How Good at Neurology are you? – Questions

Abstract

1. Consider the following case.

A 61-year-old man woke up one morning with the feeling that his tongue was swollen. Also his speech was a bit slurred and he had difficulty swallowing. Two days before he had had a left-sided headache, which was unusual for him. Otherwise his medical history was unremarkable. The relevant signs are shown in the two photographs (Fig 1 and 2). What is your diagnosis?
