|
•Astroke in the cortical distribution of one ACA results in sensorimotor deficitin the opposite foot and leg. Urinary incontinence and contralateral frontallobe signs may also be observed.•Astroke in the cortical distribution of the MCA results in a severe sensorimotordeficit in the contralateral face and upper limb. With dominant hemisphereinvolvement, global aphasia also results; with nondominanthemisphere involvement, the neglect syndrome or amorphosynthesisresults. •Clinically,the lenticulostriatevessels are the most common site of spontaneous hypertensive hemorrhage inindividuals with long-standing hypertension.•Astroke in the distribution of the vertebral artery (or the PICA) results in an ipsilateralloss of pain and temperature sensations in the face; contralateral loss of painand temperature sensation in the limbs, trunk, and neck; an ipsilateralHorner syndrome; hoarseness; dysphagia; nystagmus;vertigo;diplopia; ipsilateral ataxia; and ipsilateralloss of taste. This combination of signs is the lateral medullary or Wallenberg syndrome.•Astroke in the cortical distribution of the PCA results in a contralateralhomonymous hemianopsia.With dominant (usually left) hemisphere involvement, reading and writingabnormalities also result. •Thelargest radicular artery is the so-called artery of Adamkiewicz,which generally enters the spinal cord in the lower thoracic or upper lumbararea. Clinically, this area of the spinal cord is susceptible to vascularinsult should this radicular artery be compromised.•Astroke in the distribution of the anterior spinal artery results in thedevelopment of total motor paralysis and dissociated sensory loss below thelevel of the lesion. The sensory loss, if dissociated (loss of pain andtemperature but no involvement of position and vibration sense), is caused bysparing of the dorsal columns supplied by the posterior spinal arteries.
