Acute corticospinal tract Wallerian degeneration is associated with stroke outcome.
BACKGROUND AND PURPOSE In children with stroke, poor motor outcome is associated with early Wallerian degeneration of the corticospinal tract that is seen on diffusion-weighted MRI. In this study we test the hypothesis that early diffusion changes also occur in the corticospinal tract (CST) of adults after stroke and that these lesions are associated with poor outcome. METHODS In this retrosp...
متن کامل[Wallerian degeneration after stroke: a new prognostic factor?].
Wallerian degeneration (WD) after ischemic stroke has been associated to persistent motor impairment, but signal intensity changes on conventional magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) are generally not detected until four weeks after the event. We report a 54 year old male patient, referred to our hospital for sudden-onset left hemiparesis. Cerebral CT showed right fronto-parietal infarct (middle c...
متن کاملThe Early Changes in the Axoplasm during Wallerian Degeneration
Axoplasmic changes were studied in the saphenous nerve of the albino rat during the early stages of Wallerian degeneration. The axons were examined at 0, 24, and 48 hours after the surgical transection of the nerve. The material was fixed in 2 per cent OsO(4) in phosphate buffer (pH 7.2-7.5) with sucrose (added to a final osmolar concentration of approximately 0.37 M). The earliest changes were...
