The 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...

The spectrum of the protein waste in 36 paediatric patients undergoing abdominal explorationsyv/ho were infused three different concentrations of dextrose solutions without aminoacids is presented. When 10 and 15 per cent dextrose solutions were infused insulin levels increased, free fatty acids decreased and much more protein was wasted. The mean nitrogen losses in groups of 5%, DW, 10% DW and...
متن کاملNeuroanatomical 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 کاملCerebellar and cortical abnormalities in paediatric opsoclonus-myoclonus syndrome.
AIM Paediatric opsoclonus-myoclonus syndrome (OMS) is a poorly understood condition with long-term cognitive, behavioural, and motor sequelae. Neuroimaging has indicated cerebellar atrophy in the chronic phase, but this alone may not explain the cognitive sequelae seen in many children with OMS. This study aimed to determine the extent of structural change throughout the brain that may underpin...
