@entity7244 ( @entity7244 ) is a potentially life-threatening disease, which usually presents with @entity385 or @entity510 . @entity7244 presenting with isolated @entity158 is rare, and no case with isolated @entity4254 - ( @entity7443 -) like @entity158 has been reported. Here, we report the case of a 57-year-old male with @entity7244 who presented with acute @entity158 that extended from his left cheek to his left forehead and auricle. He felt a brief stabbing @entity158 when his face was touched in the territory of the first and second divisions of the left trigeminal nerve. There were no other neurological signs. Magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) of the brain 7 days after onset revealed dissection of the @entity7244 without @entity4798 . The @entity158 gradually disappeared in approximately 6 weeks, and the @entity1 remained asymptomatic thereafter, except for a brief episode of vertigo. Follow-up MRI revealed progressive @entity543 without @entity4798 . This case indicates that @entity7244 can present with isolated @entity158 that mimics @entity7443 . @entity7244 should be considered in the differential diagnosis of acute @entity158 or @entity7443 .
