Abstract
There was presented a clinical case of early recognition of inflammatory form of cerebral amyloid angiopathy in patient with severe diffuse headache, slightly responding to analgetics, and focal signs of pyramidal and cerebellar involvement. Clinical and radiological data were sufficient to make diagnosis of probable inflammatory form of cerebral amyloid angiopathy. Pulse-therapy with methylprednisolone was performed, followed by clinical and MRI data improvement. After 4 month relapse the cephalgia took place again due to viral infection. Pulse-therapy with corticosteroids was repeated with clinical improvement.
