亲密伴侣暴力(IPV)是一个日益严重的公共卫生问题,每年都有数百万人经历IPV。IPV的后果包括心理障碍,身体健康的变化,在极端情况下,严重残疾或死亡。这里,我们描述了一个经历过IPV的病人,导致各种神经症状,10天后被诊断为大脑后动脉(PCA)脑血管意外(CVA)。虽然创伤性脑损伤导致CVA的病例,或中风,已经被记录在案,目前关于神经系统并发症的文献报道有限,特别是中风,继发于成人IPV。由于这种有限的报告,未来的IPV研究需要充分了解可能发生的长期神经系统并发症.
Intimate partner violence (IPV) is a growing public health concern, with millions of individuals experiencing IPV each year. Consequences of IPV include psychological disturbances, changes in physical health, and in extreme cases, severe disablement or death. Here, we describe a case of a patient who experienced IPV, leading to a variety of neurological symptoms, and was diagnosed with a posterior cerebral artery (PCA) cerebrovascular accident (CVA) 10 days later. While cases of traumatic brain injury leading to CVA, or stroke, have been documented, there is currently limited reported literature on the neurological complications, specifically stroke, secondary to IPV in adults. Due to this limited reporting, future studies on IPV will be needed to fully understand the long-term neurological complications that may occur.
