Foster Kennedy syndrome symptoms

Kennedy disease Genetic and Rare Diseases Information

1. Kennedy disease is a gradually progressive, neuromuscular disorder characterized by wasting of the proximal muscles (those closer to the trunk) and bulbar muscles (those of the face and throat).The condition mainly affects males, with onset between the ages of 30 and 60. Early symptoms may include tremor, muscle cramps, and muscle twitching
2. Although Foster Kennedy syndrome is sometimes called Kennedy syndrome, it should not be confused with Kennedy disease, or spinal and bulbar muscular atrophy, which is named after William R. Kennedy. Pseudo-Foster Kennedy syndrome is defined as one-sided optic atrophy with papilledema in the other eye but with the absence of a mass
3. Kennedy disease is typically an adult-onset disease, where symptoms occur mainly between the ages of 20 and 50. The disease is characterized by symptoms such as muscle weakness and cramps in the arms, legs, and facial area, enlarged breasts, and difficulty with speaking and swallowing (dysphagia)
4. Foster-Kennedy Syndrome is characterized by unilateral visual loss with a compressive optic atrophy in one eye and contralateral papilledema caused by increased intracranial pressure. The same ophthalmoscopic features however can be seen in the pseudo-Foster-Kennedy Syndrome
5. True Foster Kennedy syndrome is the combination of papilledema in one eye and pallor in the other eye due to a large mass lesion causing compressive optic neuropathy and increasing intracranial pressure. True Foster Kennedy syndrome is very rare, and is typically caused by an olfactory groove meningioma

Foster Kennedy syndrome, by definition, is caused by a compressive mass 1,2. This mass directly compresses one optic nerve, accounting for ipsilateral optic nerve atrophy, and causes chronic raised intracranial pressure resulting in contralateral papilledema 1,2 Early symptoms include tremor of the outstretched hands, muscle cramps with exertion, and fasciculations (fleeting muscle twitches visible under the skin). Eventually, individuals develop limb weakness which usually begins in the pelvic or shoulder regions True Foster Kennedy syndrome is rare, but other causes of unilateral disc edema with contralateral optic pallor are more common. These have been termed pseudo-Foster Kennedy syndrome, or PFK. This review will present a recent case report of PFK and discuss differential diagnosis and management of the condition. Case Repor

Management. Treatment for patients with Foster Kennedy syndrome can be divided into medical and surgical management. Initial medical management for symptomatic brain tumors includes oral corticosteroids, which may help to reduce edema surrounding the tumor as well as decrease ICP. 5 Radiotherapy or radiosurgery is also a non-surgical way to shrink the tumor and prevent further growth and. Foster Kennedy syndrome. As originally described by Robert Foster Kennedy (1884-1952), the syndrome of unilateral optic atrophy combined with contralateral papilledema leaves no doubt that a given patient has a brain tumour (1). Ipsilateral hyposmia or anosmia has been variably associated with the syndrome, though not orginally (2) Foster Kennedy syndrome is uncommon, and numerous case series show its incidence to be less than 1% in conjunction with intracranial neoplasms.

In young patients with bilateral INO, multiple sclerosis is often the cause Background The primary aim of our study was to evaluate the impact of a comprehensive self-help guidebook on the disease related quality of life for patients with irritable bowel syndrome (IBS).
