Hypesthetic ataxic hemiparesis in a thalamic lacune.
نویسندگان
چکیده
Right hemiparesis with an ipsilateral hypesthesia and ataxia developed in a 57-year-old man. Magnetic resonance imaging showed a left thalamic lacune bordering the medial portion of the posterior limb of the internal capsule. This finding implicated some pathogenetic mechanism of ataxic hemiparesis.

Hypesthetic-ataxic-hemiparesis in thalamic hemorrhage.
Acute onset hypesthetic-ataxic-hemiparesis is described in two hypertensive patients. Computed tomography (CT) showed an area of increased attenuation consistent with blood in contralateral thalamus. The pathophysiologic implications of the cerebellar and pyramidal system in thalamic hemorrhage is discussed.
متن کاملCapsular hypesthetic ataxic hemiparesis.
Twenty-three patients with hypesthetic ataxic hemiparesis underwent computed tomography or magnetic resonance imaging. Twenty-two patients had infarcts of lacunar or slightly larger size in the contralateral posterior limb of the internal capsule. In 15 patients the infarct extended superiorly into the adjacent paraventricular region, and in seven it extended into the lateral thalmus. In eight ...
متن کاملThe anterior choroidal artery does not supply the corona radiata and lateral ventricular wall.
BACKGROUND AND PURPOSE We sought first to characterize the clinical syndromes of patients found to have angiographic, computed tomographic, or magnetic resonance imaging scan indexes of anterior choroidal artery territory infarction and then to determine the frequency of involvement of the periventricular corona radiata in such patients. METHODS Sixteen patients were selected based on angiogr...
متن کاملAtaxic hemiparesis following thalamic infarction.
We describe a 73-year-old man with ataxic hemiparesis following infarction of the ventrolateral nucleus of the thalamus demonstrated by computed tomography and magnetic resonance imaging. Cerebellar ataxia was most likely due to interruption of the dentatorubrothalamocortical fibers at the level of the injured ventrolateral nucleus. Hemiparesis was probably caused by local edema compressing the...
متن کاملSensory ataxic hemiparesis in thalamic hemorrhage.
Ataxic hemiparesis with cerebellar-like features has been reported following infarction or hemorrhage of the thalamus. We describe five patients with incoordination and corticospinal tract signs in the limbs opposite a dorsolateral thalamic hemorrhage. In four patients the hemorrhage extended superiorly into the lateral ventricle, the adjacent paraventricular region, and the upper and medial pa...
