Infarction of the Corpus Callosum: A Retrospective Clinical Investigation
OBJECTIVES The aim of this study was to investigate patients with ischemic infarctions in the territory of the corpus callosum to advance our understanding of this rare stroke subtype by providing comprehensive descriptive and epidemiological data. METHODS From January 1, 2010 to June 30, 2014, all cases of acute ischemic stroke diagnosed by clinical manifestation and diffusion weighted imagi...
متن کاملSplenial Lesions of the Corpus Callosum: Disease Spectrum and MRI Findings
The corpus callosum (CC) is the largest white matter structure in the brain, consisting of more than 200-250 million axons that provide a large connection mainly between homologous cerebral cortical areas in mirror image sites. The posterior end of the CC is the thickest part, which is called the splenium. Various diseases including congenital to acquired lesions including congenital anomalies,...
متن کاملClinicoradiological Spectrum of Reversible Splenial Lesion Syndrome (RESLES) in Adults
The presence of reversible lesions that involve the splenium of the corpus callosum (SCC) has been reported in patients with a broad spectrum of diseases and conditions and is referred to as reversible splenial lesion syndrome (RESLES).To describe the clinicoradiological features and establish a clinical position for this disease, we retrospectively examined the clinicoradiological features of ...
متن کاملTransient Splenial Lesions in the Splenium of Corpus Callosum in Seven Patients: MR Findings and Clinical Correlations
Transient reversible lesions (TSL) in the splenium of corpus callosum are often found on MR imaging, with the patients recovering without any neurologic defects after mild clinical courses (1). MR imaging have shown restricted diffusion in the central portion of splenium of corpus callosum (2). Many studies have presented the causing factors of TSL, defining hypothetic pathogenesis. These lesio...
متن کاملRestricted Diffusion in the Splenium of the Corpus Callosum After Cardiac Arrest
The value of MRI findings for coma prognostication is a question of great clinical and pathological relevance. We describe MRI evidence of restricted diffusion in the splenium in 5 patients with coma after cardiopulmonary resuscitation following cardiac arrest. The most common clinical presentation of corpus callosum lesions (of any cause) is altered mental status, consistent with the global im...
