Does the Supplementary Motor Area Keep Patients with Ondine's Curse Syndrome Breathing While Awake?
BACKGROUND Congenital central hypoventilation syndrome (CCHS) is a rare neuro-respiratory disorder associated with mutations of the PHOX2B gene. Patients with this disease experience severe hypoventilation during sleep and are consequently ventilator-dependent. However, they breathe almost normally while awake, indicating the existence of cortical mechanisms compensating for the deficient brain...
متن کاملPost-Operative Supplementary Motor Area Syndrome
Rationale: Surgical removal of the lesions involving the supplementary motor area, results in immediate motor and speech deficits, which in most cases are reversible. Aim: Extent of removal of the supplementary motor area influences the post-operative deficits. Patients and Methods: 12 cases are included in this study, representing lesions involving the supplementary motor area by intra-axial g...
متن کاملOveractivation of the supplementary motor area in chronic stroke patients.
Stroke induces a loss of neural function, but it triggers a complex amount of mechanisms to compensate the associated functional impairment. The present study aims to increase our understanding of the functional reshape of the motor system observed in chronic stroke patients during the preparation and the execution of movements. A cohort of 14 chronic stroke patients with a mild-to-moderate hem...
متن کاملIntraoperative Motor Symptoms during Brain Tumor Resection in the Supplementary Motor Area (SMA) without Positive Mapping during Awake Surgery
Awake surgery could be a useful modality for lesions locating in close proximity to the eloquent areas including primary motor cortex and pyramidal tract. In case with supplementary motor area (SMA) lesion, we often encounter with intraoperative motor symptoms during awake surgery even in area without positive mapping. Although the usual recovery of the SMA syndrome has been well documented, ra...
متن کاملLower Motor Neuron Findings after Upper Motor Neuron Injury: Insights from Postoperative Supplementary Motor Area Syndrome
Hypertonia and hyperreflexia are classically described responses to upper motor neuron injury. However, acute hypotonia and areflexia with motor deficit are hallmark findings after many central nervous system insults such as acute stroke and spinal shock. Historic theories to explain these contradictory findings have implicated a number of potential mechanisms mostly relying on the loss of desc...
