  • Title: Neurological syndrome following bilateral damage to the head of the caudate nuclei.
    Author: Richfield EK, Twyman R, Berent S.
    Journal: Ann Neurol; 1987 Dec; 22(6):768-71. PubMed ID: 3435086.
    Abstract:
    We describe a persistent behavioral disorder associated with bilateral destruction of the head of the caudate nuclei. The findings in this case support a role for the caudate nuclei in behavioral functions and are interpreted in view of recent anatomical and physiological information on the connections of the caudate nuclei with the prefrontal cortex.
