  • Title: Neurobehavioral changes following bilateral infarct in the caudate nuclei: a case report with pathological analysis.
    Author: Rodier G, Tranchant C, Mohr M, Warter JM.
    Journal: J Neurol Sci; 1994 Nov; 126(2):213-8. PubMed ID: 7853029.
    Abstract:
    A patient presenting with loss of psychic self activation (LPSA) was studied clinically and at autopsy. Clinically, the patient showed changes that can be ascribed to the interruption of frontal-subcortical circuits. Pathological analysis revealed bilateral lesions of the caudate nuclei. This case extends others based on radiological findings and confirms the importance of the caudate nuclei in behavioral functions.
