Sažetak
Parkinsonism after carbon monoxide intoxication occurs in 10% of patients. Lesions of globus pallidus and white matter lesions are common findings on brain MRI in these patients. Aim oft he study was to present a patient with parkinsonsim due to carbon monoxide intoxication. We describe a 72-year male patient who presented to our out-patient clinic with worsening of symptoms that have been present for the past five years consisting of progresive gait disturbance with starting hesitation and difficulties with fast turning around himself. In his neurological examination we found short step gait in anteflexion with starting hesitation, mild masked face, micrography and mild upward gaze palsy. He has been treated beacuse of arterial hypertension and diabetes mellitus. In the age of 34, the patient was hospitalized because of a comatose state due to carbon monoxide intoxication, and the initial critical care management included cardiopulmonary resuscitation. Since then he complains of difficulties with movement synchronization. Brani MRI and CT showed malatic lesions with calcifications in both basal ganglia and the signs of cerebro-vascular disease. A symptomatic treatment has been started with L-dopa and later on dopamine agonist and has not been succesful. Patients with carbon monoxide intoxication that had undergone cardio-pulmonary resuscitation might develop parkinsonism due to bilateral lesions of basal ganglia, which can be confirmed with neuroradiological examination.
