    Author: Nowak DA, Griebl G, Dabitz R, Ochs G.
    Journal: J Clin Neurosci; 2010 Nov; 17(11):1441-2. PubMed ID: 20655752.
    Abstract:
    The bilateral anterior opercular (Foix-Chavany-Marie) syndrome is a rare condition most commonly encountered after bilateral middle cerebral artery stroke. Clinically, the syndrome is characterised by a loss of voluntary control of the facio-pharyngeo-glosso-masticatory muscles, while reflex movements and limb strength are preserved. We report the clinical presentation of a patient with anterior biopercular syndrome due to a bilateral middle cerebral artery stroke.
