Cervical dystonia caused by focal putaminal ischemia
We describe a 48‐year‐old woman with putaminal gliosis and a sphenoid wing meningioma at the left, who developed dystonia restricted to cervical regions. We propose the following causal chain: the meningioma led to an occlusion of a lenticulo‐striatal branch of the middle cerebral artery that caused...

description | We describe a 48‐year‐old woman with putaminal gliosis and a sphenoid wing meningioma at the left, who developed dystonia restricted to cervical regions. We propose the following causal chain: the meningioma led to an occlusion of a lenticulo‐striatal branch of the middle cerebral artery that caused ventral putaminal ischemia and finally resulting in symptomatic dystonia. The previously reported relevance of the infarcted regions to the pathophysiology of dystonia supports this assumption. Implications for the diagnostic procedure of dystonia will be discussed. |
