dc.description.abstract | Bickerstaff's brainstem encephalitis is a rare autoimmune disorder that presents with ataxia, ophthalmoplegia, disturbance of consciousness and quadriplegia. A 45-year-old man with a history of ulcerative colitis (UC) taking mesalazine (5-aminosalicylic acid) visited the emergency room presenting with ataxia, ophthalmoplegia and a progressively worsening cognitive impairment. Cerebrospinal fluid analysis showed mild elevation in protein and white blood cell count and increased intracranial pressure. Anti-GQ1b autoantibodies were found positive in the patient's serum and contrast-enhanced brain magnetic resonance imaging showed diffuse leptomeningeal enhancement and pontine lesions. Based on these findings and the patient's clinical course and history, he was diagnosed with Bickerstaff's brainstem encephalitis. Mesalazine was discontinued and high-dose steroid pulse therapy was started, followed by intravenous immunoglobulin, which resulted in gradual improvement of the neurologic symptoms. When an ulcerative colitis patient presents with progressive cognitive impairment, quadriplegia and disturbance of consciousness and gait, Bickerstaff brainstem encephalitis should be considered in the differential diagnosis and prompt immunotherapy may lead to favorable prognosis. | - |
