A Diffusion-Weighted MRI Study of Acute Ischemic Distal Arm Paresis
Neurol 57:1589-1594, Gass,A.,et al, 2001
See this aricle in Pubmed
Article Abstract
Acute ischemic distal arm paresis is usually caused by a small cortical lesion in the motor hand cortex attributable to distal Rolandic artery obstruction without additional tissue at risk. These findings confirm the observed benign clinica l course and its apparent main cause (artery-to-artery or cardiac embolism.
