Morris, M. Grundman. Savoiardo M, Erbetta A, Storchi G, Girotti F. Case 159: cerebral amyloid angiopathy-related inflammation. This article reviews the pathology and pathogenesis, clinical and imaging manifestations, diagnostic criteria, treatment, and prognosis of CAA-RI, and highlights unsolved problems in the existing research. [18] Although the APOE 2 allele is considered a protective factor against AD, it clearly increases the risk of vascular disease. A case of cerebral amyloid angiopathy-related inflammation with the rare apolipoprotein epsilon2/epsilon2 genotype. Rapid progressive dementia, headache, seizures, or focal neurological deficits, with patchy or confluent hyperintensity on T2 or fluid-attenuated inversion recovery sequences and evidence of strictly lobar microbleeds or cortical superficial siderosis on susceptibility-weighted imaging imply CAA-RI. Andersen OM, Rudolph IM, Willnow TE. CAA-RI is now widely recognized as a relatively rare and aggressive subtype of CAA with diverse clinical presentations and characteristic radiological findings.

It may also be possible that, due to sampling error on biopsy,the pathological diagnosis does not reflect the global picture depicted on imaging 6. [2527] ARIA is also divided into two categories: ARIA-E, which manifests as focal or confluent vasogenic edema on fluid-attenuated inversion recovery (FLAIR) sequence images, and ARIA-H, characterized by CMBs or cSS on T2-weighted gradient-echo/susceptibility-weighted imaging (SWI) sequence scans, corresponding to the image hallmarks of CAA-RI.

A report of 2 cases. The diagnosis of inflammatory cerebral amyloid angiopathy on clinicoradiologic grounds requires the exclusion of other causes: amyloid-related imaging abnormalities (ARIA)seen in patients treated with amyloid lowering therapies 13, infection, such as progressive multifocal leukoencephalopathy (PML)or meningoencephalitis of various causes, vascular pathologies, such as primary CNS vasculitisor posterior reversible encephalopathy syndrome (PRES), Please Note: You can also scroll through stacks with your mouse wheel or the keyboard arrow keys. 24. [16,17] However, the terms used to describe this disease are confusing. Overall, it is believed that immunotherapy would result in better clinical outcomes in patients. MRI is the modality of choice in assessing these patients as it is able to visualize the characteristic peripheral microhemorrhages of cerebral amyloid angiopathy. A study has shown that more patients with ABRA (33.0%) require a combination of steroids and immunosuppressants than do patients with ICAA (12.8%), to achieve similar outcomes. Similar clinical processes and radiological changes of CAA-RI appear in amyloid-related imaging abnormalities (ARIA), initially during the clinical trial of bapineuzumab, the monoclonal antibody for AD, and later in that of other amyloid modification therapies. 2022 Apr;12(2):e4-e6. Cerebral amyloid angiopathy (CAA) is a condition in which proteins called amyloid build up on the walls of the arteries in the brain. 55. Gera A, Witek N, Bailey M. Pearls & Oy-sters: CAA-related inflammation presents as subacute cognitive decline in a patient with Parkinson disease. 37. 15 (8): 54. This is in most cases a non-inflammatory age-related condition that is associated with cerebral hemorrhage, infarcts, leukoencephalopathy and dementia. However, biopsy is invasive; consequently, some criteria for the diagnosis of CAA-RI have been based on clinical and radiological data. Bethesda, MD 20894, Web Policies [12,14,18] The erythrocyte sedimentation rate was increased in 37.5% of patients, while C-reactive protein (CRP) was elevated in 60%. There are two recognized pathologically characterized variants: cerebral amyloid angiopathy-related inflammation (CAAri) and A beta-related angiitis (ABRA). Multimodality Review of Amyloid-related Diseases of the Central Nervous System. A significant proportion of patients respond readily to treatment with corticosteroids, with or without a cytostatic agent,with improvement evident within a week or two of commencement of treatment. [2,46,68] The most common abnormality found in PACNS is the presence of proximal or distal stenosis on MRA or conventional digital subtraction angiography; this is not commonly seen in CAA-RI. Before There are still many questions related to CAA-RI that require investigation. However, biopsy is invasive; consequently, most clinically diagnosed cases have been based on clinical and radiological data. Besides, the study did not propose a specific treatment or plan for further examination for patients meeting a diagnosis of possible CAA-RI. Amyloid beta-related angiitis--a case report and comprehensive review of literature of 94 cases. Immunosuppressants can be administered in cases showing no response to glucocorticoids or for preventing recurrence. 41 (3): 446-448. These cases emphasize that CAA-RI is a diagnosis by exclusion.

