| Core Tip |
Acute hemichorea is usually caused by lacunar infarcts in contralateral basal ganglia. We present a case of hemichorea due to ipsilateral thalamic infarction. A 72-year-old woman was admitted to our hospital with unilateral hemichorea and contralateral hemiparesis. Magnetic resonance imaging revealed a left thalamic infarction. The hemiparesis improved with rehabilitation physiotherapy, and the hemichorea subsided following treatment with haloperidol. The mechanism of ipsilateral hemichorea is poorly understood, but it could be because some fibers of the extrapyramidal system continue their ipsilateral course, passing through the thalamus, which is a relay station exerting control over motor function of both sides. |
