Popis: We present the report of a young male patient who was diagnosed with acute bilateral medial medullary infarction (MMI) on diffusion-weighted magnetic resonance imaging (DW-MRI). Corroboration with the apparent diffusion co-efficient (ADC) map enabled timely and accurate diagnosis of the rare stroke syndrome. On follow up 9 months after the diagnosis and subsequent treatment, the patient showed significant improvement on all fronts.
