The clinical syndrome of border-zone ischemia is described in eight patients. Cerebral damage in four occurred during or after cardiac surgery and the other four patients had each experienced a period of severe hypotension. Cerebral blindness and visual disorientation are the most regular features
OBJECTIVE
To report the clinical and imaging findings in a patient with an initial fluctuating disconnection syndrome due to corpus callosal ischemia that ultimately culminated in infarction with persistent symptoms.
METHODS
A 40-year-old, hypertensive, right-handed man presented with transient,
A 74-year-old right-handed man with multiple cerebral infarction who presented with dementia simulating dementia of Alzheimer type (DAT) is reported. He had been well until April 20, 1987 when he developed transient right hand palsy lasting overnight. Eleven days later, he became confused,
Pure alexia is severe difficulty in reading and understanding written language but with normal oral language and writing abilities. We report a patient with pure alexia caused by two different infarct lesions in the left lateral thalamus and the left splenium of the corpus callosum. A 56-year-old
Although it is commonly assumed that posterior temporo-parietal regions are the regions of the brain essential for accessing orthographic representations for written output, patients with lesions in these areas also have reading and/or naming impairments at least early after stroke onset. This
We herein report the fourth case of cerebral infarction, concomitant with hemorrhagic shock, in English literature. A 33-year-old male, who had been diagnosed with schizophrenia and given a prescription for Olanzapine, was discovered with multiple self-inflicted bleeding cuts on his wrist. On
Higher visual disorders as discussed in this paper comprise visual hallucinations, palinopsy, hemineglect, Balint Holmes syndrome, prosopagnosia, visual objectagnosia, alexia without agraphia and cerebral achromatopsia. Such disorders are frequently caused by ischemia, but tumors, trauma and
Cortical blindness is defined as a loss of vision due to bilateral retrogeniculate lesions (geniculocalcarine blindness). Gerstmann's syndrome is a combination of disorientation for left and right, finger agnosia, and profound agraphia, alexia, and acalculia. It is due to a lesion in the left
