Article Abstract
Bilateral anterior opercular syndrome is clinically characterized by facio-pharyngo-glosso-masticatory diplegia due to bilateral opercular lesions.Reported cases of the syndrome have been relatively rare probably because of difficulty in determining opercular damage on clinical symptoms alone.We report a case of this syndrome in whom bilateral opercular damage could be detected not by CT,but suggested by SPECT,and confirmed by MR imaging.