It is easy for doctors to diagnose CAA-RI when patients were APOE 4/4 homozygotes with typical clinical characteristics and image. Scolding NJ, Joseph F, Kirby PA, Mazanti I, Gray F, Mikol J, et al. 6. These symptoms may also include seizures and cognitive decline. Subcortical white matter will demonstrate usually a solitary area of low density with localized mass effect 1,2. [55,56] Thus, 2 carriers may also be predisposed to CAA-RI.

Slightly symptomatic cerebral amyloid angiopathy-related inflammation with spontaneous remission in four months. Anti-amyloid beta autoantibodies in cerebral amyloid angiopathy-related inflammation: implications for amyloid-modifying therapies. Terminology Cerebral amyloid angiopathy-related inflammation (CAA-RI) is a rare but increasingly recognized subtype of CAA. Inflammatory cerebral amyloid angiopathyis an uncommon cerebral amyloid deposition disease, closely related to the far more common non-inflammatory cerebral amyloid angiopathy,and can present as areas of vasogenic edema. Nakaya M, Hashimoto H, Usui G, Sawada K, Shirouzu I, Oshima A, Okubo S, Yamada H, Morikawa T. Cardiovasc Pathol. Clinicians should have a comprehensive understanding of the disease and order an MRI with multiple sequences, including T2 or SWI, in patients with suspected CAA-RI, particularly in those cases whose T2/FLAIR images show hypointense dots. There is currently no long-term follow-up cohort to establish prognosis, and differences in prognoses associated with different therapies for different subtypes are worth investigating. In general, the same patient group affected by cerebral amyloid angiopathy is affected, and thus most patients are elderly, typically 60-80 years of age. CAA-RI consists of two subtypes: inflammatory cerebral amyloid angiopathy and amyloid (A)-related angiitis. 21. Du Y, Liu C, Ma C, Xu X, Zhou X, Zhou H, et al. This highlights the significance of the T2/SWI sequences in differentiation. Other synonyms used for this entity include cerebral amyloid inflammatory vasculopathy,amyloid angiopathy and granulomatous angiitis of the central nervous system,cerebral amyloid angiitis, primary angiitis of the central nervous system associated with cerebral amyloid angiopathy, and cerebral amyloid angiopathy associated with giant cell arteritis9. [39] One patient with a history of Parkinson's disease (PD) was mistakenly thought to have developed the mental manifestation of PD when he presented with the symptoms of CAA-RI. to maintaining your privacy and will not share your personal information without One case was initially suspected of PRES or cerebral venous sinus thrombosis and was treated with anticoagulant and steroid. Tumors including primary central nervous system lymphomas and metastases should be taken into consideration when making a diagnosis in such patients. In the remainder, which accounts for 60% of all affected individuals, even with treatment severe disability or death are encountered 2. The gold standard for diagnosis is autopsy or brain biopsy. 2022 Nov 14;11(22):6731. doi: 10.3390/jcm11226731. CAA causes bleeding into the brain ( hemorrhagic stroke) and dementia. This also reflects the importance of the SWI sequence. 26. Tumoral presentation of homonymous hemianopia and prosopagnosia in cerebral amyloid angiopathy-related inflammation. It is generally recommended that brain biopsy should be performed from an area with abnormal radiologic manifestations, preferably at a lesion in the cortex or leptomeninges. Cerebral amyloid angiopathy. Still others refer to only cerebral amyloid angiopathy-related inflammation alone 1,4,5,10or amyloid -related angiitis alone 7without mention of the other. However, there are many atypical cases or cases without T2/SWI sequence that were initially misdiagnosed, in whom the diagnosis was later revised. Because of the similarity between CAA-RI and ARIA, the first theory seems unreasonable. Highlight selected keywords in the article text. Raghavan P, Looby S, Bourne TD, Wintermark M.

