Primary pontine hemorrhage and gustatory disturbance: clinicoanatomic study.
نویسندگان
چکیده
A clinicoanatomic study of 12 patients with tegmental-type primary pontine hemorrhage proved the presence of a gustatory disturbance among other clinical symptoms on the same side of the tongue as that of the pontine lesion, and suggested the secondary pathway of gustatory sensation from the solitary tract nucleus ascends without decussation in the homolateral pontine tegmentum. These results contradict textbook descriptions regarding the human secondary gustatory pathway.

متن کاملClinicoanatomic studies in dysarthria: review, critique, and directions for research.
More than 30 years ago, Darley, Aronson, and Brown (1969) proposed clinicoanatomic correlations for seven perceptual types of dysarthria. These correlations have not been systematically re-examined even though imaging technologies developed in recent years provide the means to do so. This review considers data from published imaging studies as well as data from selected medical interventions to...
متن کاملPontine haemorrhage: a clinical analysis of 26 cases.
Correlation with the size of the haematoma, neurological findings and prognosis was studied in 26 cases of hypertensive pontine haemorrhage, using CT. A good prognosis was found with no or mild disturbance of consciousness, normal pupils, and transverse diameter of the haematoma 20 mm or less. Most of the patients with poor prognosis became comatose within two hours of onset. Their pupils were ...
متن کاملAtaxic hemiparesis in patients with primary pontine hemorrhage.
Two patients with small primary pontine hemorrhage developed a syndrome identical to ataxic hemiparesis, one of the lacunar syndromes of Fisher. The possible mechanisms of the homolateral cerebellar signs, pyramidal signs, and dysarthria are discussed. Lesions of the ipsilateral pontine nuclei may be responsible for the homolateral ataxia.
