https://www.selleckchem.com/products/XL184.html We report a case of a 22-year-old male with a history of intravenous drug use presenting with cavernous sinus syndrome secondary to cavernous thrombophlebitis. The source of the thrombophlebitis was from a mycotic aneurysm in the setting of fungal endocarditis. With antifungal therapy and aortic valve replacement, the patient had full resolution of cranial nerve deficits. Descriptions of mycotic aneurysms of the cavernous portion of the internal carotid artery are limited to case reports and case series. Most have been nonendocarditic in etiology with poor prognosis. We present a unique case with endocarditic etiology and an excellent prognosis.The Modified Intracerebral Hemorrhage (MICH) score is a simple tool created to provide prognostication in basal ganglia hemorrhages. Current prognostic scores, including the MICH, are based on the assessment of baseline patient characteristics, failing to account for significant developments, such as intraventricular extension and clinical deterioration, which may occur over the first 72 hours. We propose to validate the MICH in all hemorrhage locations and hypothesize that its calculation at 72 hours will outperform its baseline counterpart with respect to predicting mortality and functional outcome. We performed a retrospective analysis of collated data from the Virtual International Stroke Trials Archive database. Primary outcome was 90-day mortality. Secondary outcome was poor outcome (modified Rankin Scale 4-6) at 90 days. Receiver operating characteristic curves were generated looking at the predictive ability of the MICH score for mortality and poor outcome, at baseline and at 72 hours. Competing curves were assessed with nonparametric methods. A total of 226 patients were included, with a 90-day mortality of 22.5%. The MICH scores calculated at 72 hours were more predictive of mortality than at baseline (area under the curve [AUC] 0.89 [95% confidence interval [CI] 0.83-
