    Author: Iwasaki Y, Kinoshita M.
    Journal: Comput Med Imaging Graph; 1988; 12(6):359-63. PubMed ID: 3208239.
    Abstract:
    We examined case of intracerebral hemorrhage presenting as lacunar syndrome. Of 115 cases, 10 presented with a lacunar syndrome: 3 presented with pure motor hemiparesis, 1, pure sensory stroke, 1, ataxic hemiparesis, 5, sensorimotor stroke, and, none, dysarthria--clumsy hand syndrome. The sites of hemorrhage were capsular in 1, pontine in 1, thalamic in 4, and putaminal in 4. In these 10 patients, 9 were hypertensive, and the signs characteristics of parenchymal hemorrhage, e.g., headache, nausea, vomiting, and stiffness of neck, were absent or rare.
