A | B |
left MCA superior division | right face and arm weakness of the upper motor neuron type, and nonfluent or Broca's aphasiaa |
Left MCA inferior division | Fluent or Wernicke's aphasia and right visual field defect; there may also be some right face and arm cortical-type sensory loss |
Left MCA deep territory | right pure motor hemiparesis of the upper motor neuron type. Larger infarcts may produce cortical deficits as well, such as aphasia |
Left MCA stem | ight pure motor hemiparesis of the upper motor neuron type,with right hemiplegia, right hemianesthesia, right homonymous hemianopia and global aphasia. |
Right MCA superior division | left face and arm weakness of UMN type. Left hemineglect as well as left face and arm cortical type sensory loss to variable extent |
Right MCA inferior division | profound hemineglect |
Right MCA deep territory | left pure motor hemiparesis of the UMN type |
Right MCA stem | left pure motor hemiparesis of UMN type and left: hemiplegia,hemianesthesia, homonymous hemianopia and profound left hemineglect, usually right gaze preference |
Left ACA | Right leg weakness UMN type; right leg cortical sensory loss, grasp reflex, frontal lobe behavior abnormalities transcortical aphasia |
Right ACA | Left leg weakness UMN type; left leg cortical sensory loss, grasp reflex, frontal lobe behavior abnormalities and left hemi neglect |

extension of PCA infarct to splenium of corpus callosum | alexia without agraphia |
larger infarcts of left PCA including thatlamus and internal capsule | aphasia, right hemisensory loss and right hemiparesis |
larger infarcts of left PCA including thatlamus and internal capsule | right hemisensory loss and right hemiparesis |
