Babinski-Nageotte Syndrome on Magnetic Resonance Imaging Stroke 22:272-275, Nakane,H.,et al, 1991 See this aricle in Pubmed Article Abstract A 70-year-old woman developed left hypoglossal nerve palsy,a right hemiparesis sparing the face,and a typical left Wallenberg's syndrome. These symptoms resulted from a lesion in the left half of the medulla oblongata,suggesting Babinski-Nageotte syndrome,a rare cerebrovascular disease.This is the first case of ischemic infarction in the territory of the left vertebral artery and posterior inferior cerebellar artery demonstrated on magnetic resonance imaging.Severe bilateral lesions of the distal vertebral arteries demonstrated on digital subtraction angiography may have contributed to the development of this syndrome.
