Internet J Neurol 9, Celik, Y.,et al, 2007
See this aricle in Pubmed

Article Abstract
Bilateral paramedian thalamic infarctions are associated with several neuro-psychiatric manifestations besides from neurological, neuro-ophthalmological and pathological signs. Peduncular hallucinosis is rarely seen among these neuropsychiatric symptoms. Peduncular hallucinosis is especially associated with upper brain stem lesions in the literature. We report a case of 20-year-old man who had vivid, active, and colorful hallucinations, somnolence, and amnesia. We detected bilateral paramedian infarction in cranial magnetic resonance imaging due to Behcet�s disease and discussed the symptoms seen in the lesions of this region.
