  • Title: [Characteristics of spontaneous nystagmus in supratentorial ischemic foci of the brain].
    Author: Makushkina OV.
    Journal: Vestn Otorinolaringol; 2004; (5):21-4. PubMed ID: 15602481.
    Abstract:
    A spontaneous nystagmus (SN) was studied in 50 patients with hemispheric ischemic stroke in the territory of the middle cerebral artery. SN in acute disorders of cerebral circulation in the cerebral hemispheres occurs much more frequently than that in the foci of volume genesis. This may be related with the rate of the pathological process development. SN in ischemic stroke of supratentorial location may be explained by progression of general brain symptoms, secondary involvement of the brain stem and acute impairment of the compensatory mechanisms.
