| Abstrakt: | Objective: The aim: The purpose of this study is to determine clinical and imaging features of lateral medullary infarction in a prospective hospital-based cohort study, illustrated with a clinical case presentation in a white adult. Patients and Methods: Materials and methods: We prospectively recruited 120 acute posterior circulation stroke patients, admitted to the Neurological Center of the University Hospital (Oleksandrivska Clinical Hospital) in Kyiv, Ukraine, within 6 to 24 hours from the onset of the stroke symptoms.
