Figure 11

Schematic showing the directions of subjective visual vertical (SVV) tilt and postural deviation in pusher syndrome. In these patients, SVV and postural vertical perception deviate away from the side of the lesion (X), matching the direction of postural tilt (i.e., lateropulsion) as well as the pushing behavior toward the paretic side. Therefore, patients with pushing behavior seem to actively align their body with erroneous upright and postural estimates.
