Abstract

Percheron artery syndrome is characterized by infarction at the paramedian nucleus of the thalamus and mesencephalon. Its classical triad comprises altered mental status with various clinical findings ranging from confusion to coma, restricted vertical gaze, and impaired memory. In this study, three cases of occlusion of the Percheron's artery were presented along with their clinical and magnetic resonance findings. Their treatment additionally included infusion of amantadine, and its positive effect on the prognosis was assessed. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
