Annals of Neurology
|July 1, 1977
Summary
This study reports a rare case of acute encephalopathy with both macro square-wave jerks and macro saccadic oscillations. The macro square-wave jerks showed a unique "inverse latent" characteristic, disappearing with monocular viewing.
Area of Science:
- Neuroscience
- Ophthalmology
- Neurology
Background:
- Acute encephalopathy can cause various neurological deficits.
- Ocular motor disturbances often indicate cerebellar and brainstem dysfunction.
