A Stroke Mimic With Postictal Todd's Paresis and a Simplified Guide to Management of Acute Hyponatremia.
Curēus 2023 September
Stroke mimics typically involve non-vascular disease processes, accounting for approximately half of hospital admissions for suspected stroke. These mimics may manifest as functional (conversion) disorders or indicate other neurological or medical conditions, including hypoglycemia, brain tumors, toxic poisoning, migraines, sepsis, seizures, and electrolyte imbalances, which can imitate stroke symptoms, making the diagnosis complex. In this report, we present a unique case of a man in his sixties who developed acute postoperative hyponatremia, an electrolyte abnormality frequently encountered but rarely presented with focal neurological deficits. This condition resulted in facial asymmetry and hemiparesis; however, the remarkable outcome was that these deficits were completely resolved once the hyponatremia was corrected.
