2 68 Left hemisphere cerebral atrophy, mostly involving left frontal lobe and mild atrophy of left temporal lobe Right hand hemiparesis 5 years
3 63 Mild left frontal atrophy Right arm hemiparesis 4 years
Stroke 1 55 Ischemic stroke in left MCA distribution, involving left frontal lobe, inferior left parietal and temporal cortices, mildly affecting left insula and basal ganglia Right arm hemiparesis 5 years
2 35 Hemorrhagic stroke in left MCA distribution, involving frontal ventral white matter, temporal and parietal cortices, as well as basal ganglia Right arm hemiparesis, shuffling gait, mild oral apraxia 3 months
