Clarkson's syndrome, also known as idiopathic systemic capillary leak syndrome, is characterised by vascular hyperpermeability resulting in intravascular hypovolaemia and shock. A clinician should consider the diagnosis if other causes of shock, for example, sepsis and anaphylaxis, are ruled out and
Cortical infarction presenting with pure dysarthria is rarely reported. Previous studies have reported pure dysarthria due to cortical stroke at the precentral gyrus or middle frontal gyrus. We report a 72-year-old man who developed pure dysarthria caused by an acute cortical infarction in the
BACKGROUND
Pure dysarthria (PD) and dysarthria-facial paresis syndrome (DFP) mainly result from lenticulostriate artery territory infarction. PD and DFP are rare clinical entities, often grouped without distinction. The purpose of this study was to examine clinical and radiographic differences
We reported the case of a 77-year-old female who presented with left hypoglossal paresis and dysarthria due to a small cortical infarction. She was admitted to our hospital because of the sudden onset of dysarthria. A neurological examination revealed deviation of the tongue to the left and paretic
A 80 year old woman suddenly complained of dysarthria and clumsiness of the right hand. CT scan showed an infarct in the territory of the lateral branch of the right superior cerebellar artery. This dysarthria-clumsy hand syndrome in a patient with paroxysmal atrial fibrillation suggests that the
The aim of this study was to investigate whether the side and location of single small infarcts (< or = 3 cm) in the corona radiata (28 patients) and pontine base (36 patients) influence the incidence of contralateral upper or lower limb paresis and dysarthria. While the severity of contralateral
A patient suffering from bilateral thalamic infarction in the region supplied by the paramedian arteries sparing the internal capsules underwent acoustic analysis of sentence utterances. The results were compared with the findings obtained in parkinsonian subjects, in patients with upper motor
Using magnetic resonance imaging, we studied 6 patients with the dysarthria-clumsy hand syndrome. All were found to have pontine infarctions contralateral to the symptomatic side. Clinically, these patients exhibited dysarthria; "clumsiness," characterized by dysmetria, dysrhythmia,
We describe two patients, one with clumsy hand-dysarthria syndrome and one with ataxic hemiparesis. Both had pontine lesions on CT. Similar clinical syndromes may be seen with lesions of the internal capsule, and it is not possible to predict the lesion's location from clinical information alone.
A rare case of bilateral ventrolateral pontine infarction in a 70-year-old man who developed progressive dysarthria and bilateral sensory disturbance is reported with literature review. He had been diagnosed with hypertension, dyslipidemia, and impaired glucose tolerance 10 years earlier. Ten days
A 60-year-old man developed dysarthria in the morning. Neurological examination revealed no abnormality except for dysarthria. We diagnosed the patient as having a lacunar infarction. T2-weighted brain MRI revealed hyperintense lesion in the ventrolateral portion of the left upper pontine base. The
A 64-year-old hypertensive man presented with the dysarthria--clumsy hand syndrome, manifested by dysarthria, dysphagia, central facial weakness, deviation of the tongue on protrusion, incoordination of the affected hand, and mild imbalance on walking. A computed tomograpphic scan demonstrated a
Pure dysarthria caused by a small cortical infarction is rare. Recent reports have revealed that a small cortical lesion can lead to pure dysarthria, furthermore some reports have revealed that a middle frontal gyrus lesion might cause pure dysarthria. We report a 64-year-old woman who presented
Small cerebellar infarction with a benign outcome occurs more frequently than a massive infarction with brainstem compression. Retrospective CT studies have shown it. These infarcts are more often localized in the superior hemisphere of the cerebellum which semiology is not well known. Some reports
We compared locations of infarctions and clinical characteristics for patients with dysarthria and those without dysarthria. Subjects were 40 patients with a small infarction in the corona radiata or junctional zone to the capsule and 13 patients with infarctions in the internal capsule. Left corona
