Abstract
|
|
|
|
Orthostatic hypotension (OH) is commonly associated with autonomic failure in the peripheral nervous system. Less often it is related to central lesions in brainstem and cerebellum. We describe a patient with OH associated with tuberculosis meningoencephalitis involving the brainstem including rostral ventrolateral medulla. This is the first case of OH resulting from focal lesions in the dorsal medulla in a patient with meningoencephalitis.
