Recurrent ischaemic stroke unveils polycythaemia vera.

Islam Abdel-Rahman1, Christie Murphy1.   

Abstract

Polycythaemia vera is a recognised cause of ischaemic stroke. If not treated, this condition may result in recurrent strokes. This is a case of a 61-year-old Caucasian man presenting with the inability to ambulate for 3 days. Brain imaging revealed acute and chronic infarctions in the brain stem and the cerebrum. Polycythaemia vera was diagnosed and treated during the admission. The unique mechanisms and management issues of ischaemic stroke associated with polycythaemia vera are discussed. 2015 BMJ Publishing Group Ltd.
