Multi-modal fMRI and TMS follow-up study of motor cortical stroke caused by hyaluronic acid filler: A case report.

ABSTRACT:

Background

Blindness and stroke resulting from hyaluronic acid (HA) fillers are not frequently reported complications. Reports on stroke recovery after HA injection are limited. In the current study, the recovery process, task-based functional magnetic resonance imaging (fMRI), diffusion tensor imaging (DTI), and neurophysiological changes of a patient with monocular blindness and ipsilateral motor cortical stroke after forehead injection of HA are explored.

Case-report

The study comprised a 34-year-old female patient who presented with left eye blindness and a stroke after receiving an HA injection a month before admission. The lesion was mainly limited to the left precentral gyrus, and the patient had pure arm monoparesis. For 3 weeks, the patient received conventional reh
