Popis: Stroke has a significant impact on the psychological and physical health of patients. Approximately 1%–4% of patients, movement disorders develop in the early post-stroke period. While chorea appears within hours of a stroke, post-stroke dystonia and tremor may develop after several months. Depression is generally observed in the post-stroke period; however, reports of atypical psychiatric symptoms, such as psychosis, in the early subacute-stroke period are rare. Herein, we demonstrate the case of a patient in whom parkinsonism symptoms and atypical psychiatric findings were found, which progressed to 3 and 2 weeks, respectively, after ischemic stroke.
