Description

In this tutorial, we’ll dive into the pathoanatomy of key neurological conditions and focus on their clinical presentations, diagnostic approaches, and management. Starting with stroke, we’ll discuss localization techniques, distinguishing between hemorrhagic and ischemic types, and identifying specific stroke syndromes based on lesion locations. We’ll also cover syncope and episodic loss of consciousness, with an emphasis on differentiating between syncopal events and seizures.

For epilepsy, we’ll look at key syndromes, underlying pathologies, and principles of seizure management. Additionally, we’ll explore neurodegenerative disorders, examining the features of both central and peripheral nervous system involvement, and link these with observable signs and disease progression.

Throughout the session, we’ll apply this knowledge in clinical scenarios, focusing on identifying pathologies through neurological exam findings and integrating management strategies to support effective patient care.
