Posterior Thalamic Hemorrhage Induces "Pusher Syndrome"
Neurol 64:1014-1019, Karnath,H-O., et al, 2005
See this aricle in Pubmed

Article Abstract
Posterior thalamus seems to be fundamentally involved in our control of upright body posture. Higher pressure, swelling, and other secondary pathologic processes associated with posterior thalamic hemorrhage (vs thalamic infarction) may provoke contraversive pushing in combination with additional neurologic symptoms.
