[Abnormal movements of vascular origin].

J M López Arlandis, J A Burguera, F Coret

    Neurologia (Barcelona, Spain)
    |November 1, 1989

    Summary

    Vascular-related chorea and dystonia present differently after stroke. Chorea symptoms resolve quickly, while dyskinesia types don't pinpoint lesion location or type.

    Area of Science:

    • Neurology
    • Neuroscience
    • Vascular Neurology

    Context:

    • Dyskinesias, including hemichorea and dystonia, can arise from cerebrovascular events.
    • Understanding the relationship between lesion type, location, and dyskinesia presentation is crucial for diagnosis and management.

    Purpose:

    • To report on patients with hemichorea and dystonia of vascular origin.
    • To analyze the clinical presentation, lesion characteristics, and outcomes in these patients.

    Summary:

    • This study details three cases of hemichorea and ten of dystonia linked to vascular brain lesions (ischemic infarcts, lacunar infarcts, intraparenchymal hematoma).
    • Chorea patients experienced abrupt onset post-stroke with regressive evolution and good treatment response, unlike dystonia patients.
    • Dyskinesia type was not indicative of lesion localization or nature. Multiple lesions, archaic reflexes, and cortical atrophy were observed in some patients, highlighting the role of overall impairment.
    • Sensory deficits were present in seven patients. Computed tomography (CT) limitations in detecting focal lesions were noted in two cases with prior hemiparesis.

    Impact:

    • The findings emphasize that while dyskinesias indicate neurological dysfunction, their specific type may not precisely localize the vascular lesion.
    • The study underscores the limitations of CT in identifying all focal cerebral lesions causing movement disorders.
    • Recognizing these patterns aids in understanding the pathophysiology of vascular-induced movement disorders and informs diagnostic approaches.