The major clinical manifestations of CAA-RI are subacute mental disorders and behavioral or cognitive changes, headaches, seizures, and focal neurological deficits, which are different from CAA. Cerebral amyloid angiopathy related inflammation (CAA-ri) is a rare encephalopathy resulting from perivascular inflammation after -amyloid (A) deposition in cerebral vessels leading to progressive dementia, focal neurological signs, seizures and intracerebral hemorrhages. 2022 Jul;9(7):1102-1103. doi: 10.1002/acn3.51596. Curr Opin Neurol 2018; 31:2835. 8600 Rockville Pike Sakai K, Ueda M, Fukushima W, Tamaoka A, Shoji M, Ando Y, et al. [11] The most commonly used immunosuppressants are cyclophosphamide (33.9%), azathioprine (5.0%), mycophenolate mofetil (5.0%), methotrexate, immunoglobulin, and so on. In patients who respond to treatment, imaging follow-up demonstrates regression of the aforementioned inflammatory findings. Inflammatory cerebral amyloid angiopathy is an uncommon cerebral amyloid deposition disease, closely related to the far more common non-inflammatory cerebral amyloid angiopathy , and can present as areas of vasogenic edema. [11] This phenomenon may be explained by the fact that the blood vessel wall in cases of ICAA is less destroyed than that in cases of ABRA. However, given the segmental distribution of the lesions, they may be missed by the biopsy, which will lead to a missed diagnosis. Sallles E, Bonneville F, Delisle MB, Rigal E, Raposo N, Pariente J. After several recurrences, WMH and CMBs progressed and long-term follow-up led to a diagnosis of CAA-RI. Other differential diagnoses include viral or autoimmune encephalitis, cerebral venous thrombosis, acute disseminated encephalomyelitis (ADEM), Hashimoto encephalopathy, neurosarcoidosis, and acute toxic-metabolic leukoencephalopathy. [22,31] In fact, both ICAA and ABRA can present with or without granulomatous inflammation. Please enable it to take advantage of the complete set of features! There have been few epidemiological studies on CAA-RI. Renard D, Tatu L, Collombier L, Wacongne A, Ayrignac X, Charif M, et al. Unauthorized use of these marks is strictly prohibited. Cerebral amyloid angiopathy (CAA) is an important cause of cognitive impairment and spontaneous intracerebral hemorrhage in the elderly. Cerebral amyloid angiopathy-related inflammation (CAAri) is characterized by vasogenic edema and multiple cortical/subcortical microbleeds, sharing several aspects with the recently defined amyloidrelated imaging abnormalities (ARIA) reported in Alzheimer's disease (AD) passive immunization therapies. Cerebral amyloid angiopathy is a common small vessel disease in the elderly involving vascular amyloid- deposition. In addition, the treatment of infection and other comorbidities should be considered in such cases. 46. 8600 Rockville Pike doi: 10.5853/jos.2015.17.1.17.

In addition, when starting the treatment, infection needs to be ruled out first, to avoid pervasion due to corticosteroid therapy. 60. The patient met the criteria for probable cerebral amyloid angiopathy-related inflammation (CAA-ri) and responded favorably to high-dose methylprednisolone. The white matter hyperintensity represents vasogenic edema, which may show localized mass effect. Cerebral Amyloid Angiopathy and Cerebral Amyloid Angiopathy-Related Inflammation: Comparison of Hemorrhagic and DWI MRI Features. Cerebral amyloid angiopathy is often asymptomatic, which can cause dementia, intracranial hemorrhage, or transient neurological events. 52. The clinical manifestations of PACNS can also mimic the pattern of CAA-RI. Nelson T, Leung B, Bannykh S, Shah KS, Patel J, Dumitrascu OM. Unable to process the form. Corticosteroid therapy in a patient with cerebral amyloid angiopathy-related inflammation. An increase in inflammatory biomarkers has been observed in CAA-RI patients in different studies. Due to the potentially reversible WMH in ICAA,[43] when clinical manifestations are present and findings on conventional MRI sequences are suggestive, it must be distinguished from PRES, which also has the characteristic of bilateral confluent T2 WMH, but is often associated with hypertension or other conditions.

Intravascular large B-cell lymphoma mimicking cerebral amyloid angiopathy-related inflammation. Thus, amyloid positron emission tomography (PET) might be important for the diagnosis of CAA-RI, by showing sites with markedly elevated amyloid deposition.[11,52,53]. In addition, there is a need to determine more biomarkers by which to modify the diagnostic criteria and further improve diagnostic efficiency. 2022 Nov;43(11):6381-6387. doi: 10.1007/s10072-022-06299-y.

Accessibility Cerebral amyloid angiopathy-related inflammation (CAA-RI) is a rare but increasingly recognized subtype of CAA. [14] Based on the criteria of leptomeningeal enhancement, the sensitivity and specificity of recognizing CAA-RI from CAA patients are reported to be 70.4% and 92.6%, respectively. Eng JA, Frosch MP, Choi K, Rebeck GW, Greenberg SM. Leptomeningeal contrast enhancement is seen in approximately half of patients 1,2. [19,29,30] Usually, B lymphocytes are fewer compared to T cells. Sporadic cerebral amyloid angiopathy (CAA) is a common age-related small vessel disease of the brain, characterized by progressive deposition of amyloid- peptide in the walls of small- to medium-sized arteries, arterioles, and capillaries of the cerebral cortex and overlying leptomeninges [ 1 ]. Salloway SP, Sperling R, Fox NC, Sabbagh MN, Honig LS, Porsteinsson AP, et al. Teaching neuro: cerebral amyloid angiopathy-related inflammation presenting with isolated leptomeningitis. That is, 50% of all cases showed overlap between ICAA and ABRA patterns. PMC [11] The gold standard test for diagnosis is autopsy or brain biopsy. [18] The clinical and radiological manifestations may be initially relieved after glucocorticoid therapy, but can relapse after withdrawal of steroids or during dose decrease.
