Abstract:
Three patients with a postural tremor caused by a thrombosis in the area of the thalamo-geniculate arteries are presented. The tremor disappeared completely after ventrolateral thalamotomy. The result persisted also after a follow up of more than 5 years. The location of the lesion causing the tremor is discussed.
