Instead it is a sign of other disorders. Amaurosis fugax can occur from different causes. One cause is when a blood clot or a piece of plaque blocks an artery in the eye. The blood clot or plaque usually travels from a larger artery such as the carotid artery in the neck or an artery in the heart to an artery in the eye. Plaque is a hard substance that forms when fat cholesterol and other substances build up in the walls of arteries.

"Case study XX - Schmorls node @Ladyspinedoc⚡ Dr. Grunch 🧠 Schmorls nodes are herniations of nucleus pulposus of the intervertebral disc through the cartilaginous and bony endplate into the adjacent vertebra. Schmorls nodes are extremely common and are typically seen as incidental findings on radiographic imaging. In postmortem studies it has been estimated that greater than XX% of the population has Schmorls nodes. Rarely however Schmorls nodes can be a cause of acute back pain and even less often radiculopathy. #neurosurgery #casestudy #sundaycasestudy #ladyspinedoc #healthcareworker"

"During the WNBA Finals Satou Sabally took a hard hit and suffered a concussion. A concussion happens when the brain shifts rapidly inside the skull causing microscopic injury to brain cells. Its not about how hard youre hit - its about how fast your brain moves. ⚡ Symptoms can include dizziness confusion nausea headache or sensitivity to light and noise. ⚡ You dont have to lose consciousness to have a concussion. Female athletes experience longer recovery times and often underreport symptoms due to pressure to keep playing. Thats why concussion education and honest communication matter more"

"Replying to @donnasamjones case XX - Lumbar Disc Hernation A herniated disc (also called bulged slipped or ruptured) is a fragment of the disc nucleus that is pushed out of the annulus into the spinal canal through a tear or rupture in the annulus. Discs that become herniated usually are in an early stage of degeneration. The spinal canal has limited space which is inadequate for the spinal nerve and the displaced herniated disc fragment. Due to this displacement the disc presses on spinal nerves often producing pain which may be severe. Herniated discs can occur in any part of the spine."

By placing a stimulating electrode over the spinal cord the pain signal cannot be sent up from the spine to the brain. After a patient has been evaluated and non-surgical treatments have been used spinal cord stimulation is considered to help manage chronic pain. A patient will often undergo mental health"

This degeneration can occur slowly over time as a person ages and it's most common in people over XX years of age. It often occurs in the lower back or lumbar spine which is most susceptible to changes due to aging. Degenerative scoliosis can also be accompanied by spinal stenosis which is a narrowing of the spinal canal that can pinch the spinal nerves. #sundaycasestudy #ladyspinedoc"

"Nothing like getting this call at 3am - an adrenaline rush like no other For neurosurgeons who take trauma calls 24-hour availability and readiness are critical. Due to the scarcity of physicians in our speciality we often take call many times per week or many days in a row. Not every trauma center has neurosurgery residents and mine does not. So either the surgeon on call or their APP may fulfill this requirement. But if the patients life is on the line we need to be there even faster. #neurosurgery #trauma #oncall"

"- Amaurosis fugax is not itself a disease. Instead it is a sign of other disorders. Amaurosis fugax can occur from different causes. One cause is when a blood clot or a piece of plaque blocks an artery in the eye. The blood clot or plaque usually travels from a larger artery such as the carotid artery in the neck or an artery in the heart to an artery in the eye. Plaque is a hard substance that forms when fat cholesterol and other substances build up in the walls of arteries. Risk factors include: * Heart disease especially irregular heartbeat * Alcohol abuse * Cocaine use * Diabetes *"

This causes high-pressure arterial blood to flow directly into fragile veins which were never designed to handle that stress. Over time this can lead to: ⚠ Micro-bleeds (tiny often silent leaks) ⚠ Seizures or headaches ⚠ Stroke or hemorrhage if rupture occurs AVMs are often congenital meaning people are born with them but they may not cause symptoms until later in life.
