Chorea caused by caudate infarction

S Saris. Arch Neurol. 1983 Sep.

Abstract

An ischemic infarct in the caudate nucleus was associated with a contralateral chorea in a 47-year-old, hypertensive, diabetic man. To my knowledge, this is only the second report of isolated caudate infarction associated with chorea. Computed tomography demonstrated the basal ganglion lesion.
