Abstract
Stroke can lead to various late-presenting complications that manifest weeks to months after acute stroke. While sexual dysfunction is common among stroke patients, hypersexuality and paraphilia are rare manifestations. This case series presents five cases of paraphilia showing the onset of abnormal sexual behaviors following an incident of stroke. The paraphilias in these five cases include sexual sadism, exhibitionism, transvestic fetishism, sexual masochism, fetishism, and zoophilia. Each case presents a unique manifestation of atypical sexual tendencies along with neuroimaging data and treatment approach. This case series contributes to the knowledge about the relationship between the incidence of stroke and the onset of paraphilia.
