Q

anterior spinal artery occlusion, not in medulla

A

spinothalamic tract deficits

20
Q

artery of adamkiewicz provides collateral to what artery

A

anterior spinal artery

21
Q

anterior spinal artery occlusion in medulla

A

contralateral corticospinal deficits
contralateral medial lemniscus deficits
hypoglossal ipsilateral tongue flaccid paralysis

22
Q

posterior spinal artery occlusion

A

bilateral DCML

23
Q

corpus callosum lesion

A

transcortical apraxia causing the patient to be unable to move their L arm

24
Q

corpus callosum lesion involves what artery

A

anterior cerebral artery

25
Q

dorsolateral prefrontal lobe lesion

A

decreased attention
decreased abstract thinking
apathy

26
Q

if there is lesion in the dorsolateral prefrontal lobe, what aphasia occurs

A

Brocas

27
Q

orbitomedial prefrontal lobe lesion

A

explosive mood
withdrawn
fearful

28
Q

dominant parietal lobe lesion

A

difficulty finding location in familiar surroundings
difficulty deciding what to do first

29
Q

a large lesion in the dominant parietal lobe can cause __

A

Gerstmann syndrome

30
Q

Gerstmann syndrome involves what artery

A

middle cerebral

31
Q

Gerstmann syndrome symptoms

A

R-L disorientation
finger agnosia
acalculia
agraphia
alexia

*if alexia occur without agraphia, this involves L PCA occlusion and involves splenium of corpus callosum

*if alexia occurs with agraphia, this means the angular gyrus was involved

32
Q

nondominant parietal lobe lesion

A

anosognosia
astereognosia
constriction apraxia
hemineglect

33
Q

what occurs with parieto-occipital junction lesion

A

dorsal simultanognosia

34
Q

what occurs with dorsal simultanagnosia

A

patient lacks the ability to spatially recognize 2 or more objects at the same time

ex: patient may be unable to find a pencil on a cluttered table

35
Q

bilateral occlusion of what artery is the most common cause of dorsal simultanagnosia

A

posterior cerebral artery

36
Q

what occurs with occipito-temporal junction lesion

A

ventral simultanagnosia

37
Q

what occurs with ventral simultanagnosia

A

patient has difficulty with shape recognition and shape reproduction (can’t recognize context clues)

38
Q

occlusion of what artery is the most common cause of ventral simultanagnosia

A

posterior branches of posterior cerebral artery

39
Q

Broca aphasia involves __ lobe
Wernicke aphasia involves __ lobe

A

Broca- frontal
Wernicke- temporal

40
Q

conduction aphasia occurs when there is a deficit in connection between Wernicke and Brocas area involving what structure

A

arcuate fasciculus

41
Q

Balint’s syndrome is due to a lesion of what lobe

A

posterior parietal

42
Q

symptoms of Balint’s syndrome

A

optic ataxia
ocular apraxia
simultanagnosia

43
Q

what is prosopagnosia

A

lack of color recognition

44
Q

prosopagnosia involves occlusion of what artery

A

posterior cerebral in fusiform gyrus

45
Q

visual agnosia

A

inability to form association between objects and identity

ex: recognizing glasses as 2 circles and a bar instead of glasses

46
Q

what is ideomotor apraxia

A

inability to carry out a simple motor command (act as if you’re brushing your teeth)

47
Q

what is ideational apraxia

A

inability to execute a sequence of actions
