A Case Report: Non-Alcoholic Wernicke Encephalopathy

Year 2019, Volume: 1 Issue: 2, 85 - 88, 03.09.2019

Abstract

Wernicke
encephalopathy (WE) is a life-threatening neurological
 illness caused by thiamine
deficiency. Chronic alcoholism is one of the most important cause of WE,
however, WE may develop in other conditions, such as severe malnutrition, hyperemesis
gravidarum, prolonged parenteral nutrition, malignancies,
bariatric
surgery. WE is presenting with classical findings of cerebellar, ocular and
confusion. Diagnosis of WE is usually made by
history and physical examination. The aim of the treatment is the rapid
correction of thiamine deficiency.
In this report, we present a patient
who with WE had gastrointestinal tract diseases
and had undergone gastrointestinal surgeries
and discuss predisposing
factors as well as diagnostic and therapeutic issues related to this entity.
