Abstract
Babinski–Nageotte syndrome is one of the variants of lateral medullary syndrome (LMS) with contralateral hemiparesis along with classical LMS findings. The simultaneous occurrence of ipsilateral central facial nerve palsy and contralateral hemiparesis is an extremely rare occurrence in LMS. We report the case of a 46-year-old male who presented with complaints of acute onset of vertigo, right-sided (ipsilateral) Horner syndrome, facial sensory loss, upper motor neuron facial nerve palsy, ataxia, and left hemiparesis (contralateral). Magnetic resonance imaging brain suggested acute infarct of the right dorsal medulla and medial aspect of the right cerebellar tonsil with attenuation of the distal segment of the right vertebral artery and right posterior inferior cerebellar artery.
