Area of Science:

  • Neurology
  • Neuroimaging
  • Vascular Neurology

Background:

  • Ataxic tetraparesis is a rare neurological syndrome.
  • Traditionally, this syndrome has been associated with pontine lesions.

Observation:

  • A 42-year-old male patient presented with ataxic tetraparesis.
  • Neuroimaging revealed specific lesion locations.

Findings:

  • Computerized tomography demonstrated bilateral and symmetrical lacunar infarcts.
  • These infarcts were located at the junctions of the posterior limb of the internal capsule and the corona radiata.

Implications:

  • This presentation expands the known lesion locations for ataxic tetraparesis.
  • Highlights the importance of considering supratentorial lesions in the differential diagnosis.
  • Suggests potential new pathways or mechanisms underlying ataxic tetraparesis.
