A 28-year-old competitive freediver from Antalya presented with transient episodes of visual distortion and confusion during deep dives. Dr. Tuncer identified a rare form of pressure-induced cortical spreading depression mimicking migraine aura. Treatment involved a tailored regimen of acetazolamide and strict dive depth limitations. The patient successfully returned to competitive diving at shallower depths with monitoring.
A 72-year-old retired calligraphy master from Konya developed progressive micrographia and right-hand tremor, mistakenly attributed to arthritis. Dr. Tuncer recognized task-specific dystonia rather than Parkinson's. Botulinum toxin injections combined with sensory retraining using specialized weighted pens allowed the patient to resume his art after three months of therapy.
An 8-year-old refugee child from Syria presented with sudden-onset mutism and right-sided weakness following an airstrike. MRI revealed no structural damage but functional imaging showed diaschisis. Dr. Tuncer employed a novel combination of transcranial magnetic stimulation and trauma-informed play therapy. The child began speaking single words after six weeks and regained full motor function over four months.
A 45-year-old Istanbul ferry captain developed persistent déjà vu episodes and olfactory hallucinations of seawater. Dr. Tuncer diagnosed temporal lobe epilepsy with ictal semiology uniquely tied to maritime navigation. Treatment with lacosamide specifically timed around his work schedule allowed complete seizure control without compromising his maritime license requirements.
