• Surgical Procedure

  The first recorded surgical procedure for relief of central thalamic pain, a spinothalamic cordotomy, was performed by Frazier in 1937 ( Frazier et al 1937 ). [medlink.com]

With the advancement of medical science, nowadays, early diagnosis and early initiation of treatment, and the use of rehabilitative services, medial medullary syndrome has a fair prognosis. [ncbi.nlm.nih.gov]

Etiology These syndromes are classically caused by ischemic strokes that occur secondary to occlusion of small perforating arteries of the posterior circulation, however many have also been described secondary to hemorrhage, neoplasm, and demyelination [radiopaedia.org]

The high prevalence of arterial hypertension or diabetes mellitus as an isolated risk factor of stroke in small-sized AChA infarcts suggests that small artery disease is a common etiology of AChA territory infarcts. [cambridge.org]
