Abstract

Bilateral thalamic infarction is a rare cerebral vascular disease. The most common findings are acute impairment of consciousness, vertical gaze paresis, cognitive disturbances, and abnormal behavioral symptoms. In this paper, we report a case of bilateral thalamic infarction that resulted in abnormal behavior.
