  • Abstract
  • Look Inside

A 64-year-old woman presented with sudden onset of disequilibrium and dysarthria. Two days later she became lethargic and tetraparetic. An emergency MRI disclosed multiple infarctions in the medulla oblongata and pons. An angiogram revealed severe stenosis of the rostral basilar artery. The patient underwent a rap-idly progressive course with impaired consciousness and flaccid tetraplegia. MR images 7 days after the on-set disclosed a symmetrical midbrain infarction that was localized mainly in the cerebral peduncles, sug-gesting a distal basilar artery occlusion as the cause of this pathology.
