  • Title: [Persistence of a conjugate eye and head deviation of hemispheric origin].
    Author: de Smet Y, Kraus J.
    Journal: Rev Neurol (Paris); 1988; 144(10):603-5. PubMed ID: 3194608.
    Abstract:
    The conjugate eye and head deviation (CD) after acute hemispheric stroke normally resolves into poor days, but delayed recovery may occurs after previous contralateral frontal lobe damage or after acute right parietal lesion. This is a report of a ten months persistent CD at rest, without visual or auditory stimuli. CT showed a bilateral capsular infarct of the genu and a recent right frontal posterior infarct. The persistence of the deviation may thus be explained by such a combination of bilateral anterior lesions.
