Abstract

Recovery of Deglutition Disorder in Posterior Inferior Cerebellar Artery Stroke-A Case Reports

Highlights

  • Posterior Inferior Cerebellar Artery stroke is most commonly seen with dysphagia, dysarthria, and gait problems

  • A posterior circulation (PC) stroke is classically defined by infarction occurring within the vascular territory supplied by the vertebrobasilar (VB) arterial system

  • A constellation of neurological features, resulting from stroke in the vertebral or posterior inferior cerebellar artery of the brain stem, constitute Wallenberg syndrome [4]. It is called as lateral medullary syndrome or posterior inferior cerebellar artery syndrome

Summary

Introduction

Posterior Inferior Cerebellar Artery stroke is most commonly seen with dysphagia, dysarthria, and gait problems. In this we are presenting 2 patients who received combined Traditional therapy and vital stim therapy and only swallow rehabilitation therapy along with the recovery pattern. A constellation of neurological features, resulting from stroke in the vertebral or posterior inferior cerebellar artery of the brain stem, constitute Wallenberg syndrome [4]. The lateral region of the medulla oblongata presents the anterior lateral sulcus ventrally and the posterior lateral sulcus in the dorsal aspect. The pons flanks it rostrally and the cervical spinal cord caudally. Some of them are- the inferior cerebellar peduncle, vestibular nuclei, spinal trigeminal nucleus, descending sympathetic fibers, dorsal motor nucleus of the vagus nerve, lateral spinothalamic tract, nucleus ambiguous, solitary nucleus, medullary reticular formation, and central tegmental tract
