MRI correlates of alien leg-like phenomenon in corticobasal degeneration

William T Hu et al. Mov Disord. 2005 Jul.

Abstract

We describe the clinical and neuroradiologic correlates in two patients with the clinical picture of CBD and alien leg phenomena. The MRI brain scan in both had unique focal abnormalities in the corresponding leg area of the homunculus that may be the substrate for the alien limb features.
