Title Wrong Side Gaze Deviation After Frontal Lobe Hemorrhage
Creator Sharpe, James A; Bondar, Roberta L; Fletcher, William A
Subject Cerebral Hemispheric Lesions; Ipsilateral Conjugate Deviation; Paresis of Contralateral Version; Wrong Side Gaze Deviation; Frontal Lobe Hemmorrhage
Description Acute unilateral cerebral hemispheric lesions often cause ipsilateral conjugate deviation of the head and eyes and paresis of contralateral version. Although the transient cerebral gaze palsy is often attributed to frontal lobe lesions, pathological confirmation of lesions confined to the frontal lobe is not available. Brief deviation of the eyes away from the side of a cerebral lesion can be a manifestation of epileptic discharge. Sustained contralateral deviation is a feature of hemorrhage into the caudal thalamus. We document prolonged contralateral gaze deviation in a patient with a discrete hematoma confined to the frontal lobe.
