You're asked to examine the neurological system in the lower limbs. On general inspection this is what you find.
What differential diagnoses would you consider?

Just finished a long stretch of nights @BrighamMedRes, so perfect time for a #MedTwitter #Tweetorial on what I was paged for most - antipsychotics for delirium.
Executive Summary: avoid antipsychotics for delirium, and if you give them, be sure to see the patient first!!!

A patient presents to you with double vision.
On examination of their eyes you notice this...
What's the diagnosis and how would you distinguish the possible causes?

You know you have found the right career, when you see "VST" and think "omg one of my favorites!" Happy to add to the #tweetorial @AaronLBerkowitz!
Recognizing VST IS hard! So, an appreciation of the "classic" imaging findings is key
@RyanBPetersonMD would have more, i'm sure https://twitter.com/AaronLBerkowitz/status/1382383629007949828

Your patient that is “over breathing” the vent may still be dead by brain criteria.

And now for a #neurology #tweetorial. Today’s topic: Trigeminal Autonomic Cephalagias or #TACs for short. Hopefully, you can learn more about a lesser known, but very debilitating group of diseases. #NeuroTwitter #MedTwitter #MedEd #HeadacheDisorders 1/

Was #TheDarkKnight's Two-Face the product of brain injury? Harvey Dent was hospitalized after surviving the explosion and disfiguring burns that transformed him into the psychopathic villain, Two-Face. The background offers insight into the villain's psychological origins. (1/6)

Worried about the feared "posterior stroke" in pts w/vertigo? You should think twice about CT and skip to MRI. No joke, CT is likely to be a false reassurance. Here's a @MedTweetorials #medtwitter #FOAMed. @RosenelliEM

Thought about one slide, but this needs a #tweetorial! So that you aren't 😬😬😬 when confronted with this:

Parinaud Syndrome got brought up today during @CPSolvers #EndNeurophobia #VMR with @AaronLBerkowitz
What is it?
Well, it is a constellation of signs and symptoms that are caused by compression of the rostral midbrain and pretectum at the level of the superior colliculus.

My last #tweetorial focused on the GCS. Now let's look at another hugely important clinical window into the brain: the pupil. What does a 'blown pupil' really imply? What about small fixed pupils? To understand this, we need to see how pupil size is governed. #FOAMed 1/20

A patient presents with new onset of facial paralysis; is this a Stroke (ahhhhh!) or something else (relax?).
