Pharyngolaryngeal Sensory Deficits in Patients with Middle Cerebral Artery Infarction: Lateralization and Relation to Overall Dysphagia Severity
BACKGROUND Dysphagia is a frequent and dangerous complication of acute stroke. Apart from a well-timed oropharyngeal muscular contraction pattern, sensory feedback is of utmost importance for safe and efficient swallowing. In the present study, we therefore analyzed the relation between pharyngolaryngeal sensory deficits and post-stroke dysphagia (PSD) severity in a cohort of acute stroke patie...
متن کاملMusical, visual and cognitive deficits after middle cerebral artery infarction
The perception of music can be impaired after a stroke. This dysfunction is called amusia and amusia patients often also show deficits in visual abilities, language, memory, learning, and attention. The current study investigated whether deficits in music perception are selective for musical input or generalize to other perceptual abilities. Additionally, we tested the hypothesis that deficits ...
متن کاملEarly hemicraniectomy in patients with complete middle cerebral artery infarction.
BACKGROUND AND PURPOSE Malignant, space-occupying supratentorial ischemic stroke is characterized by a mortality rate of up to 80%. Several reports indicate a beneficial effect of hemicraniectomy in this situation. However, whether and when decompressive surgery is indicated in these patients is still a matter of debate. METHODS In an open, prospective trial we performed hemicraniectomy in 63...
متن کاملPosterior cerebral artery infarction from middle cerebral artery infarction.
BACKGROUND While it is known that posterior cerebral artery (PCA) infarction may simulate middle cerebral artery (MCA) infarction, the frequency and localization of this occurrence are unknown. OBJECTIVE To determine the frequency of PCA infarction mimicking MCA infarction and the territory of the PCA most commonly involved in this simulation. DESIGN We studied 202 patients with isolated in...
متن کاملMalignant middle cerebral artery infarction.
PURPOSE OF REVIEW This review will report on the new aspects of management of 'malignant' middle cerebral artery (MCA) infarctions. RECENT FINDINGS Large MCA infarctions have been associated with high death rates for years. The most reliable predictors of a 'malignant' course are hypodensity in more than 50% of the MCA territory on computed tomography as well as stroke volume greater than 145...
