Cheiro-oral syndrome with bilateral oral involvement: a study of pontine lesions by high-resolution magnetic resonance imaging.
نویسندگان
چکیده
Two cases of unusual cheiro-oral syndrome due to small pontine haemorrhage are described, in which both sides of the mouth were involved in the initial stage. High resolution magnetic resonance imaging revealed a small lesion at the paramedian pontine tegmentum in both cases and suggested involvement of the medial portion of the medial lemniscus.

Restricted acral sensory syndrome following minor stroke. Further observation with special reference to differential severity of symptoms among individual digits.
BACKGROUND Restricted acral sensory syndrome (RASS) after minor stroke most often manifests as a cheiro-oral syndrome. However, recent studies have described more varied patterns of RASS and also have reported that the degree of sensory symptoms may vary among individual digits. Until recently, however, there have been no reports in which sufficient numbers of patients were studied with detaile...

BACKGROUND AND PURPOSE Pure sensory stroke (PSS) usually is caused by a lacunar infarct; reports of PSS caused by cerebral hemorrhage have been rare. We correlated clinical and neuroradiologic findings in patients with PSS caused by cerebral hemorrhage. METHODS We retrospectively studied seven patients with appropriate clinical findings and lesions revealed by X-ray CT and MR imaging (five me...
متن کاملCheiro-Oral Syndrome: A Clinical Analysis and Review of Literature
PURPOSE After a century, cheiro-oral syndrome (COS) was harangued and emphasized for its localizing value and benign course in recent two decades. However, an expanding body of case series challenged when COS may arise from an involvement of ascending sensory pathways between cortex and pons and terminate into poor outcome occasionally. MATERIALS AND METHODS To analyze the location, underlyin...
متن کاملSmall Vessel Transient Ischemic Attack and Lacunar Infarction Detected with Perfusion-Weighted MRI
The clinical diagnosis of transient ischemic attack (TIA) or minor stroke is highly subjective, especially if the brain imaging does not reveal any evidence of ischemic lesion. Herein, I report a case of small vessel TIA and another case of lacunar infarction in which the ischemic lesions were detected with the perfusion-weighted magnetic resonance imaging (MRI). A 76-year-old woman presented w...
