Bilateral paramedian thalamic infarction is a rare subtype of stroke caused by occlusion of the artery of Percheron, an uncommon variant originating from one of the posterior cerebral arteries. This type of stroke has several major clinical presentations: altered mental status, behavioral amnestic
A 28-year-old, previously healthy, normotensive woman suddenly developed an acute pseudobulbar palsy with dysarthria, dysphagia, hypernasal voice and mild right arm paresis. Extensive laboratory investigations excluded all other possible causes of acute pseudobulbar palsy (neoplastic, inflammatory,
A 73 year old man had a pure, acute pseudobulbar syndrome. The pathological study showed only two infarcts of different ages. They involved uncompletely the territories of both anterior cohroidal arteries. On semi-serial sections, both cortico-bulbar tracts were destroyed whereas the cortico-spinal
A case of left atrial (LA) myxoma presenting as pseudobulbar palsy, due to multiple cerebral infarcts, without any cardiac manifestations, is presented. LA myxoma is rare cause of embolization to CNS causing ischemic infarcts. Due to multiple CNS infarcts patient can present with varied clinical
Spinal dural arteriovenous fistulas (DAVF) are usually associated with neurological dysfunction adjacent to the shunt point; however, the symptoms are uncommon far from the site of fistula. To our knowledge, this is the first report of a patient with rapidly progressive isolated Cerebral autosomal dominant arteriopathy with subcortical infarcts and leukoencephalopathy (CADASIL) is characterized clinically by recurrent cerebral infarcts, subcortical dementia and pseudobulbar palsy, and morphologically by a granular degeneration of cerebral and, to a lesser degree,
Cerebral autosomal dominant arteriopathy with subcortical infarcts and leukoencephalopathy (CADASIL) is an inherited autosomal dominant condition characterized by migrane, recurrent stroke, subcortical dementia, and pseudobulbar palsy. It begins with migraine with aura in -33% of patients. CADASIL
Foix-Chavany-Marie syndrome (FCMS) is a rare type of pseudobulbar palsy characterized by automatic-voluntary dissociation of movements of the face, tongue, pharynx, and masticatory muscles. Most cases are due to bilateral ischemic lesions of the anterior operculum, but the syndrome has also been
The medical records and autopsy data of patients over the age of 70 years at death with a diagnosis of cortical artery infarction (CAI) in the Yokufukai Geriatric Hospital were reviewed. Among 690 autopsied cases from 1981 to 1988, there were 45 cases (21 men and 24 women) with CAI available for
Cerebral autosomal dominant arteriopathy with subcortical infarcts and leukoencephalopathy (CADASIL) is a genetically linked neurologic disease characterized by recurrent strokes and progressive or stepwise dementia, with or without migraine-like headaches, seizures, and pseudobulbar palsy. We
A patient with supranuclear upward gaze palsy, pseudobulbar palsy, dementia, asymmetrical pyramidal signs, and atypical parkinsonism that developed after recurrent strokes was reported. The clinical features closely resembled idiopathic progressive supranuclear palsy (PSP). Computerised tomography
Cerebral autosomal dominant arteriopathy with subcortical infarcts and leukoencephalopathy (CADASIL) is a hereditary stroke disease linked to chromosome 19 q 12. We report on two families affected by this disease, which is characterised by recurrent subcortical ischaemic strokes, progressive
OBJECTIVE
To optimize primarily acupuncture program for dysphagia after cerebral infarction.
METHODS
Sixty-three patients with pseudobulbar palsy dysphasia after cerebral infarction were selected as the subjects. Water swallow test was adopted for observation index. Orthogonal design was used to
A 64-year-old man presented with pathologic crying and right hemiplegia due to a unilateral pontine infarct from probable branch disease of the basilar artery. The circumscribed nature of the lesion was supported by MRI and short-latency evoked potentials. The weeping spells ceased after a few days
