Primary pontine hemorrhage and the dysarthria-clumsy hand syndrome

Departments of Neurology, the Beth Israel Medical Center (Drs. Tuhrim, Rubinowitz, and Weinberger) and the Mount Sinai School of Medicine (Drs. Tuhrim and Weinberger), and the Department of Radiology, the Beth Israel Medical Center (Dr. Yang), New York, NY.

The dysarthria-clumsy hand syndrome is attributed to a lacunar infarct in the medial pons. A 68-year-old man with this syndrome had CT evidence of a small hemorrhage. The site of lesion, not the cause, produces the syndrome.
