Isolated Hand Palsy Due to Cortical Infarction: Localization of the Motor Hand Area Neurol 58:1412-1414, Takahashi,N.,et al, 2002 See this aricle in Pubmed Article Abstract The authors investigated the lesions and symptoms of five patients who presented with monoparesis of an upper limb due to cortical infarction. The location of the cortical motor hand area seems to be in the middle to lower portion of the an terior wall of the central sulcus. Severity of finger paralysis associated with impairment of this area varied in different fingers and occurred in two patterns: one variant predominantly affected the radial side, and the other predominantly affected the ulnar side.
