18歳男性,右利き.17歳より,視野全体に長く一本の斜線が入り,その上下で視野がずれて見える,両視野の眼前の光景が波状に見える,視野全体に大きな数個の斑状暗点が出現するなど多彩な視覚症状が生じ,その後に体外離脱体験(out-of-body experience,以下OBEと略記)として,“自分の姿を左後ろから見ている状態”が生じた.症状は1時間持続し頭痛が後続した.頭部MRIで両側後頭葉の軽度萎縮を認めた.本症例は多彩な視覚症状とOBEを呈し,部分てんかん発作との鑑別を要したが,症状が多彩で持続が長いことから前兆のある片頭痛と診断し,少量のバルプロ酸が著効した.OBEを伴う片頭痛は稀に存在する.

A 38-year-old Japanese male who had traveled in China from September 13 to October 5, 1997, developed fever and severe conjunctivitis from October 20. After he was hospitalized in Kyoto CityHospital for persistent high fever on October 29, he developed muscular weakness and dysphagiawhich continued for two weeks. An electromyogram showed a myogenic pattern, and laboratoryfindings showed significant elevation of serum enzyme levels of muscle origin: CPK, 3, 095 IU/l; aldorase, 195 IU/l; myoglobin, 7, 570 ng/ml, and myoglobinuria, 94, 700 ng/ml. The WBC was 10, 800/111with 45% eosinophils. Muscular biopsy showed degeneration of muscle fibers with infiltration ofmacrophages and lymphocytes.On further inquiry, it was revealed that the patient had eaten smoked bear meat in China onSeptember 30, three weeks prior to the onset of symptoms. A dot-ELISA serologic test for parasiteswas positive forTrichinella. Further, a coiled 1.2 mm longTrichinellalarve was recovered from approximately100 mg of frozen biopsied muscle by an enzyme digestion method. Mebendazole wasgiven to the patient at a dosage of 200 mg/day for seven days. CPK levels were normalized within 3days of the beginning of the treatment, and he was discharged without any symptoms. Physiciansmust be aware of trichinellosis and should include it in their differential diagnosis when examiningpatients with myositis and eosinophilia of unknown origin.
