Supplementary Motor Area Syndrome and Flexor Synergy of the Lower Extremities
Clinical presentation of supplementary motor area (SMA) syndrome includes complete akinesia of the contralateral side of the body and mutism, with secondary recovery of neurologic deficit. Multi-joint coordination is frequently impaired following the development of a brain lesion and is generally restricted by abnormal patterns of muscle activation within the hemiparetic limb, clinically termed...
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...
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 کاملBasal cell carcinoma of the lower extremities
Background: Basal cell carcinoma (BCC), the most common form of skin cancer, usually occurs in the sun-exposed areas of the body like head and neck, yet is also seen in unexpected sites. Myriad studies have mentioned a lower limb BCC incidence rate of 1.5-13.5%.Methods: The present retrospective cross-sectional study was conducted on 650 BCC patients, who were referred to the dermatology tumor ...
متن کاملFunctional heterogeneity of the supplementary motor area.
BACKGROUND AND PURPOSE The purpose of this study was to assess supplementary motor area (SMA) activation during motor, sensory, word generation, listening comprehension, and working memory tasks by using functional MR imaging (fMRI). Human supplementary motor area (SMA) has been shown to play roles in motor control and other various functions such as sensory, speech expression, and memory. Howe...
