Neuroanatomical Mechanism of Cerebellar Mutism After Stroke
Cerebellar mutism (CM) is a rare neurological condition characterized by lack of speech due to cerebellar lesions. CM is often reported in children. We describe a rare case of CM after spontaneous cerebellar hemorrhage. The patient showed mutism, irritability, decreased spontaneous movements and oropharyngeal apraxia. Diffusion tensor imaging revealed significant volume reduction of medial fron...

متن کاملThe syndrome of 'cerebellar' mutism and subsequent dysarthria.
"Cerebellar" mutism refers to a specific childhood disorder in which a complete but transient loss of speech, followed by dysarthria, occurs after removal of a cerebellar tumor. We present a consecutive series of 15 children with this disorder, which we prefer to designate "mutism and subsequent dysarthria." The conditions in which it develops suggest also an extracerebellar component of cerebe...
متن کاملRemote Cerebellar Hemorrhage Presenting with Cerebellar Mutism after Spinal Surgery: An Unusual Case Report
Dural injury during spinal surgery can subsequently give rise to a remote cerebellar hemorrhage (RCH). Although the incidence of such injury is low, the resulting hemorrhage can be life threatening. The mechanism underlying the formation of the hemorrhage is not known, but it is mostly thought to develop after venous infarction. Cerebellar mutism (CM) is a frequent complication of posterior fos...
متن کاملگزارش دو مورد جالب : موتیسم پس از عمل جراحی گودال خلفی Cerebellar Mutism
Two patients aged 6 and 5 years old with Mutism after posterior fossa surgery are presented. One of them has vermian medulobastoma and the other one has vermian asteroeytoma.
