of ischemic stroke.
  • The findings underscore the importance of timely neuroimaging in altered consciousness cases.
  • Management focused on supportive care due to the severity and lack of recovery potential.
